Default Upcoming towing trip

I'm moving from North Carolina to Missouri next month and I'm going to tow my wife's car.

Truck specs: Super Crew 2015, 2.7l, 2wd, 3.31, completely stock.

Towing: 2,200 lbs trailer, 3,100 Volkswagen Jetta. Total 5,300 lbs.

Payload: 700ish lbs with people and stuff.

I know a lot of people are curious about the 2.7l performance. I plan to let y'all know how the truck does on this long trip (1000 miles) with MPG.

My only question is regarding tire pressure. I have 265/60/18s. Max pressure is 50. What is the best pressure to keep them at with this set up?

Put it at 50. My 2.7l does fine with 7500 pounds so you'll be ok
