Re: [A/S] Tow 34' wide body with 6 liter GMC
Rich,
That trailer weighs 9800 pounds on the road...... the truck you are asking
about is not rated to tow anywhere near that much.
It will pull it...... but it will be underpowered, under built, under braked
and you would not be happy.
If you want a GM vehicle to tow that trailer safely look at the 2500HD
models...with the biggest gas or diesel engine. Sometimes it just makes sense
to give up economy and this is one of those times. That's my opinion. I have
a 25' widebody trailer and sold a 5.7 liter Suburban because I didn't think
it had enough power to manage the trailer.....
