I tow a little in the mtns of NC and have found nothing to be a problem. Just remember going down hill stakes a little longer to stop load.

Well I get around 10 towing at over 5000 ft. up to over 10,000 ft. And it's 4WD and I pull over 6000lbs. I've got a 5.4 w/ 3.73s. I always turn off the OD when towing. Keep it @ or below 70mph on the hwy.
