    Where can you rent a full size diesel truck?

    I can deal with not having navigation. I'm mostly interested to see how the f-250 with the leafs in the rear compares to the coil sprung suspension of the ram 2500. I figured both diesels engines will be relatively similar.

    Where can you rent a full size diesel truck?

    did you get the insurance? Normally when I rent a car I decline it but I'm wondering if it would be worth it if I'm considering taking it camping.

    Where can you rent a full size diesel truck?

    So I'm in the market for a truck and I'm wondering if it's possible to rent a 3/4 ton diesel truck? I'd love to rent a diesel ram 2500 and ford f-250 6.7 to compare them. Ideally, both trucks would be 4x4. Not planning to do anything crazy with them but would love to drive both of them over...

    The screen you have installed, how difficult was that to do? Seems like a great aftermarket modification.

    1/2 Ton vs 3/4 Ton for Family Adventures?

    What was the ride quality like on your 950 f250 power stroke? I'm never driven a truck with front leafs so I'm wondering if I'm going to absolutely hate it. I could get a low miles 99-2002 f-250 7.3L for roughly 20k vs a 6.7 powerstroke would probably run me 40-55k depending on year and trim...

    1/2 Ton vs 3/4 Ton for Family Adventures?

    Right now I'm just driving a subaru outback, the colorado I had was on a lease that ended last year. I'm well aware whether it be a 1/2 or 3/4 ton that it's tough to find a truck that does everything great. I'm also thinking that buying something used might be an opportunity to get something...

    1/2 Ton vs 3/4 Ton for Family Adventures?

    Part of the reason I like the ram 2500 is that it uses coil springs in the rear unlike the f-250 which uses leafs.

    1/2 Ton vs 3/4 Ton for Family Adventures?

    I've thought about trying to find a relatively low miles 7.3 powerstroke and just driving that but I'm afraid that the leaf sprung suspension will be too uncomfortable for the family, especially if we're running a lighter load. I know some people swap the axles on there so they can run the 05+...

    1/2 Ton vs 3/4 Ton for Family Adventures?

    When you add the HDPP to the f-150 with the 3.5L on the lariat trim you start to get pretty close to the f-250 cost.

    1/2 Ton vs 3/4 Ton for Family Adventures?

    I live in California so most of my travel is likely to be on the west coast. Maybe some trips to baja at some point and exploring NV/CO/UT. I've thought about a big SUV but I'm not sure any of the newer ones are my cup of tea. The 4x4 sprinter's are cool but not sure how likely we'd use it to...

    1/2 Ton vs 3/4 Ton for Family Adventures?

    Usually when I'm packing for ski adventures, I pack all the corresponding gear. By having a decent size bed, I don't necessarily have to toss a ton of gear on top of the skis or the skis on top of the gear. Plus if I ever roll solo and want to sleep in the back with a cap, it's an option.

    1/2 Ton vs 3/4 Ton for Family Adventures?

    It will primarily be used on the weekends. We have a subaru outback that we use for most of our daily driving. I'd want the 6'5 box if I went 1/2 ton. I like being able to throw my skis in the bed of the truck without needing to add a roof top box. I'm less concerned about departure angle...

    1/2 Ton vs 3/4 Ton for Family Adventures?

    Does anyone know of places where you can rent a 3/4 diesel truck? I figured it would be fun to drive one for a weekend even if it wasn't all loaded down. Same goes for the 1/2 ton trucks I'm looking at.
