Ok,,so ,, We finally decided to go with a hybrid. So we like the Rockwood Roo 21ss Dry Weight is 4300 lbs. I understand it will be more like 4800 with awning etc.
Can my Chevy Tahoe pull it? Here are the specs on tahoe:
2008 Chevy Tahoe 2WD 5.3 flex fuel v8 engine with a Trans cooler.
3.42 gears
GVWR 7100
GAWR Front 3200
GAWR Rear 4100
Hitch Ratings
weight carrying 5000 lbs/ max tongue weight 600 lbs
Weight distributing 10,000 /tongue weight 1000 lbs
your hitch receiver ratings are for the receiver only. has nothing to do with the actual tow ratings of the Tahoe. GM puts that receiver on many different vehicles that all have different tow/payload ratings.
you don't say whether your Tahoe has the HD factory tow package or not.
does it have the 6 spd. trans or 4 spd. trans?
that said, you should be able to tow a 21SS with it, unless you overload the Tahoe with a lot of passengers and cargo.
