So it is the max tow version and not the "sport" version. There is one with 3.73's and i believe the z60 suspension.

Yes this is the tow version with the 4:10 gears and the 9.5 inch 14 bolt rear axle. Speaking of towing, tomorrow I will be using it to tow my wife's GMC Acadia from Reno to Phoenix using u-hauls double axle car trailer. Any towing advice is appreciated!!! I'm interested to see how it does power wise and fuel wise, I bet its going to be thirsty!!!

Well my LQ9 with 3.42's got about 7.5-8.5 mpg towing a 10,000 pound toy hauler. So i expect around 10 for you. Lock it in third and use tow/haul.
