With the exception of Padgett's Wonder Jeep/FIAT every minivan, CUV, mid-size SUV (Explorer, Trailblazer), 1/2 ton truck/SUV (including Expedition, Tahoe and Suburban) needs a WDH due to the higher tongue weight.

IMPO, I would rather tow a TM with full BOF 1966 Chevy Caprice with Monroe Air shocks than a short(er) wheelbase, unibody V-6.

1/2 ton trucks have the power and braking capability and even a long enough WB, but the exaggerated tongue weight severely affects the payload capacity that the TV can accommodate.
