Nice Setup, keeping bed space open, what kind of bed cover is that?

It's a Diamondback. Was rather pricy, but really liking it so far. Of course besides the pucker factor if i'm loading it from the ground :eek:and not from a raised loading area, it suuuuuure is steep even with the 12ft ramps lol. The main reason I got it, is so that I could tow my 27TT at the same time.

I thought about useing one of those for my Tacoma!

That'd be a lot of weight up high on a Taco. It's not too bad with my truck, I have Bilstein 5100's and pretty sure that helps significantly, only once have I hit a corner going a little fast, and definitely felt the unit start pulling the truck towards the chasm lol.

My next two vehicle will be a Ford SuperDuty. My last two have been Chevys and I have not been happy with either (the first was heavily used when I got it, so I gave it a pass)

I have been very happy with the FORD 6.7L Diesels, I got a 2011 F350 SRW in April 2010 and put 100K on it in 4 years only changed fuel and oil filters run like a dream avg. 18 mpg (over 100K miles) with 3:73 gearing. Went with the F450 as a dually because of the much heavier built rear axle / brakes / and 19.5" commercial tires & wheels, its geared at 4:30 ratio. It only get 15 mpg on its best day but it will drag my 20,000 lbs. camper up 7% grades faster than the posted speed limits. I've got 18K on this truck only had it 10 months but very very happy with my purchases and overall experience.

I have the 6.2 gas. Happy? Eh!
11mpg all day. Tranny shifts like crap and has no storage inside at all. Had it for 6 months and got 13k on it. Next one is a diesel for sure

I didn't mean to overlook your brand, my apologies. However most tow vehicles are HD Diesels cause this is MERICA by God! :D

I added more options vote away. LMAO

15 Ram mega cab 2500 with the hemi. Was going to go with the diesel but seeing first hand what some of my friends go thru with the diesel and price to repair I went gas. Just about to turn 3000 miles and am stoked with it maiden voyage last weekend hard side truck camper and a 14' enclosed trailer with the pioneer in it I averaged 12.1 mpg over 800 miles. And the trip unloaded pulled 17.3mpg. That's setting the cruise at 68mph.
