Towing mpg

[music]

BTW-if they are ST tires THEY ARE NOT RATED FOR 65 MPH FOR PROLONGED PERIODS.

 

 

ST tires are rated for 65 mph @ max pressure and load. My experience is that they only hold up a few years when running near their max loads at highway speeds (up to 65), so that's another reason to slow down a bit.

Isn't 3:42's a bit of a high gear for a 5.3.....i'd think 3:73 at a minimum if your pulling......

 

He probably has the 6spd tranny, which actually has more "grunt" (so to speak) compared to a 4spd/4:10 set up.

 

The last time I looked the minimum inflation for trailer tires was 50 pounds. BTW-if they are ST tires THEY ARE NOT RATED FOR 65 MPH FOR PROLONGED PERIODS.

 

 

Depends on the load range of the tires! C is MAX 50psi, D MAX 65psi ( If I remember right), E MAX 80psi.
