On the verge 1/2 ton vs 3/4 ton

[silver fox]

Why, you have to ask?? When you have obviously had to mod your 6 litre? Why?? Because you can!!! Not everyone wants the high step in height, the crappy mileage of a 3/4 ton truck...I've sold plenty of 6 litre 3/4 tons and have had plenty of requests for a 1/2 ton puller...actually, what they should do and MAY do is put the 6.2 in a 3/4 ton...that would be sweet!

Supposed to be a new chassis/frame for 2011 on 3/4 up..maybe they'll juice up the motor as well..yeah, nice to have 3400lbs cargo capacity versus 1600 on a harf ton..just depends on the needs..Autoblog — We Obsessively Cover The Auto Industry

I doubt a big gas job will cure that.......

the deisels have all that enviro BS on them and from people are saying mileage sucks, go gas job dsl has more maintainace i guess if you need the pulling power dsl is the choice

I can only comment on the duramax mileage and it is no different than the old trucks that didnt have the particulate filter. While your general maintenance is more expensive there is less on a diesel than a gas, they brake down less.
