[A/S] Re: Suburbans vs conversion vans

[Globetrotter65@xxxxxxx]

We have a 1990 B-Van which we have used to tow both our 25' Excella and 20' 
Globetrotter.  We also have a 2500 Suburban that we use to tow the same 
trailers.  The B-Van has the 460 Ford engine and the Burb has a 454 engine, 
both have the same axel ratio.  I have also towed with a 350 Ford van "non 
conversion" with the same Ford engine and axel ratio.  Being a van person I 
found that I prefered the non conversion van for towing.  The B-Van, weighing 
in at 9000 lbs, is my least favorite choice.  The Burb is the most 
comfortable " my wifes choice" and tows almost as well as the non converted 
van.  If I only had one choice of vehicles, I would have to buy the Burb for 
it's comfort and towability. "and to keep the wife happy.
