    Can you go into more detail??What year is the truck?? Gears? auto? what will the weight of the mud trucks and trailers be? And where do you live? The truck will tow great on the flats of Kansas but if you live near the rockies you will be pushing it up the gradeswaytogo

    Need more info on the trucks and trailer too. If you are hauling two 1-ton fullsizes on 44's on a 32' equipment trailer, then you can expect to not go anywhere with any kind of speed, not to mention that kindof load behind a SRW 3/4 ton pickup is going to draw attention.

    If you are hauling two lightweight mudracers on a lightweight trailer, you might be able to get away with it, again not going anywhere fast but it wont be unbearable.

    Either way i see you being WAY overloaded.
