thats been my experience too. I drive a 07 duramax repo truck. Works great, with less weight. If I have to pull a big truck or repo an rv it really really notices the weight. My cummins ofcourse likes being hooked to the heavy stuff.

Seems like once it goes over about 10000 lbs.....is the time for a different truck.

I think the reason he was in the left (hammer) lane was so that he could not draft the dodge and give the chev any advantage.

Do I agree with people being in the left lane? No. To prove a point on video? You bet, especially if its to get a manufacturer to correct a known issue.

That's just like the Chevy issues up here when they went to rear disk brakes on the their trucks. If you drove them on gravel roads, it would chew up the calipers and disks. Chevy's solution was "do not drive your 4 wheel drive trucks on gravel roads".

Good video and interesting that there was NO smoke coming out of that dodge at all.
