New TV and I have some adjusting to go

[RwaSmith]

This weekend was the first time I was able to tow with our new TV. I took the TT to a local dealer to work on the AC. As you can tell I have some adjusting to do.

[RwaSmith]

All fixed I just needed a longer drop on the shank.

I will do that this weekend when I pick it up from the dealer.

Our old TV was a 2005 Lincoln Navigator short wheel base with the 5.4L.
I knew there would be a difference with the 2500 Suburban but never expected it to the as good as it is. Power/ride everything is so much better.

I really did not notice the tilt while driving

If not you will need to buy a shank with longer adjustment options.

Thanks that was going to be my first move. Due to my driveway I had no idea it was tilted like that when I left the house.

What hitch are you using?
Hard to tell, but trailer does look nose high (from the photo).
Also maybe a tiny bit too much squat in the tow vehicle...

anyway...nice looking rig.
