Tow vehicle

Currently own a Grand Design Reflection TT but we are considering a 30RLSS so we can rejoin our former WIT local club. Anyone towing this trailer-will my 2018 Chevy 2500HD Duramax/Allison handle it?

I would go with the 3500. We used to pull a 33 foot with the 2500, and the only problem we had was the rear sit just a tad to low.
It had plenty of power, and did well in side winds, but for the $ would get the 3500 CC.
Am in the process of getting rid of the Pull Rite Hitch now that we have a new to us Journey.

Your 2500 will handle it fine. Just add air bags that you can adjust the air pressure accordingly or overload springs.

Of course your engine/transmission combination is the best for towing so power isn't an issue. Check your truck's door frame for specific load carrying ability and make sure your new trailer fits within the limits of your truck. Air bags etc. are great for heavier loads but don't use them in hopes of exceeding the GVWR of your truck.
