Hate to break it to you, but that is probably too much trailer for a 1500. According to the Trailer Life towing guides, the towing capacity for this vehicle is somewhere between 7500 and 8500 pounds, depending on configuration. So the unloaded vehicle weight of the trailer is already getting close to the max weight of the 1500. By the time you add propane, water, groceries, clothes, and other cargo, you'll exceed the capacity of the truck.
You don't say if this unit is a fifth wheel (FW) or travel trailer (TT). Either way, you also have considerations on the payload that the truck can handle.
