Danny,
Dry weight and dry tongue weight on the trailer aren't useful. Choachmen says the GWVR on that trailer is 7,000 lbs. 15% of that would be 1,050# tongue weight. Having towed with a 2005 Tahoe, I think you would be too close to the limits for comfort. Personally, I wouldn't do it.

Not sure I follow. It says the tongue is 540. Unloaded weight 4800. Max cargo capacity is 7000. If I'm not near the 7000 why would it be too close? Not discounting what you say just trying to understand.
