Well its not a dooly, but it pulls the 252 like a champ. my 1500 did a good job, but this thing just does not bounce, or feal a hill.
the next boat its going to feal i am sure but should do the job. (342 hopefully)
FYI, the truck makes 593 HP, and 1005 Tq, haha cant tow like that it would **** a tranny but its pretty bad on the street. ha

Practicality aside, I guess it's theoretically possible to have too big a truck but I have not gotten to that point. Last weekend, at the ramp, I saw a dually pulling a Waverunner, and a Tahoe pulling a 42' Cigarette Tiger. Neither made much sense but I felt safer being on the highway with the dually / waverunner, than the guy with a Tiger on his tail.

Yea from what i have heard the alisons dont like that much power, but if you are not getting on it all the time and racing it, it does not know the difference. The part thats hard on them is a big load with lots of power, like towing, or a 3-5 gear pull. I bought it to be a truck not a hot rod, i got a C6 vette for that.
