Kind of a low tow rating if your towing a boat.
It's 2", and I'm planning on renting a 18' Minnie Winnie trailer, 1801FB.
Specs
My owner's manual says a G1500 Passenger with 5.7L and 3.42 rear end can pull 5,600 max trailer weight, 11K GCWR.
In another spot in the manual, "If you'll be pulling a trailer that, when loaded, will weigh more than 4,000 lbs, be sure to use a properly mounted, weight-distributing hitch and sway control of the proper size."
Trailer specs says it's 3,300 dry, 3,700 fully loaded.
I think I'll be okay, what do you'all think?
Please re-read the specs on the trailer, the empty weight is 3,300 Lbs, The
CARRYING CAPACITY is 3,700 Lbs(additional weight you can add to trailer)
The GVWR of the trailer is 7000 Lbs A load distributing hitch will be needed at a minimum. The way that travel trailers like that seem to take on weight with essentials I'm not so sure you can even move that trailer legally with your van.
