Whether you’re a fleet manager for a construction firm or a weekend warrior looking to transport toys to the lake every weekend, one of the major advantages of pickup trucks is the ability to tow big loads with ease. Not all trucks are created equal, though, and some are rated for a bigger, heftier trailer than others. Your regular half-tons will tow anywhere from 11,000 to 14,000 pounds, while their heavy-duty counterparts can carry over 36,000 pounds.
