Is anyone pulling a Chevy Tahoe with this motorhome? I am thinking about buying one and don't want to trade toads.

What model, size of RED?

What does the Tahoe weigh and how loaded are you going to be?
Shouldn't be a problem if you stay under the 5000 tow limit that includes overall gross weight after packing.

Go to the Tiffin website and look at the specs for the RED. The towing capacity is limited to 5000lbs, ( because of the Allison 2500MH trans) but even that is good only if you keep the weight of the coach under the GVWR of 29,500lbs by 1500lbs, so as to not exceed the GCWR of 33,000lbs.

Tahoe weighs in at 5600, the Allegro Red is a 38'. I pull it now with a 330 MBE 926, which is just fine. I know the unit I have now is a little bigger chassis.
