Go test drive a new 350/3500 crew cab dually they ride and drive as nice as the Avalanche or the Silverado.
I went and drove them and they are very far apart.
may be the gas engine are comfortable ???
but the diesel are rated 8500 lbs. versus 1300 lbs for an avalanche
their spring have to be 4 times stiffer.
Welcome to the RV forum. continue to ask as many questions as you need to find the info you want.
With what I have read of your posts I truely think you might wan to consider a toyhauler motorhome towing a small comfortable car.
Your strong need for a boulevard cruiser ride from your truck with a 4K lbs plus payload capacity is what is called a polar opposite.
I highly doubt you will ever find a capable truck to safely pull that large of a toyhauler that rides like what you seem to want.
hi
You are exactly right and we will have to make compromise.
We pretty much need a pick up 40 out of the 52 weekend per year.
We eliminated the MH as it will mean an additional vehicle, it cost more, and parking will be very expensive or a problem (I start my corvette every month and let it run for 20mn when I am not driving it). I check and I can have an outside storage for a fifth wheel for $50 a month while if we go MH I will want an indoor storage and go there at least once a month to let it run.
all that said we start to be ok with the idea of a 3500 HD that is more stiffer. Believe it or not all the family was happy with it.
only me and my brother were complaining about the stiffness may be due to our back problem.
