What to look for in purchasing a tow vehicle for my TT

The tongue weight of the trailer is going to be around 1,000 lbs (15% of 6,500 lbs) Add the weight of passengers and the gear that will be in the truck and that will give you some idea of the payload capacity you’re going to need. If payload for the truck isn’t clearly stated you can calculate it by deducting the curb weight of the vehicle from the maximum gross weight shown on the driver’s door sticker.
