Which Truck would you tow with ?
I'm having a problem deciding which truck to use tolling my 5th wheel. I have a '94 Ford F250 4 x 4 7.3 Diesel 5 speed. (180 hp, Torque 338 ) I also have a '96 Chevy Crew Cab 3500 4 x 4 5.7 gas engine...

What I am really concerned about is if the 5.7 Gas will have enought power to do the job & handle the weight. The Chevy is a whole lot more comfortable on a trip. I don't see many 350's on here towing a 5th wheel.
You lost me? :h Your Chevy has 75 more HP and you're concerned it will have enough power? The Ford should really concern you then!
The Chevy is a 3500 and your concerned about it handling the weight? What about the F250? The gas 3500 should have a way higher payload than a F250 diesel.
The reason you don't see too many 350's is because modern powerhouse diesels have taken over the market. Long gone are the 150 to 225 HP diesels. Modern diesels have 2x's+ the HP of your old IDI non turbo diesel.
