Found out last minute I will need pick up my boat/trailer from a friend's house that's about 170 miles from where I live. The boat/trailer weights roughly 5100 lbs. Currently my truck (Limited w/6'4" bed) only has 140 miles on it. By the time I get out to my friend's house it will have a little over 300 miles on it. And from what I've read, it's recommended to not tow anything until after 500 miles. The first 110 miles back home will be relatively a straight and level drive. Then the next 50-60 miles will be going up and down grades. The rest of the way will be down hill and level driving. With that said, would there be a huge concern of me damaging the powertrain because I'm under the recommend 500 miles and barely hitting the 300 break-in period?
