I have a new truck and am looking to buy our first travel trailer.
The truck is a 2017 F150 3.5L EcoBoost w/ Max Trailer Tow Package, trailer break control and 11,700lb towing capacity with 1,737lb payload.
We want to get the Jay Flight 33RBTS linked below with UVW=8530lb, GCWR = 10,9050lb, dry hitch weight = 865lb.

Is this too much trailer for my truck? Does the length matter much for towing (we will be getting a 4 point WDH)?
Is this considered a 33 foot trailer, or a 37 foot trailer (i.e. do you count the box, or bumper to hitch)?
Thanks a lot!
