I pulled a 8000 pound 27 foot camper and a 10,000+ pound 27 foot cabin cruiser. Ya, no fun pulling that kind of weight.

Hope you get her fixed up right soon Man. Ya those requirements are bull. My Dodge dually weighs 5600, has a 10,500 tow capacity and I haul a 8600 boat and trailer conbo around all summer with no problems. Having trailer brakes makes a huge difference.

didn't you tear up your flex plate

Me??? Nope. Cummins Powered Mopar 6 speed Auto with OD. One of the few things that has lasted over the years.

hmm someone on here had a dodge dually that they tore the plate on

Looks like you are off to the track!

Oops, forgot to update this! My car is back home and running like brand new again. I've been driving it everywhere the past few days, my truck is having a break for now!
