Default Looking for a new truck

I purchased a travel trailer primetime avenger 26bk that weighs 5000 pounds dry and my 99 with a 318 can pull it but it's struggling a lot to tow it. I found this truck (see link below) and just want to make sure I can pull it safely before I buy a new truck. I got the build sheet already and it looks like it has the tow package already, the only downfall it has 3.55 gears.

Tow rating for that one is right about 7700 pounds..... I think that'll be pushin' it.
