Unfortunately you're really not going to get any useful information from this forum. Everybody's either going to try to convince you that you can tow anything, or you're going to die for even considering this. Neither is true, but few seem to be able to talk reasonably, and nobody listens to the ones with reasonable answers. It's all about glomming on to the person that tells you what you want to hear.

He was asking more about the wear n tear on an older pickup being an issue even though he's within reason on the overall trailer weight. He did not include enough information for any of us to give advice there, hence my comment about the truck's health and condition.
