I was able to find the owner's manual for the 2013 Toyota Tundra Crew Max and the tow capacity depends on the engine and bed type. It does look like your truck is a Crew Max because you have two sets of full sized doors on the cab. There is also a certain model code depending on your truck that would be indicated on the certification label of your truck located on the driver's side door jamb. The engine number is stamped onto the engine block.

I have attached a chart for your reference. You do not want to exceed the gross combined weight rating or trailer weight rating on the chart. The gross combined weight rating is the sum of the total vehicle weight itself including the occupants, cargo and any additional equipment which includes the total weight of the trailer being towed. The trailer weight rating is the weight of the trailer itself plus any cargo in the trailer. You also want to keep in mind you are only as strong as your weakest competent so you want to make sure you are also not exceeding your hitch weight capacity as well. For example the Class III Draw-Tite Hitch For the 2013 Toyota Tundra part # 75527 has a 6,000 lb towing capacity.
