It is frustrating. I towed a 4,400 lb trailer with our Expy and I felt it was at its max even though I was at less than half its rating. With independent rear suspension and passenger car tires, it was too wiggly when towing. At a minimum, add a weight dist hitch with sway control. It will make it more comfortable to tow.
