I hooked up my wife's little 2-horse bumper pull tonight and was AMAZED!
I could spin the tires in 2nd gear from a stop. I could practically drag race the truck (no horses loaded, just empty trailer) from 0-60. Every gear had pull, even sixth.
I think I'm going to like this truck LOTS.
I did notice that at about 80-85 the truck runs out of steam. Guess the manual trans trucks just aren't cut for speed... but I'm not complaining. I'd never pull a trailer that fast anyhow...
Made the right choice going with the Ram...
