Just saying, we did it with out a problem in a 2001 Ram 1500. That's 5.9 gas not diesel.

I got that, wasn't calling you on it. Just clarifying that 20K was fifth wheel towing only.



Chebby's claiming a lot of segments firsts with this:

•Segment-best fifth-wheel towing capacity of 20,000 pounds (9,072 kg)
•Segment-best conventional towing capacity increases up to 23 percent, with a maximum of 16,000 pounds (7,272 kg)
•Segment-best payload capability of 6,335 pounds (2,873 kg) on a complete vehicle
•Segment-best Gross Combined Weight Rating increases to 27,500 pounds (12,500 kg)
•Gross Vehicle Weight Ratings increases up to 17 percent to 13,000 pounds (5,909 kg)
•Front Axle Weight Rating increases by up to 25 percent to 6,000 pounds (2,721 kg)
•Snow plow capability is now enabled for all 4WD cab configurations

All these numbers are equal to or less then the 2010 Super Duty. Not that great for an all new HD truck.

Haha I have to say that I think this was done as a joke. I mean come on this is a Ford family forum. But honestly I don't care about the towing or power its not a bad looking truck. Nothing else matters I will never own a vehicle from obama motors. No offense to anyone who praises obama.
