Welcome to owning a Cummins!!! I smile every time I hook the camper up..... I have had person after person tell me that all I need is a nice half ton truck and I am overkilling it...... I just smile and say probably and then grin ear to ear as the cruise is set on an 8% grade and it never shifts out of overdrive!
GVW of 7,500#, are you constantly checking the mirrors to see if it still there???
On the flat or small hills I need to check to see if my 11,K 5er is still back there, I set the cruse to keep from going too fast, I do know it is back there when I get to the serious hill, but I still maintain speed the Cummins just needs to work a little harder. I am a bit over the tow rating for the 3.55 gears, but I just haven't told the engine that!!
