I towed a 18 ft dual 3500 lbs. axle trailer loaded with a 1975 K5 blazer (full size) from atlanta to Tellico without any problems. The total weight of the trailer/K5 was about 7900 lbs.

If you tow, Dont forget to push the tow haul button evey time you stop, because when you turn the H2 off, it doesnt stay in tow haul. Personally, I wouldnt tow over 5000 lbs without trailer brakes. Mine has brakes.

It was a very mountainous drive with some extreme grades, but it did just fine. No, its not an F250 but really, I have towed with much worse.

That being said, I don't think I would tow much more than maybe 8500 lbs., unless it was local.
