Your truck has a Gross Combined Weight Rating (GCWR) of 15,300 lbs. This means the combined weight of your truck & contents (including fuel and any occupants) and the trailer & contents is not supposed to exceed that legal maximum.
This means that, even empty, your truck is not legally rated to pull that trailer when it's fully loaded. What this really means is that if you have a wreck and anyone figures out you were over the GCWR, you will be vulnerable to a lawsuit.
