i pull my mustang to and from the track often without much issue. my truck dont seem to like the weight but will carry it. i have had my trailer and about 5500lbs on it, i have had a little over a ton in the bed itself. i cant complain about this truck much, it takes it and keeps going. a steeper gear would help out a lot, or more torque.

they do good enough you wont go fast, and you have to plan everything, but when the parents are away the kids will play
