Picked up my 7,000 lb, 30ft travel trailer Friday. Pulled it about 150 miles over the weekend. I was VERY pleased with the way my Titan pulled the trailer. Gas mileage went down from 15 to 9 with the trailer. That's still not that bad. I especially liked the short turning radius, that helped immensely in many tight areas. It was 97 degress, and the engine and tranny temp gauges didn't even budge from their previous settings even though we were on quite hilly roads. BTW, I changed to Mobil 1 20w-50 for the engine and Mobil 1 gear lube for the rear end the day before I picked up the trailer. It had plenty of torque, and I had no problem maintaining whatever speed I wanted, even though I had to keep it below 55 because of high winds..
Overall, very impressed with it's towing ability...
