Tow Truck ?
If you are considering buying a truck that you will use primarily to tow things, such as other vehicles, boats, trailers, etc. then you need to make some smart decisions when you are looking for the right option. You should make sure that if you are buying a new vehicle that the towing package is standard or at least factory installed. Frequent towing with a truck can void or change parts of the warranty. If the tow truck is set up at the factory, then the warranty should actually still cover things like transmission or brake problems that you might experience.If you want a tow truck, there are many different types of trucks to consider. If you plan to do heavy hauling, you probably should buy a very heavy duty truck. Smaller tow truck options are out there and you can actually do towing with a standard pickup truck if you have the right options installed. You can get a tow truck with pre-installed hitch, a complete towing package and many other types of options.A professional tow truck driver will know what they need in a truck. They can also help you determine what you need if you are buying a truck that will be used to tow things. This is a good way to get more information than you might from your dealer. Also, your mechanic will be a good person to ask about whether the factory installed tow options on the truck are going to be strong enough and hold up to the strain of the extra stress on the vehicle.One other thing to look for if you are buying a new tow truck is the ability to change your vehicle into towing mode. This will benefit you if you have an automatic transmission as it enables the transmission to stay in lower gears longer to make the trip easier on the engine and transmission.Don’t buy a tow truck until you know the facts about the right things to buy. Getting the information is not difficult and you would be better to ask a few questions than to replace a transmission after a month of owning your new truck.
