The weight of passengers, cargo and options or accessories may reduce the amount you can tow. I am currently towing a trailer that is 6200lbs with no problems at all. That will put me at around 80% of the manufacturers limit.
There was minimal strain on the engine and the transmission 5-speed. On select Sierra Light Duty and Canyon models, an 8-speed automatic transmission provides smooth and precise shifting. Maximum towing capacity on the 2000 lineup has been increased by 400 pounds and is now up to 6,400 pounds when equipped with a 4. When properly equipped; includes weight of vehicle and trailer combination, including the weight of driver, passengers, fuel, optional equipment and cargo in the vehicle and trailer. The actual weight of the truck is no greater.
In 2007 I took my Yukon and towed a car trailer with a 3300 pound car aboard also loaded down with moving boxes, furniture etc. All use 4 speed automatic transmission. I don't understand how a Toyota Sequoia that is smaller and lighter than my Yukon has up to a 10k towing capacity. The non-Denali trims have 4 doors and seat 9 while the Denali seats 8. As long as you don't beat on it and have a good transmission cooler, you could probably drag 12,000 pounds daily wild-ass exaggerated guess without that becoming the issue. My trailer is 5000lbs and the van tows it well, you know it's there especially going uphill but the drivetrain never has to struggle, just has to work harder. Max towing capacity comes out to 8200, 8500, or 12000 lbs.
Not to worried about that. It was a fun trip and it gave me no worries along the way. The Trailering Equipment Package includes trailer hitch platform and seven-wire trailer wiring harness. I drive 55-60 max and don't get in any big hurry. Engine bore x stroke 4. I could rebuilt the transmission for the cost of sales tax from switching vehicles.
The rear suspension of the Denali can support the 1000 lbs of tongue weight with the auto leveling, autoride shocks. Requires crossbars or Thule Rack Solution. I just don't understand how they come up with these ratings. A weight-distributing hitch and sway control are required for trailer weights greater than 7,000 lbs. The car normally gets between 35 and 37 mpg.
The 1500's have a 5. The 4l65e is obviously the weak link. Two final drive ratios are available, one for standard duty and a shorter ratio for heavy hauling. The standard base cooling system includes all content required to attain maximum trailer rating. The weight of passengers, cargo and options or accessories may reduce the amount you can tow.
The weight of passengers, cargo and options or accessories may reduce the amount you can tow. Trailer weight ratings are calculated assuming properly equipped vehicle, plus driver and one passenger. However, the bulky size makes for tight driving in residential areas. I'm going to do some mods to help it hold up. Should I be worried about a properly set up Yukon towing at it rated capacity? It almost sounds like they put the truck on a 10% grade and see how much weight it will move. When properly equipped, includes weight of vehicle, passengers, cargo and equipment.
I figure I'll keep the Yukon for the wife to haul all the kids around in and I can still use it as a backup tow vehicle. Only 60% of the power is going to the rear. V-6 engine limited to 1,000 lbs without V92 Package. Yes, they've improved drivetrains to prevent excessive warranty claims, but that's just not the most important part. I haven't had any trouble yet but I would hate to have a catastrophic failure 200 miles from home and be at the mercy of a local shop. When determining the total weight of trailer and cargo, include the weight of any additional passengers and optional equipment driver weight and base equipment are already included.
The quadrasteer should be fun too. Some of theses manufactures are rating their similarly sized vehicles at 9 to 10k towing capacities. I have already towed this trailer a couple thousand miles and it does very well. The weight of passengers, cargo and options or accessories may reduce the amount you can tow. Maximum towing capacity when ordered with available Trailering Package. For 1500 Series models, trailer tongue weight should be up to 1,200 lbs.
