Default towing question ??

I am new to fourm , just got an 06 H2 SUV Black
My question is - I will be towing a cargo trailer from S.Fla to Tenn. ( 900mi)
I did not get the air suspension and was wondering how it is going to handle the weight. (trailer 7 x 14 6000# )
Should I consider a weight distrubuting hitch? I might be making the trip 4-6 time a year

Thank's in advance , Craig

This guy is right. You should sell your hummer and get a wrangler which can tow less than a H2's payload. I hear Wranglers have great payload too! like 750Lbs! WOW.

Here is my hummer towing a jeep to Tellico, and doing some real work out on my job site (about a 18ft section of curb).
