I've had this combination on a couple of 100+ mile excursions now.  This is a smooth pull for my V6.  MPG are much better cruising at 60 mph than 70!

Looks great!  You're pulling this with a 4.3?   If so,  what is the weight of your trailer?

Very impressive!  My trailer pictured above is 3900 lbs dry.  I am very pleased with how well my 4.3 pulls and your combination demonstrates that I have power to spare!

The 6.0L handled the load quite well.  I had the boat full of stuff, under the quad was full of stuff, and 3 people plus a cooler in the cab.  She was well loaded, cruised at 60MPH (100kph) for a 120 Mile trip (200km) and averaged about 8mpg according to the truck calculation.

What did you pull your ATV's front tires on to raise it up?

I actually used the old style red metal oil change ramps with a couple 2x6 boards underneath the front of them. If I didn’t have the tonneau cover it probably would have fit with just the ramps. The metal ramps are about 1-2” higher than the new plastic style ones.

Very cool. My dad has a set of those red metal ones. I may have to "borrow" them!  :D
