I've done it, all across Europe... 7,6 meters/1600kgs trailer, 12 meter total length.


The 3.8 however has a better gearbox and powerrange. but thats not the question.

For us US people thats 3500 Lbs... This is just about the point of towing another transport behind you.. Its still a lot of weight to stop or move for that matter.. The 4T60-E Trans was only meant to move 6000 Lbs on a good day... With the right package it could do 7000 Lbs, but even that is asking a lot..

Can it be done... Yes it can... Would I recommend it? Um.. No...
