what do i need to pull a chevy?
#17
I have a 99 F150 4x2 with 3.55 LS and tow pac and regularly haul a skid steer on a tandom trailer, close to 6500#. I just put it in drive and go, doesnt add much more than a couple sec to my 0-60 time. Heck, at 55-65 it wont shift out of over drive on a descent grade. So go for the pull, you will smoke him..

thanx for the info fellas. i would bet he doesnt even take my challege, he was talkin **** knowing that i wouldnt take a challege cuz he has more money than me if something went wrong. but i think it would be safe for me do ask him to pull the camper or even his boat, i'll tell let him choose. but i'll same something to him next week and keep you guys posted, especially if it goes down.

Ok , 4wd-low( more low end torque), hook to your tow ball , put 10 bags of cement in the bed, can be returned later to home depot. Pull slow and easy , let him break traction first, then gun it and pull is his sorry butt as far as you want or until he cries "Uncle". Then have a few beers and gloat.

D@mn JMC,
if you got that truck up to 80 in 4low than your either crazy or really rich, or very stupid (which i dont believe cuz i've read your posts) i dont think my truck has gotten past 5700 rpms. hm......i gave it some gas in 4low and it scared the hell out of me, i could just see myself trying to explain to a dealer what the situation was doing over 60 in 4low
thanx
