What air pressure would you recommend that I run  (I?m running nitrogen in the tires).  2011 Chevy suburban LTZ 2011 Rockwood 30 foot TT  Dry weight 5800      GVW 6895

Update:  due to the limited choices available I choose to pull the trigger on the BF G KO2.    So we?ll see how they  pull the camper the weekend. 

Thanks for the help Gary.      Looks like this tire is going to be tough to find,  I?ve got a call into 2 different tire stores waiting to hear back with their suggestions. 

Good info Ghost,  But based on what a lot of ppl are telling me the Ko2 are going to be too aggressive a tread.    Need more of a street tire.    Any suggestions?    I?ve called several tire stores without any luck. 

11 Chevy Suburban LTZ 275/55R20 Current tire Goodyear Eagle GT. P275/55R20.    Pulled the 30? TT great But I understand I need LT tires.  Bought Nitto Ridge Grapplers LT275/55R20.  Couldn?t keep it in the road.  Kept causing a sway / waggle which in turn caused the TT to start swaying. ...

I?ve been trying to figure out how to take our bikes (no rack on the new RV).  And after reading your post, I think I?m going to carry them inside the TT.    Mine is a 1000 bike, the rest are Walmart bikes.  But still don?t want them stolen.  Or rusted up from the weather.   

The plans are to camp locally 3 or 4 times prior to the big trip.    And these local campgrounds are a few hours away and vary in the types of roads so I should be able to get some experience before heading to Yellowstone.      At some point prior to the trip I plan to weight the trailer.  I...

We plan to camp along the way and each nights campground he full hook ups so like you?re saying just need 1/4 tank of water to get us through the days.  That was part of the appeal of the camper was being able to fix lunch each day and take a break.   

Pip,    Agreed that it?s going to be stressful getting there and getting back (long days).  We routinely do long trips in the car and the kids have gotten used to it so hopefully the added reward of stopping at a campground each night and them being able to play while we setup will be enough to...

****Update***** Picked up the rv today,  towed it with the suburban for about 3 hrs thru the local mountains (2 lane windy rd) and then around the city on the highway and really never had any problems. The suburban pulled it well up and down the mountain.  So unless something changes or a 2500...

That?s how I was raised. 

Appreciate you saying that.  Can?t wait to take the first trip. 

I?m not going to worry about it anymore.  I shook the mans hand and agreed to buy it last week.  We love the RV and the floor plan.  The suburban will tow it.  We got a great deal on it.  God is in control.  Like I said I?ll just upgrade either my truck or the suburban. (Both are 1500?s). ...

It isn?t the 100. That?s the issue.  I signed the papers Friday and it?s a done deal.  I would gladly lose the 100.  I also had him replace all five tires and buy a new mattress (my expense).  Also I would reimburse him for these items.    But the deal is done.  No back tracking.    As a fall...

No go on the backing out of the sale.  ??? I called GM and they said my tow capacity it 8000LB.  So I guess I?m not going to break the Chevy.  In the mean time I?m going to look to upgrade the Chevy to a 2500.  If I can do that I?ll head to Yellowstone, if not we?ll be camping closer to...
