Sorry, but definitely not the right vehicle for the job. When I needed to move a motorcycle several years ago, I found out that U-Haul would not rent me a trailer. My 2002, V8 Explorer was not considered to be an acceptable tow vehicle. Part of their decision was the "rollover vs blowout" problem that Explorer and Firestone were fighting about They didn't want the liability.
I finally did rent a landscaper trailer from a local rental shop, but it was not a pleasant towing experience. You may want to also check your numbers. I may be wrong, but I believe my 2002 was rated at around 5000# max.
Good Luck
