Drove it today, wife didn't care for it like I thought. She wants to wait and get a newer version in a year or so. Bad memory's of the 01 with injector issues and large bill to fix (second set) plague her mind. She wants to stick with gas like we have been doing for the last few years, so I may pass unless she changes her mind some. The dealer would not budge on price so I walked away... Funny thing is they have been blowing up my cell phone the last,hour.....I will keep y'all posted.
Women also tend to be very rational people as well. Trust your wife on this one. Happy wife, happy home. My wife LOVES our gas truck. She picked it out, I said I wanted a crew cab dually, she pointed at this one and said "buy this one." And that is what I did.
There is absolutely nothing wrong with staying with a Gas truck. There does come a point where the weight of the trailer demands a diesel but that is a very substantial weight. Most modern gassers can handle a 9-15k (depends on ratings now) trailer with ease.
I test drove a new Duramax yesterday. I was impressed by the motor. Very impressed. But the Gas Dually meets my needs, and no $1300 payment every month.
Good luck no matter what you decide.
Thanks!
