I was looking into getting a camper to go boondocking and was trying to find one light enough for my V6 to pull. It's rated at about 7300 pounds, but most people say not to try to pull more than 5000 with it from what I've read.
The reason is more of stopping power and acceleration up grades and my truck is a regular cab 2wd that isn't heavy enough to withstand strong gusts of wind.
I looked into a 3.0 Ecodiesel and a 5.0 Titan as a possible trade, but I would really take a big loss on trade value. The Titan 5.0 Cummins was supposed to be a fantastic engine, but it's turned out to be a basket case.
Anyone pull a camper with a V6? How heavy?
