I tow a 12 foot utility trailer (1000 pounds) and use an 8" drop. I just towed the trailer with 3000 pounds of top soil on it pulled like nothing was back there. Tow haul mode works great. In the 08 when you have tow haul active it auto downshifts the tranny when you start breaking, pretty damn slick! I could tell the load was back there when braking, but not really when I was accelerating.

Thanks, I figured it would be about an 8 inch drop on mine as well. I guess I will hook it up and give it a try this week and see how I like it. I just don't know if I want to put that much use into it. I really like it and don't see a reason to trade it, as it only has 44k miles on it.
thanks for your advice.

If you use the H2 to haul the trailer it means more time behind the wheel of the H2....that is a beautiful thing! Its a tough truck, it will take it.
