You can tow that. I would use a weight distribution hitch with it

x2 on danorules comment.

I have a TT that's 5200lb dry probably 7500 loaded and have no issues. Keep o/d off and expect 8-10 mpg's. She'll pull fine.

I have towed a 22ft enclosed trailer helping friends move. Routinely tow my dump trailer with a skid steer without an issue using my 150.
