Actually, the correct answer would be how much does the trailer weigh and does this fit into the towing range of the Suburban. Your owners manual will give you the answer, your trailer info tag will tell you the weight of the camper.
Assumptions can lead to serious consequences when towing a trailer. You can overheat and blow the transmission, you can lose control of the vehicle when the suspension breaks, etc.
Also check the tow hitch specifications.
It should as long as it is outfitted properly. Lower axle gears help, but are not a necessity unless you pull a bunch of hills. If it has an automatic transmission, I would HIGHLY recommend an external trans cooler. Lower trans temp=longer trans life. Make sure your hitch is attached properly, and is the correct class for the weight of the trailer. A 25-footer will most likely require either a class IV or class V hitch. I would also recommend getting a hitch with a sway-brake, and pre-load springs.
We pulled a 9000 pound 24-foot travel trailer up 8% grades with a 72 Blazer equipped with a custom class V hitch, but it was outfitted with a custom towing package, including deep axle gears and heavy duty cooling.
Yeah, it should be fine. Be sure to gear down when pulling high mountain passes.
i would hope so. man they are freakin huge vehicles, they should be able to pull a Mac truck with no problem…
