Your trailer's tongue weight when loaded for camping is probably close to 800 lbs. Watch your payload. Note too that the trailer tires are probably rated for only 65 mph.
As for engine RPMs, do not hesitate to let the motor rev. The 5.3 makes it's best power around 4500. I'd install a trans cooler and temp gauge too.
