The combined weight of passengers and cargo in my Yukon should not exceed 1412lbs. Tow capacity is 8000lbs.
Don't get stuck on that 8000 lbs tow capacity. That number was calculated with only a driver, who weighs 150 lbs. No cargo or passengers. As you load up the vehicle with people, cargo, and hitch weight, your max tow capacity is going down, along with your available payload. 1400 lbs of people and cargo would cut your tow capacity to 6600.
Your move toward a 5000 lb trailer, would be a much better fit.
