New to towing. Speed? Weight?

My husband and I are new to towing. We are preparing to tow our travel trailer for the first time, and we have a few questions.

First - the specs:
Trailer - 1974 23' Prowler
Truck - 1989 Chevy Suburban

My husband is going to be the one driving, and he would like to know how we can find out the max. speed he can drive on the freeway. We're not filling up any of the tanks, so max. tow weight probably won't be an issue.
We don't have the manual to the trailer, so we're kind of clueless to the standard operating procedure of this year and model.

Your max speed on any road in Wa. is 60mph. Your burbon will do fine, that is what they were built to do. You can fill every tank in the trailer and be OK. be care full on the Ferries, at lowest tides the trailer may drag coming off the ramp.
If the Suburban sags in the rear, get a equalizer hitch, many at much lower costs on E-bay.
Have fun, stay out of the left lanes on the freeway.
