No problem posting to an old thread, just be cognizant that the folks who posted 4 years ago most likely aren't following the post any longer.

Years ago with 5 kids and pulling a popup and then a travel trailer we had a suburban that was grey and light blue with a 5.7 engine. I had it for 175,000 miles and had only one repair which was just a ball joint. Then later I bought another suburban that was 2500 with a 454 gas motor and it ran great, not one problem except it got horrible mpg, it was rated to pull 10,000 lbs trailer.

As the kids got older we went with an E350 12 passenger van, it was nothing like the suburbans. But since the kids are grown I like the PU trucks.
