Real towing capacity of a 2001 Ranger 4.0L with tow package?

I just bought a 2001 Ranger supercab 4.0L, automatic with tow package. The dealer tells me that towing a 2500 lbs car and a 1700 lbs trailer is no problem for this truck. However, everyone else is saying no way! Everyone I talk to at the local trailer companies say that they think a Ranger will have a hard time with this, and will overheat on long trips. What is your experiance in towing with a 4.0L Ranger with automatic?

Thanks,

Paul
