Avalanche

It's just like a Suburban. Transfer case in neutral, and you're good to go.

Just need to make sure you have a class IV hitch and not a class III. Class 3 is good for 5000 pounds while the class IV is good for 10,000 pounds. If I remember correctly the Avalanche has a curb weight of 5800 pounds plus everything you have in it. You will notice that it is back there when starting out and pulling hills, but the gasser should do very well pulling it. I am saving up for 2016 Ford F150 Supercrew and it weighs fairly close to the avalanche. The only change I plan to make is to up grande to class IV hitch from the class III that is currently on it.

Sorry, I don't know why it double posted when I edited the message.

Yes. My '07 Avy weighs 6,000 lbs. right on the nose with me in it. No passengers or luggage, 1/2 tank of gas.

I use U-Haul hitches on all my vehicles. When I talked to them earlier to make sure I could get a hitch they said that they could get one to fit our MH. You need a regular dealer, not one of the places that just rents U-Hauls because they do not install hitches.

U-HAUL SAID NO THAY COULD NOT ONE THAY HAD ONLY CLASS 3:?

U HAUL SAID NO ONLY CLASS3 THEY DO NOT HAVE CLASS 4

You better check the tow rating on your MH, most gassers are max rated at 5k lbs towing

Is the Avalanche 2WD or 4WD?

Makes a difference
