Every situation is different, and we can make all the assumptions we want, but the fact of the matter is the OP needs to get weighed properly to determine exactly where his weights are. Guessing can get us somewhat close some of the time, but a proper weighing is in order. Then he can figure out what he needs to do to get safe, if anything.
I have a similar truck (sig below), and a lighter trailer. I have all the power I could ever need, and good brakes, but towing it across Kansas on I-70 a few weeks ago in that wind was white-knuckle all day long. Piece of cake in the Rockies to almost 11000 feet, and everywhere else, but that crosswind blew me all over the place. That day I sure wished I had my SuperDuty back.
