Hey all. My lease on my 2014 ram 1500 is about up and I am looking for a truck to pull a toy hauler. The toy hauler I'm looking at is a coachman freedom express. hitch weight is 800 lbs, gvwr is 9500l...
Footprint wise, the F150 and F250 are not much different. What's under the skin that makes a F250 a better tow vehicle is what will also make it heavier. Towing mileage will be the same, but unloaded mileage will be better in the lighter truck. Price between the two is comparable, so why would choose a vehicle that is at its limits verses one that has plenty of reserve? How much will you really save in mileage between the F150 verses the F250 over the life of the truck?
