Yea I did it while I was talking to grumpy ass.
Carol had visitors so i was back in the garage.

 

Some never learn

 

Speaking of did you pull it off ???????

Cypher

 

I told you I did 7 hours ago.

 

This is from my RV website lol some people really shouldn't be allowed to own a vehicle . The discussion is towing the camper with this truck note the BOLDED statement.

2017 GMC Canyon All Terrain Diesel with mid-tall ARE shell. 2014 19' Escape. The gross combined weight with 2 people, and full fresh, LP and diesel tanks is 9854 punds.

18 mpg towing at 60 - 500 miles round trip, Bisabee, AZ
16 mpg towing at 70 - 130 miles to Quartzsite, AZ
17 mpg towing at 65 - 130 miles from Quartzsite, AZ

I tow mostly with tow/haul mode off (so it will use 6th gear when it can.)

It towed with less fuss (engine/trans) than my old 2005 4.8L V8 Tundra. The difference was especially noticeable on the grade just outside of Bisbee.

 

Well, It won't be long before he finds out that overdrive on an automatic isn't made for towing.

 

Mmmmmmmm
Trying for max fuel economy I guess.

 

I guess but on a guess not knowing enough about transmissions if they give you a tow / haul you may want to use it so you do not damage the transmission ?

Yea well tow mode usually has a different shift pattern and keeps the engine rpm's higher. Puts less strain on everything. So towing 10k I'd want to be using it.

 

Night bud I guess so playing in the rocks more power to you on that stuff.

That was what my thought was , damn it I wish Toyota would bring the diesel for the Tacoma . I would give it a year and then own one .
