Tow vehicles are a 2002 Chevy Trailblazer 4.2L I6 w/ 4L60E & 1996 Jeep Cherokee 4x4 4.0L w/ AW4 auto tranny.
Both vehicles have tranny coolers.
Trailer is about ~500 pounds and the truck bed on top is about ~500 pounds. Sometimes I haul the ATV (also about 500 pounds) and sometimes I don't, sometimes I haul other stuff. Trailer will never weigh over 2,000 pounds.
Do I tow in Drive or 3rd gear? And which do I use when? Sometimes I tow the trailer at 75 mph for about 100 miles of interstate driving other times it goes across town or to Home Depot.
Fuel economy goes way down in 3rd gear when out on the highway.
Thanks for the info.
