Just bought my 2013 in excellent condition, but it needs new shocks and struts, sags just a bit in the back.

 

What is the best solution for ride and towing a 3k lb. small camper with my factory tow package? Thanks

 

Go Vols!

With your 13, you will want to get the auxiliary trans cooler installed before you start towing. Also recommend changing the trans fluid every 15-20k miles. The CVT is sensitive to degraded fluid and high temperature. 

 

With rear suspension for the added load, might want to replace the springs with some heavier duty ones or consider some air bags or air shocks to carry the extra load.
