Default Towing 4,000 pop up

Towed the pop up to Texoma for the weekend ... Really good towing, avg around 16 mpg , running 65 mph .... used the tow/haul button
Really like the truck when you have to pass , really smooth and lots of power

With that small of a trailer I don't think the gears would matter.

I just have to ask......how in the world did pop up trailers get up to 4000lbs?
Is this a tent trailer or hard shell? My 22ft TT weighs in at 3700lbs. Anyway, the Hemi won't even notice your trailer, you will find yourself being careful not to go too fast.
