This certainly isn't the news you wanted to read after buying your truck. It is a nice truck, but it isn't built for the job you intend it for. If you move ahead with your plans, you will soon see what Jim is talking about. The torque rating is anemic for a rig the size of these Montanas. Very few of us pull without diesels. And those that do, have big-block motors. The idea to buy something smaller that is within your truck's capabilities is a good one. Also rv'ing isn't for everyone. This would give you a chance to see how you like it and decide if you want to take the plunge and go for the big rig, with the big truck. White-knuckling down a mountain pass being pushed by the behemoth behind you is no fun and there is no substitute for a big tow-rig.
