After pulling a 4700 lb dry weight trailer with an Expedition which rated at 8000 lbs, I honestly believe you're just over the edge of safety with that combination. Weight adds up fast in a loaded TT, and you could easily have an extra 1,000 lbs of people, stuff, and fuel in the TV. I saw somebody somewhere in an answer to a web question respond that the truck manufacturer's weight limits apply to everything you're carrying/pulling that was not assembled on the truck in the factory. Unfortunately when a salesperson at the dealer is trying to make a sale, many will often imply that the dry weight of the TT plus about a thousand lbs is all you've got to worry about. I actually had a salesman tell me that once when showing me a large TT.
