It depends on what you're towing. I tow a small utility trailer - full load total weight is 'bout 2,000lb. The 3.0 hardly knows it's back there. Someone posted a photo not long ago of an X5(I think it was a 4.4) with and Airstream trailer hooked up. Just a guess, but I'd bet your 4.6 should handle up to 7,000lb., but I'd definitely get trailer brakes for anything over 2,000lb.
