So after some research on best years for 3/4 ton trucks I've found a 19 chevy 2500hd duramax and a 2016 f250 6.7 ps. Both are roughly the same price and milage. They are both in the sweet spots of good years. Any suggestions. Ty
Either of those trucks will tow twice as much, as easy as what you said you were planning, but don't let the RVet get to you. It's more about what you're doing with the truck overall, than 1 month trip, IMO.
A big ole diesel is attractive, but this still isn't the right time $ wise to buy a diesel, IMO, unless its really needed or money is of little concern.
The L5P Duramax with the original Alli is a great combo. It’s past the CP4 days which the 2016 (and current models) still uses.
Plus the 2016 Super Doody is still sitting on basically a 20 year old chassis design. Nice trucks but I’d get a L5P hands down over an earlier 6.7 Powerstroke.
Both are totally overkill for your use (not a bad thing).
Although I too am perplexed where your find a comparable diesel in your price range unless it has over 100k miles.
