I want both towing ability and power, which is why I am thinking Diesel. I get that the 3/4 will tow better overall, which is why I am looking at them. Point being, going down in performance to get better towing ability is not something I am willing to entertain at this point. I towed 6 times last year with my Tundra and new TT. It isn't that terrible to begin with. Just right on the edge. Taking a hit in performance when I drive it empty most of the time anyways, just doesn't make sense.
Yes I want my cake and eat it too. @ $52-60K you shouldn't have to compromise when purchasing a vehicle.
Performance? Empty? Not sure the post. Maybe I'm confused. But my 6.7 will flat out launch off the line when I floor it. Nothing can move an 8000 lb. truck like today's diesels.
That was in response to people saying to stick with the gasser HD truck. To me, performance isn't there...which doesn't make sense. They all have gas engines with higher output than they are using for a truck that weighs as much as a freight train.
