We towed our first TT (4500 lbs dry) with a 1/2 ton 1999 Expedition, 4.6L V8. I think it put out 200hp. The weak link in that setup was the tranny which was a dog.
Yours sounds like a pretty big V6, probably over 200 hp. With such a well geared transmission, I 'm betting that it would be able to tow a 4500 lb TT well enough.
Many many folks think that one needs a 3/4 ton for any TT. In the Rocky mts, maybe, but not in the east, my opinion.
