Default 2015 screw 5.0 4x4 towing

I have a 2015 F150 Lariat 4x4 S.Crew 5.0 & 3.55 gears and tow/haul. I am buying a travel trailer. The one I'm looking at is 28' (33.5' with the tongue). Dry weight is 6500. Tongue weight is 630. Est another 1k in trailer for gear puts it at 7500 Est tongue at 900 & 750 for people & dog. Gives payload of 1650. Sticker on door states 1894. With a weight distributing hitch @ approx 100=1750lbs of payload and 7500 in trailer. Rated to pull 9100 lbs. Will this truck be ok or do I need to go with less on the trailer? Thanks for any help.

I have about the same truck except different gears, my camper ways about the same and it pulls it just fine. I pulled it 400+ miles with no issues. Just don't get in a hurry and look for gas stations with easy entrances and exits.
