RE: Towing with 6.2l 3.23 gear ratio
I towed a 8400lb loaded trailer with the 6.2 / 8 speed w/ 3.42 with no problems whatsoever. Of all the combos I’ve had, that was one of the best. It was the best towing mileage I ever got also. Consistently 11 mpg.

RE: RV Service Experiences- Two Different Service Centers
Sounds like you’re redoing everyone’s shoddy work. Maybe you should just do it yourself in the first place?

For the first time, I didn’t hear many boos. He’s probably disappointed in that! Lol

RE: New 1500 series pickups and Hensley Arrow
Ok you never mentioned max tow. Just the tow package. Those are 2 different packages. People get confused and see the high tow rating and assume that’s what they have. Her towing capacity will be posted on the drivers door jamb.
Here’s the fine print on your link:
1 Maximum trailering ratings are intended for comparison purposes only. Before you buy a vehicle or use it for trailering, carefully review the Trailering section of the Owner’s Manual. The trailering capacity of your specific vehicle may vary.

RE: New 1500 series pickups and Hensley Arrow
I’ve never towed with a half ton nor have I towed a tag axle RV. My sister has a newer GMC Denali 1500 with the baby Duramax and tow package. The truck is rated to tow up to 13000 lbs. She has no experience towing. The trailer they are planning on buying is a 24 foot tandem axle tag trailer with a GVWR of about 6000 lbs. Is buying a Hensley Arrow hitch for such a small trailer of much value or is the GM anti sway control along with a typical weight distribution hitch more than adequate to provide a safe and pleasant towing experience?
You might want to double check that tow capacity because it’s nowhere near 13,000. Depending on what configuration of cab/box she has, the most it would be is 9,100. And I’m not saying that the truck can’t tow the camper she wants. That sounds like a good match.

RE: Overloaded or wrong truck?
Impossible to tell unless I was in truck during failure. Truck should be capable.

RE: Nascar Follies
Bumping someone out of the way or getting them loose is all part of the sport, yes. But running somebody down and slamming into them at a super speedway is a whole other level. Maybe not to the casual fan. Especially when they’re obviously having crash problems with this new generation car. Crashes have already ended one drivers career this year and there’s another’s in question at the moment. He’s lucky his hotheadedness didn’t cause a lot more carnage. Not to mention leaving the car, fighting, and hands on an official. He got off easy as expected.

RE: Winterizing Question
No need to drain pump and after winterizing you can open low point drains and let any water out and antifreeze will follow. Also don’t forget to take screen off city water connection and push check valve to let water out. Do this last after winterizing. Make sure pressrin system is minimal or you’ll get an antifreeze bath.
