The Jeep Wagoneer might be able to do it. But 1500 in back and tongue weight of 7500 lb tt at the same time? Not sure anything but a HD crew cab can do that and be paper legal.
Def wouldn't be within the ratings for payload unless uber careful with loading and camper selection etc. But otherwise 100% capable of doing everything else the OP wants in his rig.
And, the new Waggoneer or Burb/Expedition are great choices save for one thing. They are all IRS axles now and most all have some air/self leveling suspension, making it somewhere between difficult and impossible to add any suspension helpers to them. Hence my warning about the rig being physically able to handle the tongue weight.
Not alot of experience here with folks testing the suspension limits on new 1/2 ton SUVs....more of a "get a dually" crowd tbh.
Nor do I know what the limits of these newer IRS rigs are either.
OP, any of the new/late model full size long wheelbase SUVs are a good fit for what you're wanting to do, save for the rear suspension.
If you're in the SUV camp, still, following this discussion, I'd try to find some real world suspension limits/upgrades info from folks who are pulling good size trailers with these rigs.
