Looking at getting a 2002 GMC Sierra 1500 with a 4.8L V8 with 46000 miles. Looks Cherry but really would like the V8 5.3L. Do you think it would make any difference pulling a 6000 lb trailer. Thanks ...
I notice you are in NorCal, if you stay on I-5 you will probably be fine. Otherwise the 4.8 will be woefully inadequate, the truck likely has 3.42 gears which makes a bad situation worse. Is the trailer 6,000# wet or dry? If dry add another 7-800# loaded ready to go.
