Impressed with Towing Capacity
I'M impressed with the towing capacity and the fuel milage with my 07 Suburban LTZ.
I have read that a lot of guys around here were getting 5 MPG when towing. I only went on a 60 mile tow and I was getting 10.8 MPG.
I was towing a 23 ft boat. The boat was rated at 5800 LB dry and it had a full tank of gas and was on a tandem axle trailer. I think they said it was close to 8000 LB for the whole set up?
The auto ride really did make the suburban always level and ride nice.
I pulled some really steep hills with ease. I'M talking I never dropped below 65 MPH even pulling the hills, I'M impressed with Chevy.
