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 our MH.
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.
