I agree. 3.73 gears would be better. But should tow ok.

Can't imagine how you determined that? Based on a decade of using one, for a similar trailer, and doing so all over North America, Miami to Maine, San Diego to the Arctic Circle, I would have to disagree.
For that size of trailer and for the sake of stability suggest you consider a higher end hitching system like the Hensley or Pro Pride connection systems.
No idea why you would want to spend several thousand on a hitch to solve a problem that does not exist? A Dual-Cam will do the job without issue, and is perfectly suitable for this TT and SUV combo
Also be sure to upgrade the weak factory GM receiver if it has not already been done.
Old Info. Does not apply to the GMT900 platform Tahoe, 2006-current
Sorry, but suggesting that a Tahoe is a marginal tow vehicle, that can't handle a modest sized trailer without a multi-thousand dollar hitch to make it safe, is pretty far from reality. Well over a thousand hours behind the wheel while towing, with ZERO drama and ZERO mechanical issues related to towing, suggests otherwise.
Agree, there are 1,000's of Tahoe's/Yukon's used as Tv's and they work to one degree or another.
Compared with a Tahoe a top rated TV would have more precise steering, better braking, a more quieter ride, better handling, etc.
If you ever get a chance to experience one of the premium Tv's then you would understand the difference.
There are many Tahoe owners who understand and appreciate the value of the Hensley and PP connection systems. The extra value of performance, safety, and drive comfort is there.
Again.... try a high end, correctly set up unit and you will understand.

This was on pre-2007 vehicles. Please pay attention to the vehicle the poster asked about: 2010 Tahoe.
Please leave your 7 year old baggage behind.
