Lots of hate for any FCA (or whatever they are called now) vehicles.
But I am a MOPAR fan. The Hemi has plenty of power to tow what you are asking. The ZF transmission is one of the best put in any vehicle today. It has a higher tow rating than most comparable SUVs. Which leaves the question of payload. I thought it was closer to 1400 pounds, but I would recommend that you look at the actual door sticker.
So, my short answer is, if you stay at that less than 5500 pound total trailer weight, and you only have 4 people, and you load heavy items (coolers and such) into the trailer, you will be under GVWR and the towing capacity.
