Im too poor to have that setup. I bought an 05 Suburban Z71 4x4 for $2,300 and turned it into my camper/overlander/tow vehicle😂

I'm happy to hear its working ok. For everyone else that may see this, the dry weight means very little. Actual weight once all your stuff is in it, any additions like solar panels and things like propane or water is what really matters. This trailer is probable over 6500 pounds or more with water. Also the rated hitch weights are never even close to correct. That is usually before even the empty propane tanks are put on. Actual hitch weight is more likely over 725 depending on how its loaded. Not to mention what's is being loaded inside the vehicle for passengers and other gear. On flat ground I bet its ok as long as its not windy and staying on flat ground. A trailer that big will definitely want to push around a tow vehicle with that short a wheelbase. Happy and safe camping out there.

I got a transmission cooler to my 2007 Chevy Tahoe and upgraded the rear differential to to a 4.56 take pressure off the transmission. It runs like a champ on a cold air intake and I’ve lost like .5 miles to the gallon I wa getting 15 miles to the gallon now I’m getting 14.5 per gallon

We bought a replacement transmission in our eventually and it’s still much cheaper than the alternatives

@@estimatingonediscoveringthree crazy you say that….was going to post an update because ours literally went out a couple months ago, that God it was covered under warranty…so an 8 year old vehicle now has a brand new transmission 🙌🏼

@ Thank God in deed! awesome, happy for you! ours went after a epic trip from NY TO MIAMI AND BACK, pulling out 19’ bunkhouse. we still have the tahoe but have bought a ‘18 6.2l premeire Tahoe. power is awesome, tranny isnt working as hard, but the major down side is the air ride is bouncy! ugh! im gonna try putting a drop hitch on and adjusting the tortion, hopwfully that fixes it.

Thank you for posting this. I’ve been going back and forth about what vehicle to get. It will be dual use. Mainly my wife’s everyday vehicle but it eill be nice to tow with too.

Cool video. I tow a 6300lbs TT with my 2021 Tahoe z71. Cross country (I work all over) and never had an issue. Thanks for sharing

8000 pound towing but what’s payload capacity? that’s the main concern.

The payload and axle weight ratings are probably more important than the overall trailer weight

I’ve pulled a 30ft toy hauler. And I have a 2016 GMC Yukon Denali. Specs for 2019 Dutchmen - Coleman Lantern Floorplan: 250TQ (Toy Hauler) 2019 Dutchmen Coleman Lantern 250TQ Toy Hauler RV Works just fine. Just take it slow.

When towing with your Yukon always watch your transmission temperature and when going up hill switch to manual mode

I just found out I only have the 3.08 rear axle ratio so I can only go up to 6000 lbs. Very disappointed.

No. It probably has a 308 rear differential. It is more about stopping
