Umm actually I have pulled a trailer many times and it pulled very very well with no issues.

Boosted Diesel 3/4 ton > Boosted Gas 1/2 ton, especially for towing.

I haven't read the whole thread but I saw someone suggesting getting a programmer, the Superchip ones and some others will not void your warranty; and they do have significant power gains and some mileage.

The only problem is it could cause you some trouble long term, I have a new buddies with programers, propane injection, ect on their diesels. They have had numerous head gasket issues, tranny issues ect. It might just be a fluke but I would look into it, my buddy just had a headgasket done on a 2007 Ford Turbo Diesel and it was a $4500 bill because they basically had to removed the motor to do it.

Nice truck though, shit I bet it has plenty of power as it is, just get a coffee can muffler and be done with it. :)

Really???? My 04 3500 dually can pull a 44 foot camper trailer fairly easily. Just set cruise at 80 and relax. Mine is a 8.1 V8 and takes regular gas. Thing will pull anything. I doubt the 6.6 liter diesel version will pull any better.

I know the 8.1 chevy can pull alot. I have pulled with one before. But it was a two sled trailer. I have pulled with a 6.0 chevy. It had problems pulling a empty horse trailer. Oh and when we went to michigan we pulled a enclosed snowmobile trailer with the 8.1. Only problem on long trips we had to fill up a lot sooner then the diesels.

Mine has a box in box in back with a bigger gas tank as well. It can go about 800 miles if both tanks are filled. I will probably take it off though as it is just a work truck for me and I don't have any plans on driving it regularly.

My buddy has a 6.0 gmc with a 6 inch lift and 22's thats supercharged. That thing will pull anything like nothing was behind it! The truck also runs low 14's in the 1/4 mile. The truck pulls his full enclosed race car trailer with the car, tools, etc with out any problems!

Nice truck, and the diesel was a good choice

[slow2.0]

Only if the mechanic looking at it gives enough of a shit to even look for that, it's not like it's coming out of their pocket...

I have a feeling that they would so they could get out of any warrenty work to save some money seeing how GM doesnt have any. haha

I had a 6.0 supercharged with almost 500hp and over 500 tq. that thing went high 13's and pulled a full steel car trailer with cars on it with no problem and never went out of overdrive. I would say don't say a supercharged gas is less then a diesel unless you have driven one with a load on it.

Love the new truck and keep us posted on the mods you do to it!
