That it not what I said. Check the PAYLOAD difference between the two versions before any suspension or towing options are purchased. It varies from 500-800 pounds in favor of the V-8. Obviously, they put more suspension under the V-8 models. A GVWR of 6,900 pounds is more than 25 pounds greater than one of 6300 pounds, unless my calculator is way off. Nothing against the Eco, in fact I had my checkbook out before I checked the yellow stickers. Sitting ten feet apart, both Supercab XL's.
