That's funny; my dodge has a 318 and a 3.55 rear axle, is only a "half-ton", and is rated to tow 7200lbs. but its a 4x4, so has those extra parts. anyway, I find it to be a tad pokey on the hills towing a trailer that is much lighter than the one we're talkin' about in this thread. (mine is 5500gvw). I wouldn't want to go much heavier.

so what's the difference w/ the 3/4 ton? could have an entirely different tranny, I suppose. but still, the "rated" difference isn't much.
