I should have mentioned that. We don't tow in my family. Truck was bough to haul stuff in the bed for the house. If you plan on towing, get the hitch!

For long distances races it goes on the trailer but for the most part it's an 8 sec street car.

How does it do fuel mileage wise, as well as maintaining a decent speed on highway?
ive been very impressed with the way my truck handles while pulling my camper. the mileage is not stellar but i didnt expect much considering im towing a small house behind me. i keep it at about 60 MPH on the highway but i could easily maintain a higher speed with no issue. with the WD hitch the truck sits level and is very stable on the road. i wouldnt hesitate at all to hook up and pull it across the country with this truck. oh yeah, as stated earlier, keep it out of OD.

Thanks for the info. I feel a bit better now about buying a camp trailer to tow with this truck. I was kinda on the fence....I was either going to wait until I get a new truck or buy something small like a pop up tent trailer. But since everyone is relatively happy with how they tow I wont sweat it as much. When the time comes I'll buy knowing my truck can tow it.
