Thanks so much for all of that help rhagfo. So how does your truck do pulling that much weight. I am looking at 5vr's that would be putting me at about the same weight. I have pulled a truck camper that weighed around 8000+ lbs and it seemed to handle all the mountain passes just find. Slowed down to 45 mpph on the steepest. My tranny has about 140k miles and so I worry some about that.
It does well, but I have a manual transmission and added a DS Power Puck for a advertised 50hp and 140 lb ft of torque, and also have RV 275 injectors which puts me around 280 to 300 HP and likely about 600 lb ft of torque, never been on a dyno.
