Good looking rig, reminds me of a Jeep Commander nice big SUV without being huge, plus a big powerful V8 and 7,500 lb tow capacity which is rigt around your 3500 kg (7700 lb) rating.Here's an English take on a towing rig.
We have much smaller roads here, and a lot less space, so I guess this looks a bit small to some of you.
2006 Landrover Defender 110, 2.5 litre 5-cyl turbo diesel.
Trailer is an ancient Ifor Williams flat bed with homemade drop sides and hay ladders. The deck is 12' x 6'6". Max laden weight is 3500kg.
Maximum legal towing weight for this kind of vehicle in the UK is 3500kg, and the Defender is rated to tow all of that

Thank y'all for the compliments. The truck is a 2012 3500 longhorn. 4.10 gears made a huge difference over my 2011 with 3.73s. I have the truck set up just like I like it and wouldn't change anything except for the fuel mileage. I deleted it and while it improved some its still horrible. Trailer is a 25+5 with 10k axles. In hind sight I wish I had gotten the st package with the rubber floors but momma liked this one!

Thats partially true, you are going to have restrictions on your license if you don't take it in a vehicle with air brakes.
I also should have clarified, my skid steer trailer is a 10k tandem axle trailer
