Need Towing Advice, PLEASE HELP

Hi,
I have a 2007 Ford Explorer Sport Trac v6 with class 3 hitch which by all paper work that I have read puts my max tow weight up around 5300-5500 lbs.

I am looking at purchasing a Flagstaff Micro Lite 21 FBRS travel trailer that has a dry weight of 4200 lbs.

Our family of 3 packs extremely lite. And I plan to empty all tanks and hot water heater before towing. I am estimating 300 lbs max supplies/luggage/and etc.

Do you believe that truck would be capable of pulling the camper?

Thank you all in advance!
