Re: tow rigs
i use my 08 to tow 5-6k quite a bit and its great, barely know the trailer is there on everything but the steepest hills. the engine and trans change their behavior in tow haul mode, especially when braking. the trans will automatically downshift to match your braking with engine braking and then keep it there until you use the gas again so going downhill i only use the brakes once to set engine braking, even on the grapevine. i keep the dic on trans temp and the highest i've seen is 209.
