Actually If I could and I hope to soon I would rebuild a 64 to 67 chevy truck ,Now there was a great truck ,with out all the sensors and all the other B/S that they seem to deem that we all want ,yet no one can figure out what to do with them when the go ! Give me the old points and carb and a 350 engine and I'll still do better then the new trucks do and it's made of real steel ,not this recycled metal that rusts away before your eyes
Ever see a Ford & Chevy go down the road always nose up ; Rear bumper dragging the ground unloaded you look some time ; might want a Toyota Tundra(Stir The Pot oooooh yeeeeaaaaahh)
How about a good old straight 6... 300 ford or 292 chevy. Those were great power plants.
Test drove one a few months ago but the dealer wanted waaaaay too much for it so I told him to go pound salt. 5.7 iforce was very snappy on the highway I will say. Towing, not so sure about
I'm with you SOS Chevy all the way 5.3 vortec has done me well......I'm thinking about getting a 2500 series myself for towing the camper....I'm interested to hear how your test drive goes
I wont argue that................
Buddy of mine has One of those stuck, He tows a 30' camper all over the place. It's just not cut out to haul the weight of a 1 ton though.
I had a 300 with head work,4 barrel carb, headers and a Hi-perf cam in a Bronco in my youth. You couldn't stop that thing. Torque was unreal.
or a 3/4 ton even. I want the torque mostly. The cornfields can be absolutely brutal after a rain or snow melt. Don't need to be getting stuck with a Goose trailer on the back
I have the 2500 hd silverado 6.0 L gas engine 2006. It is HORRIBLE in cornfields, sinks like a rock, while my other buddies in there micro machine yotas and beaters fly around. Besides that though my truck has done anything I ask it too.
