Best truck for Northern Lite 10-2
My wife and I just ordered a 2020 Northern Lite 10-2 LE and are now shopping for a truck. I hoping to get some advice on which would be the best truck for our camper. We're planning a 1 year trip...

And you'll have the perpetual cherry pickers of select situations to "prove " their point. Aka the "Buzzcuts $16k repair..." Story.
The background is "Buzzcut" had or still has one of the least relaible pile of _____ Diesel engines made. I wouldn't buy one of them either. But I would buy any of the current big 3 truck diesels and run it with confidence.
But you know.....whatever makes for a good story.
Just like the "gas will haul it fine". Of course it will and it does even better when you're going 55mph half the time and poking around even slower most of the rest of the time.
Here, the question is, do you want 6 mpg, down shifted 3 gears screaming at 4000+ rpms all day to maintain 65 mph across the majority of the country? (You know, the part where every wheat field looks like the next one for 1000 miles)
Or are you going to putz down county roads the whole way stopping at every "Farmer John took a dump here in 1888" roadside pullout sign?
I blow through those areas at 75-80mph on the freeway so I can get to the next Real, actually interesting attraction.
