With your GMC 1500 you should be OK . Try it a couple times , you can always get a WDH tomorrow .

A lot depends on the TV you plan to use.
guys towing snowmobiles and multiple ATV's in 30' enclosed trailers usually tow direct to the ball .
My 30 ft enclosed is 5000# direct to the ball on a 2500HD. My 3500# enclosed gets towed direct to the ball on my 1500 Max Tow Package. Multiple 1000 mi round trips every season, never an issue using both setups .
5000# on the 1500, I would be using the WD hitch only because the rear would drop more than i like using it direct to the ball. I have a lot of gear and running it at max truck payload.
