2021 Bullet 32' bunkhouse in Central Oregon. The 3.5L handles 60MPH up the Cascade passes like it's nothing. And with 9 MPG, you get to be familiar with a lot of different gas stations. :)

Yep.. not one regular cab in this thread much less a short bed lol! Now that I got mine ordered I'm curious how my XL RC short bed stacks up as far as capability TO tow with the 5.0 and 3.73 gears..

2023 PB 501a 4x4 short bed 7.2KW. PL=1658lbs.
Not a very inspiring pic but needed a nice, uniform place to confirm hitch height install was where I wanted it. This was on the way out on our first trip and was the first chance to check it in a "loaded to go" condition.

when loaded the trailer weighs in at ~ 5,000 lbs and has the aerodynamics of sheets of plywood.

According to the 2024 Towing Guide, the max towing capacity for a 122" wheelbase 4x4 is 9400lbs, whereas a supercrew truck with a similar engine/gear ratio is 12,900lbs max. The maximum combined weight ratings are also about 4000lbs larger, even though the truck itself is heavier.

The extra 2-3 feet of truck length really help with keeping the front wheels on the pavement, all else being equal.
