The TM web site 2007 towing guide says that you are OK using that Tow Vehicle for up to 5000# of trailer weight. TM also makes a big point that you will need no sway stabilization or WDH. Unfortunately they do not discuss performance of the TV in the mountains. Possibly the V-6 will not give good climbing ability.

According to the advertised ratings for the TM 2619 it is limited to 4023# of total weight of which 323# will be resting on the 4 runner hitch ball.

Other members of this site have experience with a TM 2720 which is only 50# heavier than the TM 2619. Hopefully you will hear from "harveyrv" or "PopBeavers" about their real life experience. In fact, I believe "harveyrv" published a very good TV calculation guide at:
