Tow haul question
My last 2 diesels were equipped with a manual tranny - best thing for mountain towing. Now in my new 3500 it has the Aisin tranny with a 342 rear end. I will be towing a tow hauler TT of about 11,0...

Wow , wow ! Only use tow/haul when necessary . I tow every day in flat Florida , no tow haul necessary unless it is a heavy trailer . People who use it 100% of the time must live in mountains or something . I spot trailers mostly in the south and each trip is different . Your load should determine what gear to use ! A fellow who works beside me in the same kind of truck uses more than 10% more fuel than me when he uses tow haul . We deliver and move trailers for construction , manufacturers , and hot shot deliveries .
Only use what is needed , most times your truck will tell ya what you should be doing ! Why would use it if not needed . If the truck manufacturer thought it should be on all the time maybe he would have made them that way !
This is what I thought - loafing along on a flat highway why use TowHaul if it uses more gas - easy to turn it back on when needed.
