Not the same vehicle, but we had a 2005 Chevy Suburban (1500) and towed our first travel trailer with it. I ended up destroying the transmissions and had a new one (rebuilt) installed. I was towing in 'D' and over drive. I should have kept it locked in a lower gear so it would have never shifted into Drive or Over Drive when towing and just let the engine race a little. It would have saved me a bunch of money on a new transmission. FYI, the new transmission never worked right. Within 6 weeks of the new transmission install, we traded it for a 3500 duly Silverado (gas) tow vehicle.
