I would never tell anyone not to get an EB because they are great but whether one is necessary is another question."
Would you send your wife out to tow 15-16k combined to tow I-5 from Redding, CA to Eugene, OR without an EB in a 2500 4 speed auto Cummins ?
I’d have my wife do it. She’s obviously a more confident driver than you are. Pulls I70 through Colorado multiple times per year. Never heard her complain or talk about feeling unsafe.
Your consistent sexist comments about women’s driving abilities, or lack there of, are telling about your personality.
Go ahead and get back to your chest pounding.
I don't see Cummins12V98's comments as sexist, I see them as gentleman, and a concerned husband.
One can have confidence, but also concern. My DD bought a 30' four horse GN trailer, and a 2004 Ram 3500 DRW to tow it with. We had picked up the trailer in Medford, OR and drove it home to Portland using my Ram 2500 5 speed to tow it home. Her 1st trip with her truck and trailer war to Cle Elum, WA yes I was confident that she could drive without issue, but as a dad I was still concerned.
