Thanks, it was a good bit slower than the 3/4 ton, but it was way more stable and stopped better. You could gross 22 - 24,000 pounds and cruise at 80 mph and get 10mpg.

Only 10?!?!? Where’s all the amazing mileage and power of the mythical Cummins? I grossed over 35k several times towing this and got 9-12mpg depending on terrain...

Maybe we can agree that the Cummins isn’t the only truck out there. Thank goodness for options... so I don’t have to drive what you “think” is best...

At least it’s common knowledge that the Ford F-150 3.5 EB is the best half ton truck!! That’s just fact...

Unless you settle for an f150... how do you sleep at night going from that awsome dually to a yuppie truck?

You also claimed to be hauling round bales of hay that weighed 3500 pounds.
