Hello,
I'm totally new to this, and just purchased my first trailer. I have a 2018 Yukon XL, 5.3 liter, 6000lb towing capacity. It does have the tow/haul mode available, but it does not have the premium towing package (external transmission cooler, load leveling, etc). The trailer I purchased is a 2022 Rockwood Roo 19, which has a GVRW of 5600lbs. Ok, I never see anyone pulling a trailer with a Yukon XL in any of the forums, so I started wondering, is this setup going to be a nightmare or is it going to work. I really don't like unpleasant surprises, like brake, transmission, engine failures, so I thought I'd ask this group. Anybody out there who is doing this, and if not, what's the reason for not using this setup? Thanks, for your help.
