First "test" towing with the 200 went fine. It's no 6.6L Turbo Diesel, but it does just fine. Waiting to purchase a weight distribution hitch once I get the lift on. That will be here next week, but not on before CRR. I went with Tough Dog 45mm adjustables front and rear. Here's how she sits with Dozer on the trailer on OE suspension:

It comes prewired for a controller under the dash. I bought a converter and am using the Redarc Tow Pro Elite for the slick install. There's a box that mounts under the dash pretty easily, that is the "brain" and then the controller (barely) fits in one of the witch blanks. It's has a progressive auto mode or user controlled mode.
Huge huge huge shout out to Jon Mabe @S4Cruiser for giving me a FULL day of his time and shop use. 200 got a Tough Dog lift. It fought us a good bit, but finally got her buttoned up. Off to the alignment shop tomorrow morning. Wound up driving it home from Jon's in Durham to Cary, because it seemed to drive just fine. No issues.
I admittedly have not shopped many 200 series products..... just didnt like the open spacing on that one but likely required for cameras and sensors and headlight washers and other gadgetry.

I jumped on that email like @custyota Meatball on a new single mom on Tinder
Yeah, not sure what the cutouts are all about. I really wish Slee would put something of their own out for the 200. MetalTech is one of my favorite vendors, but I'm not digging this out of the gate.
