You going to do what you want but if you weight it, I bet you will find you are over weight on the rear axle and GVWR or the truck (7,200#) so about 1,600# of payload. Dry hitch weight was 1,440# but a gross trailer is closer to 9,000# and pin weight will be closer to 1,900#. That's before you added the hitch and passengers. Good news with a GCVWR of 16,000# you are probably under that.

Good luck and be safe.
