You'll be at 7500-8000 pounds loaded with 1000-1100 pounds of loaded TW. That puts your truck over tow rating and GCWR and I bet over rear axle and GVWR, maybe receiver too.
You'll need to get closer to 5500 pounds dry get under the tow rating/GCWR. Check your tire and loading sticker for as equipped payload. Subtract an estimate for your family's weight. Rest can be fore TW. Let's say 1400 pounds with a 500 pound family. That's 900 pounds loaded or 6500 pounds loaded TT.
