Or I could be towing a trailer under 10K with a 2500 or 3500.. the issue is the same... if your trailer is pushing your TV around, then you don't have enough TV.. tell yourself anything you want...
folks think that as long as a truck can pull a trailer then all is cool,..the brakes on a trailer should be able to handle the trailer....
it is all a circle..
No it isn't. I'm pulling a 14K trailer with a SRW F350 truck. Works excellent. Just like a 20K highway tractor can pull a 100,000 pound B train. What do you think stops the second trailer ? The truck ?
Do you understand what causes a jacknife when braking with a trailer ? Too much braking on the tow vehicle relative to the trailer.
TRAILERS MUST BE ABLE TO STOP THEMSELVES !
Do you think the locomotive stops the train ? Not even close.
