Need advice for good towing vehicle for enclosed trailer
Ok... my 92 f150 is struggling pulling my fully equipped 16ft enclosed trailer. LOL. I originally bought it without knowing i was going to be in this industry. I need to find something else to replace it. Considering bumping up to a 2008 or newer superduty. f-350 maybe.
Thoughts?

3/4 gas will pull it fine. I would go diesel for the long haul. It kind of comes down to how much cash you wanna drop... You can get a fully loaded 3/4 ton cummins for 45k. That's not to bad.

I have two diesels, love them other than the cost of fuel. lol Find a good clean truck at the right price, I would go with either one.

why do you say that? people around here dont use them. do you think a diesel is really necessary for a mowing route with a 16' enclosed vnose trailer? im looking at getting a 2500 silverado. its rated for 10,000 standard towing and 15,000 for max towing
