  • I never have seen one broke down on the highway. On the other hand, they spend a lot of time in the gas stations. Seems to be an okay pickup engine. Give it enough gas and gear and it will get the job done.
  • The GM 6.0 has been a good puller, for it's size. The newer models, with 6-speed transmission make good tow vehicles, and a little better mpg.

    Depending on gearing, such as 4.10, they are rated to tow a fair sized trailer.

  • That's like asking how high is up?

    If you're towing 2K yes, it has plenty of power.

    If you're towing 2oK, no it does not have plenty of power.

    Everything in between is in the eye of the beholder.
