I am not an expert, but will give you my limited knowledge.
I have a 2005 Yukon, with the 5.3 L and 3.42 Axle. I bought a KZ TT that weighs 4575DW. I towed it home from the dealer along I-44 through Springfield, MO around 200 miles.
Granted it was unloaded and just the DW and myself in the cab, around 450 pounds of passengers. We had no problems towing the trailer. I easily maintained 60-65 mph up 6% grades without downshifting or searching.
If you load up your TV with a lot of gear and have a heavily loaded TT, then you may have issues.
If you travel light, likely, no problems at all,
ETA My Yukon has the HD tow factory package.
