[QUOTE="byz250f, post: 1188935, member: 22917"] Hey guys I picked up our travel trailer last week and was a bit nervous to see how this thing would tow it. My brother in law had me freaked out that it was going to squat a ton even with the WDH on it as his Ram 1500 did. He had to do airbags on his truck even with the WDH. Regardless I was pretty impressed with how well it did. Truck sat almost perfectly level and I have RPG 1.5 collars up front and stock in rear. Fuel mileage I averaged 9.7mpg at 70-75 mph for 180 miles towing this. Trailer sway was almost non existent as I put a sway control bar on the truck. Power wise I was in 9th gear 100% of the time on level ground, and even on some slight upgrades. It would drop to 8th gear when climbing some grade. Overall I was very impressed with how well it did. Nothing about towing this trailer made me feel uncomfortable. Trailer is 32ft long and is 7k. We had 1400lbs of payload and that included the tongue weight of trailer....ya I know we were 200lbs over the max payload. [ATTACH=full]91573[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
