Can it be done safely?
Hello all, Really new to trailers and hauling in general. Looking to buy a used 2007 Jayco hybrid 19H TT and wanted to know everyone's thoughts on pulling this with a 2010 Chevy traverse with Tow ...

You're in Wisconsin. Planning on staying ther or will you be visiting the Rockes? There's a BIG difference on many of these points if you will be towing in the mountains.
I live in an area where I climb a 6% grade to get 10 miles out of town. I can't tell you how many conked out SUVs and small trucks I see on the side of the highway any weekend I head up the mountain. I also CG host at Sequoia N.P. To get there with a trailer you need to pull an 18 mile long 6% grade. Try that in the summer when it's 110 on the valley floor with an under powered TV.
So my point is that you need to consider the terrain that you plan to use that combo in. Eastern grades are even worse than many we have in the West because roadways tend to be older.
Good luck with it.
