Why are people assuming that the OP is going to tow a 5,000 pound trailer? That is the fictitious "dry weight" that salesman use to convince people it is "1/2 ton towable". The trailer will probably weigh close to 7,000 with 900 pound tongue weight if it is anything like similar trailers that I have owned and scaled.
