We want a Suburban/Yukon to pull it. We're told to get a 2500, which are hard to find in decent condition. then I see some 1500's such as a Yukon Denali with a 6.0 v8 and a 3.73 rear have a higher towing capacity than some 2500's - I'm confused
In short towing capacity is just one factor. What is your payload capacity? What is the payload capacity of a 1500 vs. a 2500.
You need to be concerned with all parameters including hitch weight.
Consider the weight of all cargo and passengers as well.
