New member,New truck, proly old questions
 

I just got my '07 Silverado Crew Cab 4.8L V8 in November. So far I'm very happy with the truck, but have some questions. I get decent gas milage now, but is there anything I could do to get better? I have a pop up camper, about 3000lbs., could I use the bumper to pull this trailer? Thanks for any help ya'll can give me.

Thanks,

Keith

I wouldn't pull the camper with the bumper. You would probably end up ripping it off. But to increase your gas mileage I would suggest a cold air intake for starters, then maybe headers. Thats funny though you are only a hop skip and a jump from where I am (Bryan/College Station, TX).

i agree get a class 3 hitch under the bumper. i love mine and it has saved my bumber aboutfour times for backing into something.some even come with amount connected tothe hitch receiverthat with house your trailer wiring connections.
