Hi All.
Thank you for all the response and suggestions. Very much appreciated.
I already have a high mpg car, which is why the truck only has 56k miles for a 7 year old truck.
One of the kids will be taking the high mpg car, so the truck is going to become even more of a daily driver. Also, I’m sadly just not that thrilled with the reliability of the Ram, and Dodge corporate’s complete lack of interest in making good on all the issues the truck has had.
It stinks as it will cost me $ to switch gears to a 1/2 ton, so if I do, I want to make sure I don’t go from the fryingpan into the fire.
It sounds like i need to hunt for a HD Payload f-150.....and after first glance, they are pretty hard to find. We have 3 more months before camping season starts, so I have some time to find the right truck.
