You can pull a tractor trailer, so the more important question is how much can you pull and stop safely. Before I got the diesel, dad's 97 would handle 10k pretty good, but thats with a M5OD. I'd only trust an auto to do that with a big cooler AND a temp gauge.

yah i think the 5-6000 dry weight trailers are good range to aim for.

 

that is about what i thought it was around 5000 to 5500lbs to be safe, thanks
