Does nobody just slow down, run in 4th or 5th and keep the tach at about 2000-2250 for pulling with a gas motor?
Minimal if any shifting then.
Do the manual shift thing and keep the transmission in a gear that gets you to that 2k mark at highway speeds.
Of course I am speaking about a 5 or 6 speed here. No experience myself with the newer 8+ speed transmissions.
Reminds me of an old thread.
""Can I tow a big 5th wheel RV with a 6 point
something pickup?"
And the responses claiming a diesel as absolutely necessary.

That 6. something produces more snot than the original Super Duty.
If you think Super Duty means a "big" pickup, Google it.
Those engines were dragging 73,280# up and down our highways everyday for
years. And we're among the Big Dawgs of their time.
Yeah, I'm certain a 6. something can drag a measly 14ķ# trailer.
