So here is the dilemma. DW and I own a 2008 ford expedition (non el) with about 48,000 miles. We have four kids between 8 and 2 yrs old. We just purchased a TT about 3 months ago and pulled it about...
Tongue rating on 2007+ suburbans is limited to 1000 Lbs. This is due to the hitch being integrated into the frame on these trucks.... crumple zones, etc. To me it's a limitation that could/should have been corrected by now on the 2500's. Anyway, as long as your tongue weight doesn't exceed 1000lbs, it's a good option. Otherwise you have to either go pre-2007 Suburban; a used excursion, CC pickup, 1 ton van, etc. Good luck!
