Towing advice
#11
You should be fine with the Hemi. You can't use a weight distributing or sway control hitch because the trailer has surge brakes. Surge brakes + sway control/weight distributing hitch is a no go. The sway control interferes with the surge braking operation of the trailer.
Just keep in mind that you have no sway control as you're towing and you should be fine. That means keep the speed down. I wouldn't go any faster than 60-65 if it was me and I'd be really careful even in that instance. If it starts to feel like it's swaying, let off the gas, keep the wheel straight. DO NOT hit the brakes, DO NOT hit the gas, and DO NOT turn to try and correct it.
Or you could just give me a call and I'll come out and drive the GTO to Dallas for you.
