Do you plan on hauling that ATV in the bed of the new truck too? I think you're into 3/4 ton or HD payload F-150 range for that.

The 2014 GM 5.3L IMHO offers a far better balance of real world fuel economy and towing performance. I really like Ram's 8-spd trans, but the V6 will need every bit of that 6000rpm for towing a high walled RV.
