First payload is only 43xx (can't remember exactly). Some of the larger Arctic Fox TCs that I want are over 5000 wet.
Second, the axle ratio is 3.42. I thought I wanted something over 4 to max towing and pulling ability?
Finally, what options do I need to have on this vehicle to do what I Want? Is there a 'towing package' or some such? This one has a 180 A alternator and the cold weather group which Dave Smith says is the engine block heater. Someone on another one of the boards suggested I make sure to get an Auxiliary switch which has some kind of power to various outboard options, I don't know if that's listed as a separate option but it's not listed in the spec sheet on this vehicle.
I guess the 4x4, the crew cab, and the diesel each eat into payload. Is this what I'm going to be stuck at?
Thanks guys (and gals).
You've got the payload #s way wrong. 4300 is for the 3500 SRW. The Duallies are in the +5xxx range, no matter the trim level.
