Colorado / Canyon w/ 2.8L Duramax

Does anyone here tow with a 2.8L Duramax equipped Colorado or Canyon?

Interested in hearing your experiences if you do tow with one of the above.
  • There are a number of video towing tests of the Colorado/Canyon with the 2.8 liter diesel on youtube. They might be of interest.
  • My buddy just bought one as his work truck. He was coming from a 4.7l V8 Dodge Dakota.

    He LOVES the truck. Uses it to tow a 16' enclosed work trailer that probably weighs around 4000 pounds depending on what is in it. He told me that the power was "significantly better" than the Dakota, and he is very happy with the MPG.
