It's obvious that these gasser owners don't know what long hard pulls really are. Most probably live east of the Rockies and have never been on a real mtn. Not to many back there. On paper the hp thing looks good but the heavy rotating mass of the diesel will keep it going when the gasser is gasping. I pass them all the time on the 6%+ pulls doing 35/40 and struggling to keep that. OR they pull small light weight trailers or both. I know what works in the real world. Ya'll have a good one. I don't have anything against gassers or any of you guys. I enjoyed it a lot. But you couldn't tow my trailer any place I go. I agree with thunderbolt. He's a good friend if mine and I know where we tow. I pass Chevys with the big 8.1 with half the trailer. And I know they're trying to pass me, the look on their Faces. So say what you want about diesels. I barley stared putting money In my truck after 200k. Till then it was tires, oil, and filters. My family had the V10, okay puller, but nowhere near a diesel, sorry just not going to happen. Excuse the grammar, on my phone.Re: WW RepairsI welded my own wall supports and gusseted the front tounge and put more support. probably added another half ton, but the thing is now built like a tank. if anyone wants pics feel free to ask.
