Default Towing Concern

Hi all,
I recently came across TrailManor and am very interested in buying one. The problem which might not be a problem at all is I own a 1995 Nissan extended cab pickup with a V6. It is in very good condition just over 130,000 miles and I just finished a valve job and it runs great. I have a Reese bolt in hitch rated at 5,000 lbs and the vehicle is rated it 3,500 lbs towing capacity. I used to two a ski boat all over California and never gave it a thought. So my question is how will my towing experience be with a TrailManor camper? I will probably put a new radiator and add a transmission cooler to my truck. Also electric brake control and if necessary some air bags or whatever is the best solution for a little extra weight.
Please give me some feedback.
Eventually we will get a better tow vehicle so if I have to go slow until then its OK. I would rather buy the bigger TrailManor and go slow until I can get a newer tow vehicle. I am getting pretty excited about the purchase. Years ago we had a Winnebago and we sure miss going camping. Thanks to all.
