Suggest you look at your label that has GVWR, and GCWR ratings listed. I suspect the max tow rating of a gaser is 5000 lbs but that is not the entire story. If you are travelling near or at the GVWR, you may not have a 5000lb gap between the GVWR and the GCWR. You legally cannot exceed either rating.
Good luck,
I suggest you will find issues in towing a vehicle >6000lbs with the RV noted.
You might want to configure your RV for a trip and weigh it to find out where you stand vs GVWR and what you have left over and not exceed the GCWR. (Gross Combined Weight)

That era of Flair, towing was 3500 lbs. So the answer to your question would be no.
