Sounds like you need to pay more attention to the condition of your trailer brakes. So what you are telling me is with an HD truck you would stopped on a dime coming off that ramp? I have towed a 30 ft boat with no brakes behind my F350 and had to think way ahead.
BTW the 20 were not stock in 06, so you upgraded your rolling mass without upgrading the brakes, then decided to tow a boat with shotty brakes on the trailer? WOW.
I've read the SRW DRW thread, I have seen the videos, I think a lot of you are just crazy.
Again....on topic I wouldn't tow a 35 cig of that year with a 1/2 ton. I will tow my 02 38 fountain with one.

No, I am not telling you an HD truck would have stopped the boat on a dime coming off that ramp. I am telling you my 2004 2500 HD DMax would have stopped the boat/trailer much sooner and without destorying its brakes.
BTW, GMC offered 20" chrome 6-spoke aluminum wheels as a factory option in 2006. Look it up. Those wheels along with the factory Goodyear Eagle LS tires are what were on my 20K mile Denali XL at the time of the incident. After destroying the factory rotors/pad, I installed Brembo brakes.
Again, BS on your comment that a 2006 Denali pulls a 39 Hustler like it is a couple of jet skis.
