[QUOTE="AustinSN, post: 16406279, member: 159453"] My position isn't much different than yours. I wanted a 3/4 or 1 ton for the added stability, but couldn't justify getting the diesel because I didn't think this truck would run without a trailer on it. The added cost of the diesel fuel, maintenance, and the price of the truck (at least $13k additional) pushed me to a 2012 6.2. By some odd twist of fate it's my DD and it drives me insane that it's so gutless, somehow rides worse than my old 7.3s, gets 11 empty, and probably 7 or so with the trailer. My trailer is a 24' enclosed ATC, maybe 7k lbs max with a car in it. Given your situation where you have a company car, a gasser 3/4 or 1 ton would probably work out a bit better. I'm currently trying to decide if I should buy a car for my (upcoming) commute, or sell the truck and have Nick find me a slightly used King Ranch F150 with the 3.5 and 10 spd for dual duty. [/QUOTE]
