I did a survey of "Independent" RV/HotShot light trucks in 2016 traveling from SoCal to Elkhart, IN. It was EZ-PZ as mentioned pen and paper. Example below. The result was RAM #1 by far, Ford and GM were close until we got into Elkhart area and there were many 7.3 older Fords doing local hauls between suppliers.[qoute]
If I were to include the Hot shots, Ram would be far ahead already on my survey. I would say 75% of the hot shots I’ve seen are Ram. But the Ford 6.7 so far is winning on the recreational survey so far (just by a hair). My next leg of the trip will be on I-75 (North and South), so I should pick up more good data.
I’ve also changed my criteria to include ‘large’ tag along trailers (campers only) instead of only 5th wheels. To my surprise, I’m seeing more and more tag along trailers behind the 3/4 ton trucks these days.
