[QUOTE="TBItoy, post: 606989, member: 1384"] Opinions? Anyone have/had one? Used one? I sold my 07 2500HD Duramax, and have my trailer for sale also. I only used my Duramax for crawler hauling, and had only driven it a couple thousand miles the past 2-3 years. I don't have a regular need for a heavy-towing capable truck besides 4wheeling. I'm considering picking up one of the later model 26' U-Haul trucks. Most I'm looking at are 2000 GMC with a 7.4 Vortec/ Allison AT545 combo. Direct from Uhaul they are $6-7000 I've looked at several build threads, but they were all the old late 80s Internationals with 7.3 IDI diesels and 5spd manuals... Those can be had for $2-3000 but are usually in need of repairs. From what I've found, fuel mileage isn't that different from the old diesels vs newer gas BBC. 8-10mpg.... which is what my previous 6.0 Vortec 05 2500HD got pulling one crawler... Any reason this would be a terrible idea? [/QUOTE]
