Hello Don-
I have driven/towed the Armada and found it capable to pull most
loads under 7000lbs that we had to pull. It will tow up to 9500lbs i
think. The transmission worked very well and the power plant was
unfazed and the brakes were far superior to my present tow vehicle. I
liked the seats as well as the ride. The only draw back to the Armada
IMHO is that my sails would not fit inside with the battens in the
pockets of the main, the trade $ cost to this great truck from my
1999 C2500 [my presnt loyal great truck] . The mileage was about the
same with the edge towards the Nissan with that transmission. So if
you're not moving mainsails inside the cabin its great truck.
