H2 Towing a 38'???
 
My wife had to take my Dually today and I need to trail the boat about 100 miles tonight. Anybody ever use an H2 to pull a 38'? I would assume for the short distance it shouldn't be an issue.

I used my H2 to pull a 39' before from Miami to Naples. No problem at all. Give yourself plenty of room to stop!

Thanks! I didn't think it would be an issue but figured I'd get some input.

No chit...doesnt the H2 sit on the same chassis as the Tahoe?

I used my H2, (supercharged bigger brakes) to tow my 35' Nordic, within the first hundred miles it destroyed the transmission. Hummer covered the tranny, but said they would not cover another one.
I did not have stopping problems, or a power problem, but the tranny is the weak link. Also with it's low tow rating it is liability lawsuit waiting to happen.
Sold the H2, replaced it with a 650

Yep with a higher center of gravity. It would be a cold day in hell before I used an H2 to pull or "STOP" a 38 Formula. Is stopping still important these days? It appears to be a pretty big deal.:evilb: :evilb: :evilb:
