Just last week on our way back from Banff on the 28th of August we saw a 37' trailer laying on it's side blocking two of the Westbound lanes as we came down the Coquihalla from the summit. The tow vehicle was a 2011-2016 F350 CCLB SRW diesel, heavily damaged, sitting on a rollback. Weather was clear and sunny.
Respectfully, what does this have to do with anything? Do you have any clue WHY that big heavy truck rolled? I doubt it, or else you would have added that into your statement. If anything, you have just proven that driver ability and driving technique are equally as important as having the correct vehicle.
I agree that when towing bigger/heavier tow vehicles are better (to a point), but the OP is within his numbers. Unless you are making monthly payments and paying for a portion of his fuel...why do you care?
