We’ve heard the buzz about the 2014 Chevrolet Silverado for some time
now. The roomy cabin gives everybody more space and makes the family
trips more of a delight. What will you do in your new 2014 Chevrolet
Silverado? If you said tow your family boat or camper, then today’s post
is for you.
This should go without saying, but the best way to get your family safely to
the vacation destination while towing, is to adjust your driving. No need
to put unnecessary wear and tear on your vehicle by speeding. Take turns
slower than you normally would and last but not least, merge with the
consideration of the additional length of your tow. Safety is just as
important as the way you attach the cargo to your vehicle.
Size matters in operating a vehicle for a specific task. Make sure you
have the proper size truck for the proper weight. If you are looking for
a truck to tow something already in your possession, be sure to bring along the
specifications to the dealership while you are shopping. Your consultant
will be able to better assist you with your needs. If you have a truck
and you’re looking for a boat or camper, make sure to research what your
vehicle is capable of handling before a major purchase.
The hitch on your truck is just as important as knowing the tow capacity.
A class III hitch can handle up to a 5,000 pound capacity and a class IV hitch
can handle up to 7,500 pounds. The hitch will have a receiver bar that
you connect the draw-bar to. Then a pin slides through both pieces and
then holds them in place with a clip. If your vehicle is too tall, you
have the option of purchasing a draw-bar that drops so your tow is level.
