that's a lot of trailer for that truck. At least the good news is it's a Pro4-X which gives it slightly lower gearing. Having said that it's still not really "low" gearing and that is just a five speed transmission.
Just curious, why do you say that? He's under the truck rating for payload, tongue weight and towing capacity.
How do we know he is under the payload and tongue weight ? Do we know what the payload is for the truck ? Do we know what the actual tongue weight of the trailer is ?
My bet is in the real world when it's all hooked up and ready to go camp, he will be over those limits, but at this point it's just a guess.
And for towing that kind of weight, I'd want more gear than 3.34 in the rear, especially when you only have a five speed trans.
