Towing report 10k

Weight police!

 

Or maybe I'm just trying to understand the actual setup he's using. If that thing is pushing 1000lbs of tongue weight and there's no WDH, I'm impressed at how well it's holding that tongue weight without squatting.

I'd honestly say I'm close to that, trailer is very balanced, at some point I'll try n weigh it and report

The boat trailer weighs 10k lbs? Looks like a 27 ft Formula, I would say it weighs 7500 lbs at most considering its on a tandem axle trailer. Good looking boat and truck though!

Ah, yes then that makes sense. That's a lot of boat to pull with a half ton pickup.

Ya for sure maxed, but most of my towing is within 5 miles with the exception of a few trips a year, and at 15k a year a 3/4 ton would kill me, it really does pull great, my 05 did OK to except for a large hill I did once or twice a year, the six speed tranny really makes this thing tow with ease and the active brake control in tow mode makes any slowing down a breeze, guy down the street has a large camper, he had a 3/4, I noticed he came home with a new max tow the other day, gotta see which power plant he has very curious
