Earlier there was a post about me mentioning that my new truck has the Z71 Off Road package and the poster hinted that I may have been boasting about it and he made fun of that. I took no offense but I see now the post has been removed. I assume by a mod. To make things clear, I wasn't boasting, I mentioned it because there are a few things the Z71 off road package adds that would have an effect on towing. More heavy duty suspension, 46mm twin-tube high-pressure gas-charged shocks, automatic locking rear differential,larger wheels and according to the dealer, the front axel is a little more heavy duty as well. Whether that is true or not, I don't know. My point was, the Z71 package does offer a few things that will affect towing ability and that's why I included it in my trucks description.
•Z71 Off-Road suspension
•46mm twin-tube high-pressure gas-charged shocks
•Skid Plate Package with a frame-mounted shield
•GM segment-exclusive automatic locking rear differential that provides added grip when you need it
•Available Z71 Appearance Package: 18" aluminum wheels, body-color mirrors and door handles, body-color grille with chrome insert, and Rancho® shocks
