SUV has become a very ambiguous and ill defined term. As STeve Heywood says, it depends on the SUV, but generally a tow vehicle rated for 4500# will be too whimpy to tow a trailer rated 4500 GVW. There are some very comprehensive threads that discuss the desired ratio between tow vehicle rating and the trailer's GVW, but 4500/4500 will be frustrating especially in the mountains.
