2017 Gold Hitch Award—Heavy Duty Diesel Towing
The Ike Gauntlet extreme towing test is a major deciding factor for the award. The toughest towing test in the world. It's an 8-mile run up and down a 7% grade to a maximum elevation of 11,158 feet above sea level. We load the trucks near their maximum capacities. If a truck can handle and succeed at the world’s toughest towing test, it deserves the title Gold Hitch Award and the title of the best towing truck. —TLFtruck
