I know I’m at the upper end of my tow rating, but I’ve never felt uncomfortable while towing. I’m thinking of getting a Toyota Tundra. As long as the tow capacity and payload capacity is the same or exceeds that of my Silverado, shouldn’t I expect roughly the same experience towing? I want to make sure the Tundra would be up to the task. Thanks.
I have never seen a Silverado 1500 with a 1,600 payload-but I will take your word for it. In the real world-you are really should look in to a 2500.
The Tundra will not be any better.
