Re: [A/S] Towing Question



Kelly,
I had a '91 Astro that had a premium gas V6 and a HD
tow package which included a 4.10 rear axle. It was a
stump puller and was rated to handle 6,000 lbs.  I
pulled a 28 ft. SOB aluminum framed trailer which had
a dry weight of 4,800 lbs.  While I could tow with it,
the vehicle wasn't big enough in mass to make towing
comfortable.

Any A/S sized below 25' dependent upon weight, should
be okay based on my experiences.

Regards,

Jack
