I think a 16K gross GVW fiver is solidly in diesel territory.
If you are buying the truck new why start with a TV that is marginally capable?
Being in FL does make gasser more acceptable. However do you want a combo that only performs adequately in FL and is marginal once it hits an incline.
The new hemi 6.4 is the reigning king of the hill in gas motors, however it has its limits.I believe the 16K GVW of the 5'er is above a gassers limits and puts your combo in diesel territory.
