Agree that on paper it's doable. V10 is a very good load toting engine and so's the 6.0 Chevy.
Dolly puts very little hitch weight onto your coach and probably weighs 500 or so. You can use the manufacturer's advertised weight for the dolly, but weigh the car and coach.
Much of this will have to do with your expectations and where you plan to go. You should be good in the midwest, east, and south. Out in the mountains, you'll know you're in a heavy coach no matter what it is, and much more so with another 4000 behind it. As I said, V10 pulls well and has a great cooling system. Will definitely get you there, anywhere. No coach will climb mountains like a car.
