Why are this trucks not rated to tow a large trailer?
Salesman told me 12k of max towing
They could more then likely sell more if they promoted them more- somebody asked about towing tow rating depending how the vehicle is equipped is 17500-19500
That is incorrect. Selling one today that weighs 10,000 lb with 34,000 GCWR. So 24,000 max trailer – any additional truck payload.

Dodge Knock Off? Kind of like what the Chinese do.
These trucks need a gasoline option
Other thing that is wrong is there are lots of 2019 on the ground for sale. GM just decided to report them all sold even though they are still sitting unsold at dealerships. I guess it makes then look better but it screws dealerships.
