We Didn't Hold Back on This 1-Ton 552 HP Truck Build

What happens here

The truck is equipped with a robust towing setup. It features a 30,000 lbs rated gooseneck hitch head for substantial loads. Additionally, a Pennington 20,000 lbs rated traditional hitch is installed, which is significantly 'overbuilt' for the accompanying 14,000 lbs dump trailer, ensuring maximum safety and durability. The truck also boasts a practical 3-way tailgate, enhancing its functionality for various hauling needs.

Goal: Detail the truck's heavy-duty towing capacity and specialized hitch components.

What they say

Hide

ruining your brand new trailer. And then back here, we didn't stop there. We got a 30,000-lb hitch, so that thing can really hold up any kind of weight you guys throw onto it. And then to connect the trailer here, we got this Pennington flagship hitch right here. This is a 20,000-lb rated hitch. Again, the trailer is only 14, but this is 20,000 lb. We want to overkill everything so that you can work this truck for a very, very long time. Three-way tailgate right here. >> [snorts] >> Then on the interior, we got nice High Country interior. Super clean, fully loaded truck in here. I mean, this thing's ready to work, play, whatever you want to use it for. Side matched the side steps, but we left the top black cuz once you step on that one time, we don't want you to chip the new paint, so little stuff like that. What about the tuner in it? It has a 95-horsepower Banks tuner in it as well. And an AFE cold air intake. So, that tuner adds an extra 95 horsepower, but it has not been deleted,
