Re: What factors Determine Tow Rating
So far not planning on towing more than 6000#.
Trailer and car are at 5800#
Pulling with Caprice wagon with a 350LT1.
Can make the tougher sustained mountains holding 70mph.
Engine temperature on hot days is about 230 F.
Been replacing transmissions about every year and half.
The new PerformaBuilt is doing better.
Dodge RT Durango has 8 speed.
GM uses 8 and 10 speeds.
Preferences to use the 6.2 over 5.3 are consistent.
Just more torque and power.
Was looking at the GMCanyon Diesel.
Has tow rating 7600#
Dodge RT at 7400# but has more torque and power.
GM Tahoe and Pick ups are at 8400#
