Speaking of towing..

Yesterday I saw a couple returning from a beach trip. They were pulling a Wildwood 30LOFTK with a 1500 Suburban, the same vehicle that I have. I thought that trailer really dwarfed the Suburban so I looked up the weights.. Dry weight: 7824, Hitch weight: 857. I wouldn't try that with my burb.. Gives me the hives just thinking about it.
