Re: [A/S] Tow Vehicle, Need some quick advise!

That would have had a GCVW of around 12-15,000 lbs, and a GVW of 10,000. The
highest GCVW of that era for that rig would be 17,500. The main thing about
the rig you are looking at is the rear end ratio- 4.10 would give the highest
rating. It will probably weigh close to 10K, leaving a small tow rating close
to a vintage Airstream. That said- the ratings for that era were way more
conservative than modern ones.

That would be a nice rig- I would buy it.
