You’d getter better responses if we knew what the weights are that are listed on the two stickers on the drivers door of your truck. There are several weight ratings on theses two stickers.
For good reliable answers, let us know what all of those ratings are.
For wild ass guesses - carry on as is.

Good idea!
That way all the rvnet weight cops have yet another persons situation to pontificate and overanalyze..... and argue about and pontificate even more about past near death experiences and bring up things they feel are the law when they aren’t.....
OP, presume your truck is a 5.0 orEco boost. Either with a tow package will comfortably pull a 7klb TT. As good as any 1/2 ton gasser will anyways.
Around 5k dry weight is a good starting point and will not end up being too big for the truck’s britches.
Fuel mpg is more about wind resistance and weight than length. I wouldn’t expect any significant mileage difference simply due to 4’ in length and say 500lbs.
Sounds like an awesome trip planned! Have fun camper shopping!
