What to get - 6/27/2008 4:45:06 PM    randys66gt   Posts: 9 Joined: 6/27/2008 Status: offline OK, I know the smartest guys are in this forum so I need your help. I have a 5th wheel RV that weighs 21K and my last truck was a 02 F250 diesel. Had to get rid of that so I now need another truck. What do I get?? Chevy, Dodge or another F-Series? Gas or Diesel? I got almost 18 mpg on the Ford so I need to know on the others. What about the V-10???? Please let me know what you guys think. Thank you! Post #: 1

RE: What to get - 6/27/2008 8:11:34 PM    randys66gt   Posts: 9 Joined: 6/27/2008 Status: offline Thanks for your help. OK, let''s think about getting a used truck. I really don''t think the imports will pull that heavy of a 5th wheel. I love the way they look but I really need something to pull and stop. I travel up and down the California grapevine which is nuts. I was thinking a 93-2004 Chevy, 95-2003 Dodge, or 93-2003 Ford. Also been thinking about the V-10 but I don''t know anything about it. All your help would be appreciated. Thanks (in reply to rxsteven) Post #: 3

We have a 2006 GMC with the duramax and it will pull up to 24000 lbs of dead weight. I''d go with that if I was you (in reply to randys66gt) Post #: 6
