Just made the first tow in the '09 this weekend. She tows great!

I can only imagine what a magnaflo muffler would sound like. It drones with the stock sport muffler as it is! The only down side I've found is that you can't feel the bumps in the road.:D In my '07 2500 I could feel a bump and slow down. Not in this thing! I almost bounced my rig off the trailer LOL

31ft Bunkhouse 6700# dry as loaded apx 7500#. Airlift 1000 bags installed at 30lbs. Only a 1/2" wheel well drop once loaded down. Rides better than my 06 did towing it. Can't wait to see how it handles on a longer trip with more hills.

That's a load! My rig only weighs 3400 lbs.
With the 3:92's it tows pretty good. Not near the torque as my cummins but, gets the job done.
Sounds better too when it down shifts.:rck:

06 Hornstar - do you have a weight distributing hitch? If so, you still needed air bags to level the truck out??

Yes I have a weight distribution hitch. I really didn't need them, but it made a world of difference in handling. Don't even know it is behind me once I get going. Truck sits on its rake still and my lights are where they should be.

Yeah that travel trailer has alot of hitch weight, A weight dist. hitch will take some of it out but bags were probably needed to make it stable!
