I have a late model chevy 2500 gas 6.0 4x4 long bed extended cab 10-12 pound tow rating. I'm gonna have to use it local for towing. But I was wondering if it would tow it 1700 miles.
ANy info on this matter would be great. Aluminum trailer,no sink boat.

Thanks

I pulled a triple engine 42 on a Myco 3 hours with a 2500 ext GMC SRW diesel. I think you will be fine. I couldn't tell the 42 was there. 47 is another story.

You should be ok, just be ready to buy allot of gas. I tow mine with a 2010 F-250 4x4 diesel. I put air bags on mine and it made a big difference in ride quality when towing. I also did a tuner and exhaust put it pulled good stock too.

I was pulling my 35 with the exact same truck as you have. From Baton Rouge to Destin Florida I was getting 98 miles out of a full tank of gas.
I added air bags to mine and it helped with the ride.
It was ok for pulling the boat local around my house, but long trips sucked!!!!!!!
The main reason I went to a diesel was it because that 6.0 works so hard getting the boat going.

Agree - I pulled my 35 with a 3/4 ton 6.0. Almost didn't get up the hill coming out of the State Park at LOTO. Had to put it in 4 low. Highway was a lot of fuel, boat ramp was fine - it just didn't like the long incline. You couldn't even tell it was back there with the new diesel.
Good luck.

You'll be fine... just allow plenty of room for braking. I pull my heavy 38 Scarab with 3/4 ton and the 8.1L. 1700 miles?!? Maybe call Exxon for a volume discount! Ha, which one are you dealing on?

Nice boat, seems like a really decent price also.
