Basic rule many of us go by: look at trailers with gross weights at 80% of max tow rating. You exceed payload and and gross rear axle weights with campers. Gross tow ratings are designed for boats and flat bed trailers.
Using the 80% rule with best case 7500 rating: look for campers at the ready to camp weight of 4500 dry/6000 wet.
