What gear to use to pull a car hauler

Highwayflyer · Aug 24, 2012

Gonna be getting a older camaro next week and gotta use my car hauler to get it home, should I keep the express in a lower gear or just let it alone in drive ? dont wanna hurt something

If you have an auto put it in tow/haul mode. The main thing is you don't want to lug the engine..or have the transmission hunting for gear.

^Yep. Just put it in tow/haul mode and go. If you have the EVIC, you can keep an eye on the transmission temp. If it's getting hot or seems like it's lugging, then you can take it down a gear.

yup, tow/haul....pulled my sons Mustang weeks after I got my Express, pulled like a champ!

even without tow/haul mode, you should pull that thing without a problem - them Hemi's got a little more than my old 5.2 that towed cars/trailers all over the country. Just hook her up and mash her!
