Default Re: New Truck Recommendation

Agree w/ everything SvilleKid had to say, including my Dodge having barely adequate leg room for a good sized adult in the back. I am 6'2" as well and would not be comfortable sitting behind myself in the truck.... That said, the women and children are fine back there, even 6'ers if you are not talking extended road trip.....

I have to say it, because for me, it was eye opening.... If you are going to do a lot of towing, a diesel is where it is at....regardless of the truck. Yes, a gasser can do the job most places....as can a 100 count humidor...

I went from 8MPG towing with my 2002 Dodge 1500 5.9 360 gasser to double that with my 2007 3500 5.9 CTD. Of course I live in a place that I drag my boat over mountain passes almost ever time we go out....sometimes multiple passes. I don't have to watch the temp gauge....I can use the air conditioning....

Of course if you are towing 15 miles each way on flat ground, obviously a gasser is good as gold...
