The thing to be careful about is transmission heat. 
Pulling this thing on the highway is going to make it
work hard and transmissions are usually okay with it,
provided they keep cool.  I recommend speeds of no
more than 65 mph.  You can go faster than that, but do
not do it for long periods of time.  Don't be hauling
ass across the country while pulling a 1800 lbs
trailer.

It also will help things to keep it out of overdrive. 
3rd gear is what I would use.  If you know you have a
good tail wind, OD will be okay.

Many times you can pull double what the vehicle
manufacturer recommends, but you have to know what you
are doing.  Mountains, lots of stop and go?  Head
wind?  That transmission fluid smells like its burning.....
