What used to be a white-knuckle trip is now a walk in the park.

mwdill,
Hope your search is going well, should you decide on a Ford product, let me know I can get you on the x-plan deal. save a few bucks plus you don't have to negotiate with the sales floor of a dlr. I work for an arm of the FMCO and can do friends of family deal and Ford has some deals before the end of the month that also applies to instock stuff-no obligation...OSO family benifits :D :D :D
If interested P.M. me.

The Armada will out tow all of them. It has an amazing engine and trans. It's not quite as polished as the others interior wise but everything else it kicks azz.

We drove an armada and I agree, it has got a ton of torque and runs good. I did not fall in love with the interior. The fit and finish was pretty bad and definitely not up to typical Japanese standards, the Yukon was actually much nicer inside I thought. I worry about the brake issues and the squeak and rattles they talk about. Kennyo, do you have a one, what are your experiences with it?

If you're looking at those 3 you might as well check out the Durango. It has won several shootouts in mags that compare large suv's.
Plus it has a HEMI!!!

And I read this now... :(

The same day the thread started, I went out and bought an 05 Suburban. Was dayum close to buying a Tahoe, but the one I bought was a better deal.

Is there a reason you guys keep saying Tahoe and not Suburban? Is there something I should watch for/be aware of when towing?

I have a 2005 Denial Crew Cab Pickup that I tow a 38 Special with. The specs beat all trucks except the ones with diesels. One thing to remember is you drive your tow vehicle more without the boat than with it connected. This truck drives like a dream.

Horsepower-345
Torque (lb-ft.)-380
All Wheel Drive
Cooling, engine oil cooler, heavy-duty air-to-oil, integral to driver side of radiator tank
Cooling, transmission oil cooler, auxiliary, heavy-duty air-to-oil
Rear axle, 4.10 ratio
Transmission, 4-speed automatic, heavy-duty, electronically controlled with overdrive, tow/haul mode
Trailering equipment, heavy-duty, includes trailer hitch platform, high capacity air cleaner, and external transmission oil cooler.

You may already know this but if you are looking for a General Motors vehicle make sure you take advantage of the "Employee Discount For Everyone" as the program will end on July 5th. Depending on what region you live in there may be some other incentives.

No, the Suburban is a better towing vehicle than the Tahoe...and its more comfortable.
