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.
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...
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...
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...
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+...
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...
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.
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...
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.
