Re: tow vehicles??

884X4Sub, My engine is close to stock. It's a GM 350 crate engine with an Edelbrock RPM intake/performer 600 carb and Flowtech Afterburner headers. No mufflers - just cats (kinda to loud at highway speeds). Sorry it took so long for my reply, I've been out of town

Re: tow vehicles??

For short trips I use the Yukon, but for the long ones the 40' RV pulls the blazer very nice.

Re: tow vehicles??

Thank you sir, the RV is my dads and he lets me use it some times.. But the Yukon dose good for what it is, the power from the 5.3 is not to bad. I wish I got the XL, I think Mine pulls 7500-8000 and I think the XL will do close to 10000. I only tow the blazer 2-3 time a year with the Yukon and it's only 100 miles at the most.
