I need some way to open the Vette doors, for sure.
GVWR on my 02 Sub is #7200 less trailer #2300 less Vette #3000 leaves 1900 for tools tires or excess capacity so I guess I can pull it. Just.
Probably a 16 ft is a better fit to my truck, but I am going to eventually sell the 02 Sub for an Avalanche which I may be able to spec out for a higher GVWR.
Let's talk.
What about a Rollback:

I think you'd be better off with Silverado 2500 crew cab than an Avalanche.
Mine is 4x4, 5.3 engine, still #8100?
Rollback very nice but too many $$$$$.
I know a "real truck" would serve better, but I like the style of the Avalanche & it's a bit less "trucky". It would be my primary DD.
What I would buy in a sec is an Avalanche hybrid, like the Escalade one I have heard of.
40 mile of around town trips = zero gas. Longer trips full v8 gasoline engine kicks in.
Thanks.
