RE: towing advise please
I still say a 250 is likely the best all around size truck for those who want more than casual usage. My diesel just add less cares for towing and provides a steady run for my trailer loads and long hauls. the trans has few shifts due to hills and even mountains. Piece of mind if you are a serious hauler and do so often is worth the price.

RE: towing advise please
I REALLY YTHIGoing from a 1/2T to a 350 is a really expensive step as all your costs from fuel to brakes are much more. We have for years pulled our Jayco with our 250 diesel and it has never felt any different then driving our normal ride around town auto. We normally drive cross country and south every year in all weather and terrain.
That's one of those funny things, unless you get the big diesel, a 3/4 or 1 ton isn't much different in price from a similarly outfitted half ton.
I really think the ride in our 250 is car like especially with the diesel. This is our 2nd one and I can attest to driving the USA every year for no less than 15 years. I ride of our truck is great. Another point I can park i9n spots cars park unlike a dually.
