I'm researching both a tow vehicle and a 5er combo and want to make sure that whatever we end up with as a tow vehicle will do the job no matter where we travel. The steepest grades I can think of are in the Rockies, hence the title of this topic.
So, how much of a safety margin between the manufacturer's stated towing capacity and what you actually purchase would you want to have in order to be comfortable with occasional steep grades?
Thanks!!!
Honestly. You can SAFELY tow right up to the manufacturers posted capacity. They did the research, and math. No need for you to redo it, and lower the capacities the engineers developed.
