 | Nah, I use my Ford to tow the bigger horse trailer  But you'd be surprised what I have put in the back of that Amigo all at once. For example, drove to Oregon once (6 hour drive) with the following in the Amigo (no trailer): 1 Full size couch 4 dining room chairs 2 end tables 1 Entertainment Center 1 32" Television 1 Suitcase 1 Backpack 1 Glass topped dining room table

 | If you had just worn the backpack, you would have saved a lot of room in the back. Last edited by crabtruck; 10-19-2007 at 02:05 AM. |

| Dodge Ram 2500 V-10.... It hauls anything that i want and was way cheaper than a Cummings. Plus it had more torque than a Cummings for that year and i think it rides smoother than the others. I mostly haul with mine, I have a Jeep that i Rock Krawl with and a Dirt track Race car, its also big enough that if the wife and kids want to go we don't have to take another car. Plus the 4 Wheel drive doesn't hurt in the Midwest winters when you need to get somewhere. |

| I have driven a Ford 250, and a Ram 2500, neateher of them can not hold a stick to my GMC 2500, the ride is a lot smother, along with being able to put a load on and not feel as though the truck is oing to split in two. I also plow around 20 driveways in the winter, and the truck plows snow like nothing I have seen before. But the biggedt driving factor was I was able to buy it out right with cash instead of having to take a loan out. So I will drive anything if the price is right, but might think twice from now on.

| I love the looks of my silverado, rides smooth and has alot of power in the 350 vortec, but along with that power comes the horrible gas milage. im gettin around 12 mpg city, and since i live 5 miles out of town i make numerous trips home during the day i go through alot of gas. given the situation ive been takin my dad's honda accord lately, ive been gettin around 40-42 in the city which is pretty much amazing, it costs me bout 30 to fill up and it goes further then a tank in my truck! all in all i love my truck and the little economy car!

| mines got 93k on it, it used to be an old catering truck, but was rarely used because it had a transmission problem, so they thought. my dad found out it had bad u joints and he fixed it. also, it only got the catlic converter replaced, along with the u joints and oil. tire are the same as when we bought it and it hasnt broke down except once. we just added a couple courts of oil and we were back on the road.
