Isuzu does NOT recommend using a VX for towing purposes because of this.
The trooper is rated to tow 4500lbs with that transmission.. they don't want towing based on the short wheelbase from what I understood

I towed a 19foot aluminum boat with a pretty big outboard... about 4000 with the trailer.. it was very heavy. The trailer pushed me around a bit. For the short mileage, no problem. But if you planned on driving it far, I'd say no.

I pull a 16 foot oday with mine.. but total package is less than 1000, it's so easy I forget it's back there...
