Will be using TT mostly for local river and park camping in FL.
Assuming a 3,500# fully loaded TT you would have approximately 665# of remaining payload, (passengers and gear), after deducting the tongue and hitch weight. Not a lot but possibly sufficient if you do not load the SUV too heavily. The fact that you will be using it primarily in (flat), Florida helps a lot as well.
That your SUV is a high quality (Lexus), is just another positive. Sounds doable to me. I didn't mean to be the voice of doom and gloom but of caution, as running over limits is never a good idea.
