A little off topic, but I have to ask. When is enough going to be enough for everyone regarding towing in a class 3 truck? 40k, 50k, 60k? Mine was 30k, but I am wondering what ya'lls is.
I think today’s numbers are really nothing short of silly.
It is really hard for me to believe that a pick up truck can safely and comfortably pull 30,000 + pounds. That is WAY outside of any weight I would ever pull with one.
I can tell you with me double towing at 35k combined 5k would NOT make a bit of difference.
FACT is the weight on my truck would be 1,300# lighter if I were 40k combined towing a triple axle 5er with 15% pin or a gooseneck with 15% pin grossing 30k.
