It was just too big and long for me, crew cab with an 8' bed
It was also black and impossible to wash
I sold my boat and thought my towing days were over
I retire next month and might be towing more now that I will have free time
I'm looking at trading in my 1500 and leasing a short bed crew cab cummins
I seem to trade in my vehicles and lose money on them every few years so it might make sense to just lease them.
I'm comfortable with the payment and I won't be upside down every time like now
You'll not be happy staying with the 1/2 ton if you tow very much. most of my tows with the old truck were less than 200 miles one way and were white knucle tows if it was very windy (it never blows in the So Cal desert does it?). Towing clear to Idaho with a 1/2 ton would not be a very enjoyable trip IMHO. I've towed the 5er with my Duramax up and down the coast, to New Mexico and AZ and it's always been a very pleasant experience; personally I'll never go back to a tag trailer again.
