Maximum tow speed for 6500 lbs Toy Hauler with two axles

Hi, Going to make a 2000+ miles round trip within 10 days time frame and wondering if there is any problem if I tow 75 mph provided road is flat, traffic is clear and normal wind condition. 65 mph ...

MY China bombs are clearly marked 75 mph maximum speed. The old "All ST tires are 65 mph limited" is no longer true.
That said, if I can get going and stay at 60-65 mph with the wind resistance and my current TV, I am literally a happy camper. Actually, when towing I'd even have to argue with the Red Rocker, I CAN drive 55!
There are a few ST tires rated at over 80mph. IIRC, Goodyear Endurance are rated ar 87MPH and there was another rated at 81 or 82, Carlisle I think.
Lots of variables.
