5th Gear was a useless when towing and I was constantly in high revs in 4th to keep up with highway traffic.
As a result, mileage sucked more than normal when towing.

Truck capacity wasn't an issue as it had the proper tow package from the factory.

Just the combination of 4.7 and a 5 speed just didn't work imo...
I believe the 2008 1500 has a 6 speed manual, not a 5 speed.
