i haul a small JD tractor and loader on a 16' lowboy trailer behind my 1993 F-150 5.0 v-8 and never had any problems. not a long distance, but a lot of low hills and lots of traffic (stop and go). total weight on my trailer is approx 3400 lbs and the trailer weight is 1500 lbs so that makes close to 5000 lbs of towing plus the truck weight of 4200 lbs. the GCWR is 11,500 lbs. i would believe you should be able to haul your load comfortably. just take it easy for a while to get used to the load. and make sure you have trailer brkaes hooked and working properly. i believe it's required in most states.
