Mines not new, a 95 with a 5 speed. The pumps hopped up 4" quiet exhaust, 3.55 gear, and tall 285 75 16. I wsa leary at first about towing with a stick but would never buy a automatic to tow with again. I tow a heavy 32ft tri axle. 13 mpg at 65mph. It goes up any hill. You guys are right a 2wd gets stuck in spit. But I don't tow in the snow. Doug
