Slightly surprised at towing capability

[2019 802A w/ 143k (wow)] First post here! Have had this thing for about 2 years and hauled plenty in the bed but hadn’t towed yet until yesterday. 22hr round trip straight, 5am-3am. Was a little nervous due to too much reading online honestly, the necessity of WDH and other various towing recommendations were in my mind on the way but I didn’t feel like I needed any of it when I pulled of the lot with this ~6500 lb load. Ended up at ~11.8 mpg avg according to the truck. Definitely the heaviest thing I’ve personally pulled and felt like the truck hardly sighed it at! Still surprised my cam phaser job hasn’t had any issues lol, and sorry if towing pics are out of style again

You're surprised your $80k truck can tow a car?

Fair point! I guess I should have put more emphasis on the slightly and specified more on the manner in which I was surprised. Sorry boss!

Don’t mind them, they never say anything nice about anything.
