Before the weight police jump all over it, maybe they should learn the facts first.
Or maybe the OP should provide those "facts" :W ... has he actually weighed his truck with a full tank of gas and WD in the back, then done the math so he knows how much it really weighs ready to be hitched to a trailer ... or even more important has he even done the math so he knows how much real world payload he has to work with, not some fanciful number listed by the manufacturer? My bet is no he hasn't, nor has he likely weighed his trailer as it would typically be loaded for camping, nor has he likely measured it's gross tongue weight so he'd know how much of his available payload capacity he's using. Maybe, just maybe, ignornace is bliss because as he's already said "it tows well". :S. Hey, I don't have a horse in this race so I really don't care ... but for myself, I like to know what I'm dealing with ... imagine that. :W
Exactly my point. Ask the OP for these details before freaking them out by saying their new vehicle is inadequate when it may actually be a perfect match.
