Hitch (tongue) weight is manageable. Most of us who tow with SUVs, 1/2 ton trucks, and front drive vans deal with it.
Airstream says to never let it exceed 1,000 lbs in the Owners Manual, so that should be a goal no matter what you tow with. Use a fully capable weight distribution hitch, load the Airstream evenly front-to-back and side-to-side, and load the tow vehicle lightly keeping heavy items forward of the rear axle.
If that's not enough to get hitch (tongue) weight down (but at least 10% of trailer weight for stability), relocate batteries aft, interior mods, consider the actual need for the spare trailer tire.
