Previously I had a 8300 lb travel trailer (loaded weight) that I pulled with a 2012 Silverado. I was within specs , but not by much. Your gvwr and payload are about 200 lbs more than mine was, so I would think it is doable. Your truck has considerably more HP and torque than mine had, but mine pulled it OK. I would not want to pull it in the mountains all the time but around here it was good enough. As previously mentioned get a good weight distribution hitch with sway controll,
