So Ive been shopping around for a tow rig the last couple weeks even thou realstically I wont be getting one till next year. Ive been considering a 04-08 dodge 1500 4x4 with the 5.7 since I will be DD'ing the truck.
It would be nice to have a diesel but I cant really justify getting one since ill be driving it every day. It seems like the majorety of people on the board are usig 1 ton diesel trucks for thier tow rigs thou.
The dodge 1500 has a 10000# towing capacity and ill be using it to tow my 80 toyota so im guessing it will weigh in around 4-5 thousand including the trailer.
Am I in the wrong for wanting to use a 1/2 ton for a tow rig?
Anyone use a 1/2 ton to tow? Any input is apreciated.
Thanks, Chris
