I75 North bound outside Fort Meyers
Left Sanibel Island yesterday and just got on I75 North bound and I see a newer Montana closing on me in the passing lane. Didn't thing much about it until the TV was along side and I realized it was a Crew Cab Toyota Tundra pulling that Montana. Didn't know there were making them that light.

I think I remember reading some where that both Toyota and Nissan are going have Cummings Diesel-Engines as an option in 2016

Its not about getting it going but being able to stop and control it. and the Toyota are all half ton.

If I remember correctly, some of the High Country's touted being light enough to tow with a 1/2 ton.

My HC can be pulled by a F150 when properly equipped. But is it safe, I don't think so and I have a 2015 F150. Pulling a Montana with a Toyota safely NO way. That is just too much camper. It's too heavy and long to be stable. Go look at tow limits J2807. These tow limits don't really mean much.

I don't know what it is, but today on Rt27 in Sebring, FL a 1/2 ton Dodge V8 passed us pulling an older Montana. I wonder if they purchased for the same Dealer?? I know Lazydays will run the TV numbers, provided the Salesman can even figure out the chart, but in the end if you TV isn't up to Snuff, they just make you sign a disclaimer stating you were informed that your TV was not sufficient and send you on you way with that shiney new RV.
