I decided we need a crew cab, I went a couple years with an extended cab and my kids need the crew cab for their growing bodies.
I have an 04' Chevy 2500HD LT with 4.10 rear and 6.0 motor with 94k miles, tires are getting thin and I am about to hit the 100k tuneup period.
The new contender is a 2009 F250 XLT crew with 60k miles new tires, with a V-10 and unknown rear.
When I towed with my Chevy I was at 14900# for total TT and Truck weight and my GCWR max is 16000# so we only have 1100# for passengers.
The TT I have is a Heartland Trail Runner 30usbh that weighs 8580# without full water.
Does this look like a good matchup? I assume I will have to get the GCWR off the door tag in the truck to get a better idea.
According to THIS, the GCWR is 21,000#, tow rating 12,500#, and the only rear axle available was 4.10. The 4.30s were only available in an F350 SRW.
I ordered mine and it was available in a 3.73 in 4x2 also.
