The road that my tt is stored on has a deep vally that drops to a river then climbs sharply back up that should be a nice test as I know how my avalanche performs there.
Now unloaded this truck will put a smile on anyones face the acceleration from a dead stop is amazing. Going to be hard to keep the tread on rear tires!
My prediction is that you will wonder how you tolerated towing with the Avalanche. :S If unloaded acceleration gives you a smile, towing acceleration will give you a huge grin.:B
The feature on my truck that keeps me from spinning tires and wasting gas is the fuel economy calculator on the screen. I like to see those numbers over 20 empty and over 10 when towing.
Yes it towed the 50 mile round trip spectacular. Even with the 3.73 gears my avalanche was not enough truck. I hate to say the old saying that always irritates me when I hear others say it but "I could hardly tell it was back there" Indeed at times no bucking plenty of acceleration and power to spare.
