Id rather have overkill than underkill :) Question, Ive always liked Ford, are they the truck of choice with most for pulling 5th wheels ?? And it looks like all the F250's have diesels, don't they use the V10 anymore ??
Isnt the diesel noisy going down the road ?? That constant roar...
Then by all means go out and get a class 8 semi-tractor and get lots of overkill. ;)
Our last truck was a diesel F250 (1992 vintage) and wasn't particularly noisy.
Our current truck is a V10 F250. Also not particularly noisy, with the exception of climbing a grade. Gas engines need lots of RPM to put out max HP and that can be a bit noisy. We aren't constantly climbing grades so not really an issue.
Both work fine but we are pulling a bigger trailer than a little 25'.
It won't hurt to bump up to a 3/4 ton but for a 25' trailer, you don't need it.
Ford/GM/Dodge...them's fighting words.
