Too much trailer for the TV, I'm afraid. If the TT weighs 3890 (which is likely before they added any "extras,") and you add the 800-1000 lbs of water, clothes, food, etc, you will be above your maximum weight rating. Into the bargain, most folks here seem to be of the opinion that one ought not push that limit, as it makes for an unpleasant tow if you do find yourself in a head-wind or going over any significant hills.
The Flex with a 4500 lb gross trailer weight is much better suited to a smaller trailer.
