you will have one of the highest payload 3500's ram sells. it weighs less than the cummins. I have not heard anything bad about that motor. But motors that big can eat fuel.
the maintenance will also be cheaper.
Thanks Towpro....the GVW on this truck is 13,300 lbs. and I believe the payload is around 5,970 lbs. because it's a crew cab.
I guess that I'm mostly concerned with having enough power, I live in MI but will be traveling out West occasionally and planning a 6 week tour of AK next year w/o towing anything.
I live in Michigan as well...
Expect the engine to be a gas guzzler and there have been some issues with that engine eating internal parts. Does it have an extended transferrable powertrain warranty?
