Any V6 should be fine except the Ram one, lol. In all seriousness if your not going up major grades I wouldn’t worry about it at all.Does anybody tow behind a Ram 1500 with the V6? Looking to upgrade from an older F150 5.0 and would love to get better MPG of the V6 if it tows well.
My Jeep Wrangler 2dr, technically, is only rated for 2000lb due to its short wheelbase so its they truckster.
We bought a RAM 1500 with the V6 and it tows like a dream. Our setup is good for 7450lbs.Does anybody tow behind a Ram 1500 with the V6? Looking to upgrade from an older F150 5.0 and would love to get better MPG of the V6 if it tows well.
LOL!!!! That was a good one. I was going to ask for a video of the Element pulling the 240 up the ramp and out of the water!!!! You got me that time!
I just use the element as a mule to maneuver in the driveway. Bad humor on my part. We have an F150 for the actual on the road towing.
