I went camping this weekend, towed the new trailer (7300 bare-10300 full). It is amazing how the entire trip I was less than half throttle. I have a superchips on tow mode. I was afraid to step on it because I have no gauges yet, and it towed at half throttle or less with the turbo whinning just a little. It is funny when I compare it to building big blocks for the old Chevy suburbans & crew cabs of the past. I remember assembling big block Chevys for suburbans & crew cabs at my brother's old shop. For the day they were great tow machines, but nothing like this.

 

yeah just wait til you see some guys face when you go blowing by him up a hill with that trailor in tow! its priceless!!!!

 

Sounds like another "I will never own another gasser again" guy is born
I did the same thing but it was with a old 93 12v CTD
the Cummins seems to do this to most people

 

I agree its so nice passing cars and other trucks going up hill when your pulling a trailer.. I will never own another gas truck either..Diesel all the way

 

Just be carefull in snow conditions. I have a switchable Bullydog module and a larger turbo. That spells trouble on snow. I back down all the settings to stock and still have to be very carefull. With the old gasser you could just mash the go pedal and not spin a tire. I find myself in 4WD high on snow covered roads now. The Cummins is the answer for towing. Enjoy!
