Way to little information. Really.

yellow tag on drivers door.. has truck towing ability and limits..

trailer has a tag .. outside. and inside a kitchen cabinet..
trailer weight ( EMPTY ) and tongue weight...

my Coachmen 30 foot trailer is 8,300 pounds and YOURS will be different.
mine loaded for a trip is a little over 9,000 pounds. and a tongue weight of 1,400 pounds.

so most 1500 would not do my trailer.
