Truck should handle trailer. If you are like Mitch, family of two, probably not an issue.
DETAILS.....
Are you like I was....family of six, with 4 adult sized teens, total 1209-1300 lbs...two Alaskan Malamutes at 300+ lbs including crates. A rack and canoe, generator, bikes in bed....hitch weight of trailer. All said and done, loading 3000+ lbs into and on the suspension of you truck.....Nissan makes a good truck.....but not that good!
All of a sudden, you need a SW 35 series rig as I did. If I would have had a longer trailer with dual 5k axles, I would have needed a dually from a payload needed standpoint!
Hence why someone was commenting abouts details needed.
