Call me nuts but we towed our Elkmont from Michigan to Virginia & back last weekend with our 2005 Equinox with the 3.4L v6. I added a tranny cooler before we left. We got about 12.5 mpg average. Had a weight distribution hitch with anti-sway & didn't have any problems. I would have liked a little more power in the mountains but it wasn't real bad at all. I'm suprised at how it pulled. Then again the Elkmont is lighter than our Coleman Bayside popup was. We're were going to switch to something a little bigger next spring anyway so we're all set.
