Agree on the frontal area....check your manual and if not there, ask your dealer to get the true info for you. Many times there have been folks asking about the Highlander and it's towing capacities.

That cushion would put you over. Suggest you look at either a smaller Lance or a beefier tow vehicle. Finding out after the fact can be dangerous and/or expensive. Lots of research needed here.
