Read my post again, not referring to your truck but your new trailer's limited CCC. :R

Oh, habit of 13 years of tow police going after my Subaru and pop up. Yes, that 650 doesn't seem like much but we primarily use our trailer as a rolling motel room. We should be OK.
"Weight police", "tow police", are tired, old terms still used by those wanting to justify a towing combination that can be inadequate for any one of a number of reasons ... and are a waste of time. :R In this case it would seem your only option is to pack lightly - really lightly - as you're going to lose some of that brochure advertised CCC right off the bat, as will clearly be demonstrated by comparing it's brochure dry weight to it's actual sticker UVW. Add to that a battery or two, some water, perhaps in propane in the tanks and the situation will be even worse - not a whole lot of CCC remaining. As I said, congrats for moving up to the world of travel trailers a.k.a. The Darkside - but keep an eye on that cargo load. ;)
