Never exceed the GCRW of the towing vehicle.  Insurance companies will not cover if over.

Its not how fast you can go.. its how fast you can stop if trailer brakes fail. Long grades offer the biggest test.  Basic rule - never go faster on the down grade  than on the upgrade.   Diesels with engine retarders are helpful.

Everyone will have an opinion! It’s hard to beat a big diesel if you have a load like yours. I have a 07 F250 2wd camper special with 2000# of truckbed camper pulling 24’ enclosed trailer weighing at least 6500# without a sweat, gets 12mpg and sounds like a diesel truck. I also have a 17 F250 FX4 off-road that’s much more “sophisticated”. (Remember I’m in Texas). Also pulls like like there’s no trailer attached and gets 15+mpg towing. However. 800# tongue weight puts the suspension down on the stops. It needs air lifts if I tow more with it. 
Good luck!
