Choosing the Right Setup for Your Load

Pulling a boat to Newport Harbor or a travel trailer to the desert? The Hurricane Standard-Output or HEMI V8 gives you the most capacity at the hitch. For bed loads like pavers, lumber, or mulch, the Pentastar V6 offers the most payload. Keep in mind that maximum towing and maximum payload are separate ratings, so you cannot reach both at once. Cab style, bed length, and axle ratio will all shape your final numbers.
