Hey guys im looking to go pick up a parts truck tomorrow and i only have 2 trucks my white 350 and my 1/2 chevy and i was wondering what you guys thought i could safely tow with it. The truck im picking up is a 2002 cclb with no drive train so its just a cab box and axles so im guessing about 3000lbs and the trailer im getting is about 3000 as well. the gvwr for it was about 7200 so i figured i outta be fine right its just kinda far away and would like to not tow it with my 350 if i dont have to. (oh and ik get all the chevy jokes outta the way before you post please

)

Just out of curiosity, why do you not want to tow with your Ford?

But the Chevy should be fine if it's a short distance. But honestly, if you got a 1 Ton, I'd use that..

I'm sure you can but I probably wouldn't. I pulled about 8k in my 97 Chevy half ton about 50 miles. It wasn't fun.
