My truck can tow up to 8500lbs.
You haven't provided any details about your truck but if you're quoting it's so-called tow rating then it's easy to say - not a chance on the planet you should be towing that much trailer with this truck. :E If it's a typical 1/2 ton I wouldn't tow much more than ~ 6000 lbs fully loaded and ready to camp, otherwise gross tongue weight with a family and cargo in the truck will in most cases push the truck beyond it's payload capacity and probably it's Gross Rear Axle Weight Rating.
