Good friends of ours, die hard popup campers for years, after seeing our Coachmen Freedom Express 192RBS went out last year and bought themselves a Starcraft Launch 21FBS which is a clone of our 192RBS, weighing perhaps a couple hundred pounds more. He's been towing it with a Chevy Acadia equipped with a factory tow package and although he's managed well enough the so-called "mountains" just south of here in New York state has him already planning to ditch the Acadia and get himself a 1/2 ton truck. A Traverse wouldn't tow a 21'+ travel trailer as the OP is wanting any better. :( One can skate around this issue as much as they want but at the end of the day the reality is if you're going to tow a full height travel trailer of any size other than the tiniest of tiniest you want a 1/2 ton truck with a V8, or Ecoboost V6.
As spadoctor said - "Get a real truck". :W
