All are half ton, except for the 3/4 ton Sub (Yukon XL is based on the Chevy Sub)
"Half ton" as in +7K GVWR and +4K RGAWR
The "3/4 ton" Sub/YukonXL are 8.6K and 6K RGAWR. Only GMT900 (previous gen) and
current gen only half ton offered
The Ford Expedition EL is a half ton and just longer version of the regular Expedition
Any of their engines will do the job if you are under/at their GVWR/GAWR's.
MTWR (Max Tow Weight Rating) is bogus unless you have their stripper model. If
high optioned (AC, power windows/seats/locks, 2nd & 3rd row seats, etc, etc) it
is NOT rated for the listed MTWR
5K 'dry' will most likely be 6K-7K when fully optioned and loaded. 'Can' be done
with any of the TV's you list, but that also depends on how that TV is loaded
