I never really thought of 3500 (1 ton) as an option. I always assumed that it would cost substantially more. I guess I have some homework to do.
I am glad to know that I was not missing anything, but it does seem quite odd that with a 2500, it is not even designed to haul a "normal" weight 5er.
The RV dealer, as well as the TV dealer, all seemed to eager to state that it would be the ideal TV.
Yes, it will pull the 5er, but it will be over the numbers, and I am not a big fan of that.
Here is another "loaded" question. Any thoughts on Ram vs F250 vs GMC/Chevy? Now that I am looking at 1 ton, I want to go back and start the review process all over again, looking at the big 3.
Any advice is welcomed. Thanks,
Do some research and make sure you're comfortable with the CP4 injection pump issues in the diesel GM and Ford. Not likely to be an issue but it was a factor that swayed me towards the Ram and Cummins. If you're comfortable with the CP4 issue you can't go wrong with any of the three - they're all towing beasts. Drive them all and pick your favorite.
