[QUOTE="kevinatfms, post: 16506292, member: 39344"] I know its not a big diesel but my Colorado Duramax is hands down better to tow with than the 3.6L V6. I drove both and a friend has a Canyon work truck with the V6 in it and while it will tow the trailer/car it just hangs the RPMs up in the 4500-5000 range for way longer than i feel comfortable with. While my truck can handle the 5000ish lbs quite easily at 2000-2300ish rpm. Mileage is worlds better also as i average around 20-22mpg with 5000lbs loaded on a flat grade while the V6 got between 12-14mpg on the same drive. Maintenance costs are quite a bit higher though as i spend around double per regular service visit(i still take my DD to a dealer) than a V6 version. [/QUOTE]
