What is the ratio of the rear overhang to the wheelbase of each? Longer wheelbase alone in itself doesn't guarantee better towing. It is the ratio of the rear overhang to the wheelbase that does.
My 2004 Envoy XL was more stable than our 2005 Suburban. Wheelbases were within 1" of each other, but the rear overhang of the Envoy was far shorter and made for a more stable ride.
You make a very good point. However I am not sure I totally agree. My old Tahoe used to tow very well. Then I pulled the same trailers with my brothers Yukon XL with the same drive train and it felt much more stable even though I had a larger rear overhang. Overall a longer wheelbase seemed to help dramatically
