Bought a REAL tow vehicle

[Ryan1969Chevelle]

Wow you are completely 100% set up now!!!

What year is your new truck? Looks like a 2000-2005.

The 8.1 and Allison is the best option for sure, and the 2500 HD only comes with 4.10 gears.

Differences:
Mine, Yours
6.5’ Short bed, 8’ Long bed
4X4, 2WD
6.0, 8.1
4L80E, Allison 5? Speed
3.73, 4.10
G80, G80?
2000, 2001?

Great truck, great choice!!!

I’m excited to see how it works for you!!!

I think if I was to buy a truck knowing what I know now I would buy one right in between these two trucks, 4.10 gears for sure, HD for sure, (I’m not sure about the 8.1/Allison as I drive mine semi frequently)

I’m not convinced that one drivetrain is better or worse for mileage as either is terrible, maybe one is less terrible than the other?

I would like my truck to be able to tow my trailer and Cutlass steady at 110kph in OD, in tow haul mode, without shifting at the smallest hill, 4.10’s would sure help.

Very cool!!!
