I get the whole thing about towing with a nice long SUV. I towed for many years with 3 different suburbans. 2 of them 1/2 ton and one was a 3/4 ton. All were obviously long wheel base compared to a Tahoe or Yukon. All towed well. The best one as far as power and "towmanship" was the last one that was a 1999 1/2 ton 4x4 suburban with a 5.7 and a tow package. But the 3/4 ton Suburban I had really did go down the road like it was on rails. But with a 33ft. trailer, I'd have a 3/4 ton pickup no way around it. I'm thinking if your wallet can tough out a new suburban, it could tough out a 3/4 ton Crew Cab 4x4 diesel pickup. You'd experience a new realm of tow ease with the power. The tow power at half the throttle of a gas rig is unreal.
