Where to start? I need a truck!
I know it's a contentious issue, but I'm feeling overwhelmed with how to select a truck. I know I need at least a 3-series to haul a TC at around 5000lb (AF990 loaded/wet should be around 5000lb) ...

I probably should add that maximum power isn't the be all and end all for me, as long as I have *enough* power.
New truck or a used truck. Much depends on what year model trucks your looking at.
You don't need a 400 hp 900 ft lb diesel engine for just carrying around a 4k-6k truck camper. Now if your going to use the truck to pull your 15k-18k GN/5th wheel trailer then a diesel is needed.
Also don't rule out the new gen gas engines in the DRW trucks. Older trucks with Fords V10 or GM's 8.1 will easily do the job.
