Towing capacity

Just as a reference, I tow a Fun Finder Xtra XT-245 toy hauler, a similarly sized toy hauler.
5025# yellow sticker empty weight,
6740# loaded with two dirt bikes and gear, but no water or generators.
The factory spec hitch weight was 765#, but with the WD hitch, it added 720# to the GVW of the truck. That put it 180# under the GVWR of the truck, 98% of rated capacity, with two people and some luggage in it. It added 880# to the rear axle, putting it 50# under limit, 99% of capacity. I need to crank up the WD to get a little more shifted from the rear axle to the front axle.
You didn't list what your truck weighs loaded with people and gear. I would think you would need at least 720# of payload remaining after you load your truck before you hook up a similar trailer.

My Ecoboost is rated for a GCVWR of 15,300 and the rig weighs 12,920, about 84% of rated capacity. The engine pulls it with no sweat, but the rear suspension rides quite stiffly.

Never mind, the trailer sold to someone else already.

Thanks for your replies.

A couple of important pieces of information are missing. What engine and gears does your Tahoe have? Gears can make a dramatic difference on tow capacity and ability to have a pleasant towing experience. If you are not sure about gears look in your glove box for the RPO codes.

GU6 = 3.42 RATIO
GT4 = 3.73 RATIO
GT5 = 4.10 RATIO

What is the tongue limit of the Tahoe? This should be in your manual's towing section. Loaded, that trailer's tongue weight is probably going to be a lot more than 720#. Typically a 1/2 platform has a 1000# - 1200# limit.

For the trailer, what is the GVWR?

I'm already skeptical and thinking that's too much trailer for the Tahoe.

I'm going to go with NO. It will tow it empty, but not with toys. So no.
