Ok guys after pulling it a few more times I have decided that I am getting a 3/4 ton. Couple questions now.
Looking at 2012 GMC 2500 crew cab 4x4 with 6.0 gas. Tell me how much different the 4.10 is compared to the 3.73. It seems there are a lot more used 3.73's out there. Also with the 2500, is the wheelbase longer than my Silverado 1500 crew? Longer bed? When climbing hills how will the different rear ends act?
Thanks guys I appreciate all your advice and knowledge.
I have had both and there is not much practical difference now that we have six speed transmissions. One might have to run in fourth with the 3.73 instead of fifth with the 4.10, but the tow will be very similar.
I have the 3.73 and wish I had the 4.10 since it would raise rpms a few hundred at towing speeds, which I think would reduce shifting down as much.
I like my truck (2011 GMC Sierra 2500HD 4WD CCSB 6.0/6sp/3.73), but I would change that if I ordered again.
