Bad comparison. The F-150 Lightning, which is lowered, will tow 5,000
lbs. Plenty of aftermarket lowered trucks with much more radical drops
than the R/T manage to tow at or close to their original rated
capacity, without much additional work, but DC can't manage to do the
same with the much milder R/T? If that's the case, then it doesn't
reflect well on DC. I bought my R/T to be a practical truck, that just
happens to accelerate and handle well. My bed has a Line-X liner, and
it's regularly used to haul. I bought the truck to tow, and I expect DC
to fix it.
