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

You are likely going to be close to 6,500 loaded - which would probably put near the peak, but not necessarily over, your GCVWR. Your tongue weight is likely to be 800-1,000 pounds, so (depending on the size of your family) payload could become an issue for you on a 1500 - without knowing your true available payload and other details, that's hard to judge.
All of that said, this would not be a concern at all with the E350. So, you have a back-up of what to do if the match with the Suburban is not ideal. So, if you like it, and you are comfortable with the E350 as a backup plan, I'd go for it, load it up, head to the scales, and see where things are!
