Have a 4lb pulley and is a daily driver. Think nothing of taking a 500 to 600 mile trip TDY in it.

I tow with a 4#. I have a superchip flip with the tow mode on one side. I just try to stay out of heavy boost. Although, my boat w/ equip is probably somewhere around 4100 to 4200 pounds, the truck doesn't even break a sweat pulling with little to no boost. That is even with my heavy foot
