Lol. You know someone here will reccomend a 3/4 ton before the thread is over!
I'm shocked that hasn't happened yet! Those folks must all be busy today...
I agree with Bionic, it's a smaller trailer (I think you said only 3,000 pounds), don't overthink it.
Also, it's a truck.... Smaller rear gears, but other than that it's not a Prius, it's a truck and built to do things. So go ahead and start with a small trip and see how things go.
Another poster also suggested a new rear end from a salvage yard, that could be a nice simple and inexpensive solution as well.
