Welcome to the forum. I was kind of taken by your camper and tow vehicle. That is a LOT of camper for a 3/4 ton. Be safe.

Wasn’t really planning on a RV but one of those to good of a deal to pass up fell into my lap, it’s close to the max weight, if it doesn’t Handel it I’ll upgrade the TV.

Welcome to the forum! Lots of good folks here with tons of knowledge willing to share and learn.

I hate to bring this up on my response but it's pretty clear...and one of the things we do in case someone isn't aware.

That's a 16,500lb. RV, almost 42' long that you've got. The dry pin weight, with nothing in the trailer or truck, will be more I suspect than the available payload of your truck. The dry weight from the factory was right at 14k - and a 2760 pin weight...which it nor you will ever see. Look at that yellow and white placard inside the driver door and see if it doesn't say your payload is somewhere in the 3000lb. range...maybe. I have a 1 ton SRW with gas (extra payload) to carry a 14xxx gvw trailer...bought specifically to do so. That trailer needs a dually. Just a heads up.
