Thank a lot glad to be here!
Congrats! If (when) its time to upgrade your truck, let her pick the color and options... It will help lessen the sting of: "why do we need a new truck!!!?" j/k

Your truck currently weighs in the neighborhood of 5490. As JRTJH spelled out, passengers, cargo, hitch, etc., all add up quickly when trying to calculate your available payload and what you can tow, ~after~ getting everything loaded.

Another thing to keep in mind is the GCWR (combined weight when towing)
