80’s??? I think that diesels have made some advancements in the last 30 years Smitty. The 360 gas burner in my 2015 2500 is a dog. I need something that can drag 12,000 around like it’s a dish rag.
Extend the bed and put a longer tool box in the rear end and wa law you now have your enclosed sleeper, HA! I've been thinking about an enclosed trailer as well, would work out great for me to haul and sleep in.
I had an 07 Chevy 2500 with the 6.0 your correct it was a dog for pulling. But they are a pretty solid motor, it was the only thing solid on it. But they get it done. I traded it in for a 12' 1500 crew hemi. Talk about night and day powerwise
Ok? HP? The 14 I had GM 1500 (RIP) would pull 4500 lbs in cruse control 70 mph? What does your camper weigh?
4500lbs might as well be a feather on a string. A toy hauler with side-by-side in is going to start close to 8000 pounds and go up from there.
Don't know about a feather, but another 3500 lbs would defiantly weigh in, just saying my GM 14 327 cubic inch small block would pull in cruse control. The Yota will not and has more hp and torque???????
Correct, the only time I complain about my truck is when I am towing. But that’s fairly often, so that’s the reason I’m going to change to a diesel. BTW, Thanks for your input on this subject Plumber.
Take extra shoes for the diesel pumps and throw them in the bed before you get back into the cab, HA!
Correct, mine is 10K and even on a level freeway bucking a wind, it’s difficult to hold 70, and then there’s all the 18 wheelers on the roads these days that are delivering all the s*** I need that keep getting in my way, lol.
I love diesel dude, I use it for hand lotion and cologne, gloves and shoes aren’t necessary.
