Yes, don't do it!
My 2011 210WSD weighs close to 4000 lbs dry, i.e. bare bones, nothing else added.
In real life, I am pulling about 5000 lbs or more. Packed with food, utensils, bedding, clothes, BBQ, full propane tanks, any liquids in any of the tanks, etc.
I pull mine with a p/u truck, 5.3 V8 engine rated to pull 10,000 lbs, and use a weight distributing hitch as well. I would never haul anything more than that with this truck.
Your vehicle is rated to pull 5000lbs and maxing out like that is very unsafe. Your vehicle would be more suited to pull a small pop up style trailer. Not a 2110 WSD.
I've found out the hard way never to pull more than about 75% MAX of your vehicle's rated capacity. This is a good rule to follow and you'll avoid problems.
