Can we pull a TT with our ‘20 Suburban
We recently bought a 2020 Z71 Chevy Suburban. We know that the towing capacity for our car is 8000lbs, but we don’t want to meet that capacity because we don’t want something like... the transmission ...

First off; you have a modern tow vehicle. IF set up properly, it will do pretty well with a reasonable amount of trailer.
Second; how many days a year are you going to use the trailer? Paying a bazillion dollars on a unit to sit in storage for weeks/months at a time will grate on your mind.
Third; what type of trips or travel currently matter to you? Are you camping in Forest Service campgrounds or RV parks? Being in the Eastern part of the U.S. you won't find boondocking like in the West.
Fourth and probably most importantly: DO NOT believe everything a salesperson tells you. Their goal is to send you out with a unit, period! This time of year is good to shop and dream, but dealers won't cut much slack on the prices, so shop, look, think, and when you do make the plunge, enjoy!
