I agree 100%. We had no experience towing a TT prior to this setup so we didn’t really know what to expect. Temps stayed right in the middle the entire trip despite spending 2 days driving across SD with temperatures above 100 so I guess Chevy did a decent job with the cooling setup on this engine. With that said, there’s no way I’d go anywhere near 9300lbs. It would take 15 miles to reach a cruising speed :)
If we upgraded (not that I want to take there hit on trading a brand new truck) what differences would I expect with the same trailer with the v8 1/2 ton and/or the 3/4 ton in the same situation?
