Who is towing what with their Ecodiesel?

[jdn112011]

I agree. Had I taken my time choosing a truck off the lot or built one, I would've went 3.92. They just get the train moving easier.

I actually ordered mine and specifically wanted the 3.55, and I was plenty happy. But things change and I just feel with the current tires the truck struggles a bit, I mean it does fine, but it COULD be happier, obviously rolling resistance will do that on a high MPG vehicle of any sort.

I bought my Ecodiesel to pull my travel trailer. I pulled my trailer with my 2500 Hemi before and have not tried it with my 2015 yet. Curious how everyone is finding the towing capability of the Ecodiesel.

I have a 1500 std cab longbed...Have tow'd a 24 foot aluminum enclosed trailer with mustangs all over country....I would estimate 6000 lbs Plus an in bed fuel transfer tank with 99 gals of diesel on board-another 800 lbs...I consistently get 13-17 mpg, depending on avg speed and crosswinds....Not bad, considering I was averaging 9-10 with F250, and 150 Fords.....

What's the weight on that little cruiser?

I haven't scaled it yet, I really don't know.

22.5' bayliner they tend to be pretty heavy, i'll guess 5500 or so on the trailer?

Here's mine towing my 22 ft aluminum bay boat. The truck doesn't even know it's back there.

Nice combo you got there. I'll bet the truck doesn't even know the boat is back there. Lol

R-Pod 171 Hood River (4" lift kit), ~2400lb, but tall. First test run of ~125 miles got 13.5mpg at 60-65mph a mix of steep hills and flats. Handles the frostheaved roads up here pretty well but will probably put a WD/Anti-sway hitch on it eventually.
