How Long is too long
Looking at upgrading. Is a 31' (5220/7230) too long for a Chevy Suburban 1500 to tow. Thanks

I towed that same size/weight TT with a 145" WD F150 Max Tow. It was "Just okay". It required my full attention 80% of the time. Unlike when I traded up to a 2500 where the TT no longer moved the truck around. TT still wiggled a but, but the 2500 was firmly planted to the road.
I towed the 1st combo for 2.5 years and about 10,000 miles throughout Oregon and Norcal. Never really had the scary white knuckle say your prayers moment. Just never felt like the truck and TT were always on the same page.
If you're dead set on that TT then I would suggest making sure your tires are D or E rated and you add something to the rear suspension to stiffen it up a bit.
Also I would suggest the best friction sway control based WDH you can afford.
IMO a Hensley Arrow or Pro Pride would be the ideal WDH for you setup.
Spendy but the towing will be fantastic.
