GMC/Chevy Baby diesel, What can you tow with it?
Has anyone gone out yet and bought one of these 2.8 L inline 4 baby Duramax VM Motori made in Thailand diesels yet and pulled some travel trailer yet behind one of them?
I know the 4 banger is down at 181HP and 369ftlbs of torque from the 240HP and 406 ftlbs of my 2013 Touareg TDI Sport. Also down from the RAM Ecodiesel 3.0 V6 too.
In 4wd, should pull 7000 #'s, albeit I bet pretty slow.
Rumor also has it that the 6 speed transmission for 2016 model is going bye bye for an 8 speed gear box in 2018.
How does it tow with a lot of frontal area wind resistance?
