So - older (less expensive) truck dedicated as tow vehicle, or newer (more expensive) truck replacing the Jeep as my DD? I drive about 20-25k a year, normal commuting, moderate to warm climate (Alabama)
How many of you drive a 3/4 ton or larger truck as your daily driver?
We went from a 1999 TJ to a 2014 Ram 3500 DRW. Much larger vehicle that can't go everywhere the Jeep did. I wouldn't want to hang it from a winch-line going up a waterfall. It will tow far more than the Jeep, holds a lot more inside, and we have a 2014 Polaris RZR800EPS for going off-road.
I drive the Ram every day, including through a narrow security gate a couple of times a day. It's not as nimble as the Jeep, but it tows our home (a 2016 Grand Design Momentum 385TH) and works great for us.
