1800 is printed on tag on trailer . Fire Insructer are you towing 3000 lb pin weight with a 2500 ?
Ummmm... Yes, and no....
I towed it home from the dealership that way (empty) so I was maxed-out with the traier and the hitch weight. (But this was the floorpan that the boss REALLY wanted, so if I needed to upgrade the truck, so be it.)
Since then, I've found, researched, talked to owners, and have ordered an Automated Safety Hitch. I pick it up in two weeks. Expensive, but no where near what a 3500 DRW would have cost, and I REALLY didn't want a wider, fiberglass fender DRW.....
