Towing with the 345
Guys,
I am new to the Airforum, but would like to see if I can post a question. I am considering the purchase of a 30 (something) foot 345 (7.4 litre) chevy driven Airstream and noticed it had a class III hitch on the back. Considering it has good brakes and solid engine, what could I expect the max towing to be with this vehicle?
I would like to pull a 2006 Jeep Wrangler (rubicon) as me and my wife are considering some cross country ventures over the next couple of years. The jeep weighs in at about 3600 lbs but could put it on a "master-tow" dolly if that made it easier.
The engine seems strong, the brakes probably need some work, but is this thing capable of pulling that comfortably? any gusses on gas mileage? (I hear the 345 gets about 7-10 by itself)
thanks
future owner 345
Chuck
