There are quite a few 1/2 ton tow able FWs out there. Your HD 1/2 is one of the most capable.
I have seen some light weight FWs (under 7,000#s empty), that had a dry pin weight over 1500#s. It makes a difference on the placement of the trailer axles. If you stay with a dry pin of 12-13 hundred, it would work for you.
You should know your generator weight, and about 40#s for 5 gal can of gas.
Usually there is good storage in a FW basement, but much of that weight will transfer to the pin. You will have to manage weight, unless you find a FW, with 1,000# dry pin.
You were wise to weigh your truck, and it would be nice if you could weigh hooked up to a FW before purchase, but that is often not possible.
Good luck,
Jerry
