What Upgrades needed for a 3/4 ton pickup
I want to thank everyone who responded to my other post "will a 3/4 do". It was very informative. I am making a new post because I thought I could get more answers than just asking on my other post...

Grit,
The 2014+ is that generally speaking, a lot of the gas motors did get significant HP/torque/mpg gains. More so in the under 8400 gvwr relm than 25/35 series. Hence recommendation. If as you point out, the last improvement was 2010 for the 6L gas, Go back that far. At that point in time, finding a rig in decent shape is a crapshoot at best
Even the 3.73 to 4.10 std option is not a big deal. The 6sp/3.73 is better than a 4Lxx with a 4.88 ratio from a get up and go stand point!
