Dealers seem to say great things about any tow vehicle. If you blow your transmission or engine, they have no real responsibility in the situation. Especially a legal one. I agree 100% with Bill. I pull my 2720SD with a vehicle rated at 6000 pounds capacity and 600 pounds tongue weight and it is just about OK in the hills of the Adirondacks. I believe in "margin" in doing things. Towing a 3500 pound trailer with a 3500 pound capacity tow vehicle offers no margin. Add on outside temperature, hills and extra cargo we all tend to take when camping and well things tend to get exceeded fairly quick.

Just my honest opinion.
