Do you have any experience towing a large trailer?
If not, that's a heck of a maiden voyage. What are we talking, 2000 miles +/-, one way?
Weight shouldn't be a problem, that's a fairly light trailer by comparison. The truck should handle it. My 2003 AC owners manual says 7,100 lbs. towing.
You said you were getting a weight dist. hitch w/ anti sway bars, that will definately help stability.
I'm not exactly sure what you mean by plug n' play brake harness, but a good trailer brake controller is a must.
Hopefully some others with more towing experience will chime in for you.
You might check some of the RV forums for more insight - RV.NET or RVUSA.COM
