So you bought an under optioned truck and now youre disappointed?

Itll cost more to upgrade this truck than just choosing the right one in the first place.....unless this one was a hand me down......

Well hopefully your boats not very heavy. Larger tires would help a bit. I just dont wanna hear any stories of you needing a Chevy to pull ya outta the lake.

put some weight in the truck or a lot of tongue weight on the trailer should help
a little with traction. limited slip is not the fix all as it will "break away" and you
will have 1wd still

Get some good tires on there and creep it out of the unloading dock. You floor it, you'll sit there spinning. I wouldn't be disappointed, the 4.6 is a much more reliable engine...
