Like I said , I towed the Manchee back from Bible Hill , I never even knew it was behind me . I towed MY XJ behind it too , tows great ! I borrowed it one time to take the kids camping , down to upper clements park . On the way back I got stuck behind 5 cars doing maybe 75 km's , I finally got a chance to pass , and buy the time I hit the lead car , I looked down , and I was doing a buck 60 That is the one thing that is scary , it drives so good , that you don't even know how fast you are going , If I owned one , I don't think I would have my license very long ;D Cool -check your PM ;D

For what it is worth I have a '98 Chev 1/2 ton with a 4.3 coupled to a 5spd that I haul a double horse trailer with often. I also use it to go get hay (with my latest trailer 3 round bales at a time) with no issues at all. Unless you want to work it hard you have to slow down going up some hills when hauling, but I've never been 30 below the limit. Hauled horses to/from the Valley, Amherst, etc with no issues. More power would be nice but not necessary, I'd rather 4wd first as I have been stuck a couple times with the trailer on... (wet grass on a hill + load + rwd = not fun...)

One question; do you use the side steps? ;D I'm almost certain your passenger does.
