We have towed a 14 ft enclosed 2 horse trailer that is 7ft 6in high with zero issues and get 14mpg. The trailer loaded is about 6200lbs. Since enclosed I did add an anti sway control and that made it solid as a rock. Our truck also has the rear leveling suspension and factory installed frame mounted hitch.

Now we have to get a 3-4 horse trailer with a stallion divider so the X5d has to go since these trailers are goosneck only. I did get a Dodge Cummins so the X5d will go on sale in about 2 weeks.

I will post an official for sale add but it is a 2 owner and was custom ordered when new. Leather, 7 passenger seating, self leveling rear suspension, nav, towing anti-sway software, skyview roof, and the factory installed hitch (1800 worth...). White with saddle leather. This one is made to tow! It is CPO with another 30k left on the warranty.

LOL, I have a buddy that uses one of those as well but the towing mpg is not so great! We get 14-14.5 towing 6K with our 35d. My buddies 3500 GMC van with the 6 liter LQ4 gets a whopping 8 . . . and when he tows our big trailer he is lucky to get 6.5 . . . Ugg.
