In a way, the front end, this thing resembles the Porsche Chyanne, BMW X6, Lexus and Toyota Highlander, and even the Mazda XC9. I wish them great success, keep the American auto industry moving. In the same note, there are those that want a much more stout and utilitarian vehicle such as the older K5 Blazer and the Full size Bronco. I loved them both but did enjoy my Eddie Bauer Bronco much better and especially being able to take the roof off.

In case anyone’s interested, Demontrond GMC has over $14K off on their 18 crew cabs in Houston Tx, ask for James Saville Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Unless you’re having issues with your current truck, keep it! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I own fifth wheels, fifth wheels are safer to tow, with 3/4 ton and one ton trucks not half tons. Half ton trucks don’t have the pay load neither the front end, brakes, rear end axle, etc to handle it. Yeah, my reflection on this discussion is you can take the idiot out of the trailer park but not the trailer park out of the idiot! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Congrats on your choice to switch to GM. I’ve owned them all, the 5.3 is sufficient but the 2500 is built for towing beefed up suspension brakes rear end, transmission etc. I don’t know about the 6.0, only owned diesels but I’ve heard good things about it. For only 3-4K you can’t go wrong with either, get the one with the most creature features. Good luck and god bless Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

That’s what they’re paid for, keeping us safe. Especially from cheap irresponsible people with obvious zero respect for anyone else on the road. I’m not interested in the least bit what you or any other persons thoughts are on this subject, it’s a waste of time. I’ve owned a huge amount of trucks and SUV’s in my life and never once have I ever heard of anything as stupid as this. Btw, when I said something funny earlier about slapping the [emoji90] out of someone towing a fifth wheel in a half ton I didn’t direct it to any one person. As one of my employees mentioned to me, It’s like trying to advise a group of kindergartners on how to invest, some people are just set in their ways no matter what or who their actions affect.

I just had to ask a TX DPS officer today about it and he too agreed with me. He said if he finds it in his judgment that it’s an unsafe load he’ll have it towed with tickets. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

It wouldn’t be the first time this has happened. Every time I disagree with someone in here they start getting hostile and get to name calling, ridiculous but it is what it is. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

They come out of the wood work in here! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Wow! I never insulted you, was having a little fun, in case you didn’t know, cnn is know for fake news. Look, lets just stop here, never intended for your feeling to be hurt. First time I’ve seen this, not that it makes a difference. Just because you can do it doesn’t make it right, besides I bet that chart is for non public road use, used on ports and train stations lol Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

This is the GM towing specs for a 1500 with zero fifth wheel setup included! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Where did you find that on CNN? Just looked mine up through GM website and only states my towing capacity with my truck as a bit over 9k pounds and no where on there a 1500 being used as a fifth wheel Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I just spoke with one of my dealership sponsors, he said there’s noway GM would even suggest towing a fifth wheel is safe with a half ton truck. He said he’d like to sell you a real tow vehicle, preferably a diesel but doesn’t want your half ton you’ve been using as a fifth wheel tow vehicle as a trade in. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
