Tips to Tow in Your 2014 Chevrolet Silverado
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.
