When my father used his Bravada, (4.3L), to tow a car that weighed 1,980lbs, and with trailer probably less than that, we never got the damn thing over 15mpg, even at 45mph, in OD, TC lockup, all the good stuff. Just flat out would not do it on flat ground.
Luckily we weren't going far.
Look for something with a 4 or 5 cylinder engine. They'll handle the load if you can fan the clutch properly, whatever you get will cost less to buy and will get better FE out of the deal.
