^^^I find it shocking you towed that monster around here with a 1500. Even that 2500 gasser. You should be rockin a Dmax/Allison.
Anything will actually tow a boat down the road. Controlling and stopping is where the real issues start. I recently had to do my rear brakes. It was the first time in at least 10yrs. I’m not exactly sure. I have a truck camper and the boat on there often so that’s where I’m figuring the higher wear on the rears is coming from. My fronts are still 40% and have been so for several years now. It’s one of the first things I had my mechanic check when I found him. I’ve had him check several times in the last few years and it’s always the same thing. We were watching both and finally had to do the rears but, that was at least a decade of towing.
In the OPs situation, a 1500 with tow package would be fine. I don’t think I’d do it with a Canyon. They’re neat little trucks but, I still wouldn’t put a boat twice it’s size behind it. That’s just me though.
You'll get your chance, smart guy.
