Thank you to y'all for all the great information.
I contacted chevrolet live chat, got the rest of the info I needed to plug into the calculator (Big Thanks to scbwr!). Info generated: GCWR: 13,000 lbs., axle ratio 3.73, max loaded tongue weight 1,000 lbs., GVW 6,600 lbs. The data suggests I need to stay under 6,000 lbs total towing weight.
Thanks also for reminding me about payload, spoon059. I have some big bodies and gear that load into our Suburban.
Iraqvet05, I'm definitely taking your advice and have shot an e-mail out to Jayco regarding the insulation R-values. My wife has vetoed trips made to the south of us because of the heat - and I've been about everywhere north of here!
Thanks again!
