Can I tow this and how will it feel?
Okay here are the specs. I "think" I'm figuring this right. 2017 Chevy Express 15 passenger van. 1LT. 6.0L engine. GCWR 16,000 GVWR 9,600 Van Weight 6,129 Passengers total weight: 920 Pound...

Next question, would I be pushing it if I bought a 7200 pound trailer rather than the 6660 pound one as I mentioned earlier?
So this would be 821 pounds left for GCWR Max.
I think I have plenty of payload for Tongue weight.
What my main concern is will I be struggling greatly up grades/down grades? I don't mind if I feel it for sure, I just mind if I'm gonna have doubts if I can make it over a 6% grade.
I do have the M5 / M4 option on my van to keep it out of high gear.
Plus I have a tow button which does.... umm... what it does. :)
If it would struggle on mountain grades, how would it do on flats and "basic" hills?
Thanks!
