I am ignorant of diesels so someone help me please.
This truck is rated for 2765lbs payload and I think I saw somewhere that its tow rating will be around 5000lbs. Am I the only one who finds the specs for the engine a little light for this type ratings? I am sure if the build it right, that it can carry this weight or tow that load, but will it be able to get up to 65mph within a couple miles?
I am not trying to be negative here but it seems like this is going to quite the slowpoke.
The torque in this isn't much better than my 3.0 V6 and I got 70 more hp.
So, it will be better with grunt off the line at much lower rpm but that's about it.
I look forward to test driving it, but I won't have any idea what it does towing a 2500lb trailer.
