Oh for sure. But, the new 2500/3500HD plus trucks also have bigger brake packages. If you are not going up big mountains and down the other side then yeah a light duty truck will work. I put safety first. Not $. You are asking a light duty truck to do the job of a Heavier duty truck. I like most guys on here have towed with lighter trucks. I like piece of mind. IMHO...
