These post are silly when it comes to towing. Experience and common sense can do a lot. My tow rig is a 2001 Chevy 1500 4x4. 5.3L, auto (w/cooler). 3.73 gearing, 10 ply tires, K&N cold air, 3"x18" glass pack, and no programmer. My trailer is a 20' home built with 2 - 6000 lb axles, 4 new 12" brakes.
My last haul was 680 miles round trip. CAT scales tickets said 10,160 going and almost 18,000 return trip. Allis Chalmers 180, loaded tires.
1400 lbs each, 200 miles one-way
I dare to say heavier than an AC 180.
Another nasty load. 60 miles at night in the rain on secondary roads.
