I have that exact same Tahoe. A full tank of gas with just me inside weighs 5960 pounds (me 200#). My trailer is 29 1/2 feet from hitch to bumper and weights 6480 off the lot with battery and full propane. We have managed to only add about 500# to travel (no water)plus the wife and dog in the Tahoe. We use a Husky Centerline Hitch. It drives fine at 60 to 65 mph but it lacks on power in the hills. Do yourself a favor and skip the Tahoe. Do like the others have stated, get a 2500 crew cab truck and put a bed cover on it to haul your gear. If you go with a gas engine get the 6.2 with Max Trailering Package. If you really want to be safe and happy go with the Duramax. Whatever you do don't go cheap on the hitch.
