There we go - actual common sense
I often wonder about good old common sense anymore. If you listen to this ridiculous numbers game, here is what it says.
1-You need a 3/4 ton truck to haul a 6,000 lb trailer.
2-A 3/4 ton truck is incapable of hauling Arctic Fox's smallest pickup camper.
3-A 1 ton truck is marginal in hauling that same camper with 11,300 GVWR.
4-A 1/2 ton truck with a payload of 3120 lbs, is just a 1/2 ton truck.
5-A 1/2 ton truck with GVWR of 8200 lbs and a tow capacity of 11,300 lbs with a free floating axle will have problems in the mountains because it is a 1/2 ton truck regardless of horsepower.
I missed a lot but I don't have time for it now!:B
