Hey All,
I'm wondering who tows with a 2500 or 3500 GMC or Chevy 6.0 gasser and how heavy do you pull? I'm considering a new GM HD and can't do a diesel because my typical daily usage demands a lot of short distance driving (many trips under 5 miles).
Considering an upgrade to a larger travel trailer and need to get a HD truck 1st!
Thanks!
x4. that shouldn't keep you from going with the diesel. Our 2015 gets lots of 2 mile or more less trips between other longer trips and after almost 10,000 miles NEVER has it caused any issues with the regeneration process.
My 2004 duramax was my daily driver for a 5 mile trip to work for almost 8 years, no issues whatever. Granted, it was before DEF, but did have EGR etc.
Now the gasser does have the advantage of a higher cargo capacity by around 600-800lbs if that has an influence.
But I don't know anyone with the recent 6.0 and newer automatic, so towing wise I'm no help
