I had a 1500 4x4 chev and a 24 ft TT and the truck had 3.73 gears. it bucked all the time and the 350 engine just didn't like pulling that TT. I got a 2500HD chev truck and it was like night and day difference. I will never go back to a 1/2 ton truck for towing
In my opinion you are comparing apples to oranges. The last time Chevrolet had a 350 in them was 1997 or 1998. Half ton trucks today have become far better than they were over 20 years ago.
Very true. todays 1500, and 150 series trucks are much more capable than a socalled 3/4 ton of 20 years ago. Could be why so many are quick to put down a socalled 1/2 ton. they haven't been in one in more than 20 years.
