    Rick: as Pete would say: I know you got the money - go ahead and buy the 10000 lb tow bar - why take a chance? I would hate to see the 2013 Tahoe wind up like the big Ford SUV.

    Is the Tahoe black?

    Yes its Black, that seems to be the universal color of Tahoes here in NJ. I have the '11 Denali to pull the motorcycle trailer and I have the '12 Outback to tow behind the bus. I can't tow the Denali because of the trans so, the Tahoe kills 2 birds with one stone, I can pull the motorcycle trailer with the Tahoe AND tow it behind the bus when I need to. So I get rid of 2 cars and downsize to one. I wasn't able to keep my medical plan so I need the cash to buy health insurance in the Affordable Medical Care marketplace........if only I can get the website to work!

    Hey Rick,
    Glad to hear your upgrading, Im going to feel better being pulled out of ditches by a Tahoe vs that Subaru. I use the Roadmaster 10000lb bar for my jeep just in case I put it in the ditch while its being towed. Figured the added drag pulling it out would be covered. I also use the M&J Braking system. Easy to hook up and I assume it works well although the jeeps so light I can't really feel it back there. They make and install that system just South of Dallas. You should come down and get one installed and I'll by you dinner while your here. Ain't but a couple thousand miles!!!

    I've pulled 2500 Duramax Diesel 4x4's and Hummer H2's, along with others, and have had no problems with the 6000 lb capacity Roadmaster Tow bars. However, after 13 years of use, I just bought a New 10,000 lb All Terrain just because....

    Rick, Roadmaster over builds their product, as others probably do. So, if you're tow is under 6,000 you can stay with what you have or upgrade. If you load ever exceeds 6,000 pounds you should upgrade, if for no other reason, to limit liability if something bad happens. I'm not suggesting anyhing bad will happen, just that we all know we're in a sue happy society.
