Bob,

Well, it ain't blue water, but we'll be at KY Lake the first week in 
October.

Yep, a Tahoe is plenty good to tow an R-22. We used to have one too. But 
truth be known, an R-22 and trailer is a bit much to be towing with no 
brakes. Not that it can't be done, obviously it can. In most states 
these days though, it isn't legal. Most require trailer brakes above 
3000 lbs or so and an R-22 is well over that. I put brakes (electric) on 
my R-22 trailer. If you plan on towing very much, you won't regret doing it.

I can't hardly imagine not having a tow vehicle. I just always have 
towed ...... something, not always boats though, that is fairly recent. 
I was adding it up the other day and I figured I had owned something 
like 18 trailers of one kind or another that could be towed by a pickup.
