What is the optimum % of the tow vehicle maximum limit in towing a TT.I have read percentage of 80% to 50%. I am buying a new truck and I want a reasonable amount of towing excess capability. Thanks.
As others have said, you will likely run out of payload before running out of towing capacity. Concentrate on not overloading the chassis of your truck. Mine runs at 94% of GVWR, 94% of GAWR and 82% of GCWR and tows with no problems so far.
