Tow rigs - Anyone get a new tow rig?

[sleddingfarmer]

I traded in my 05 duramax - banks six gun w/PDA and bullydog programmers, Banks intercooler, intake, 4" exhaust, Built Goerend Allison tranny, Goerend triple disc converter, ATS Copilot, Buckstop bumper.

New rig is a 2006 Dodge Cummins, 6 Speed manual, 3500 SRW... 5" turbo back straight pipe, CAI w/amsoil air filter and prefilter, No silencer ring, Whelen PA system, haven't installed the train horns yet.

I like the dodge sooo much more. I hated that allison tranny. And I didn't like the seats in the LT chevy either, hurt my hip.

This thing is a gas!

Long tube headers, CAI, Shift kit, Up Rev engine program, Air bags with on board air, Leveling kit. Pulls my 27' Legend with ease.

Just bought a 2007 GMC 1500 crew cab "Max" edition...black on black, 4X4, heavy tow package ( part of the MAX edition ) and a 6.0 in it. drives beautifully, tons of grunt but needs a CAI, cat back exhaust and a tune....so far I'm loving the truck!

Congrats Shadow, they are great trucks, especially with the 6.9ltr in it.

My 09 has had it share of problems but all is good now(I hope?)
A tune is coming soon as well, probably going to use that guy in Bowmanville(name escapes me?) I heard about $425-$450 and it makes a huge difference.

Traded in my 07 Pontiac for a 06 explorer V6 EB. Tows my jeep and sled and get 22mpg, pretty happy with it.

Just picked up a 2010 F150 Super Crew. I must say this is my first Ford and so far I have been impressed! Pulls as good or better then my 2500 Sierra and better on gas!

I went for a little test drive in the new f150 super crew, it has tons of room! I bet it has even more room than a dodge megacab in the back...and the seats didn't suck horribly like the mega. I liked it.

That is exactly what sold us on the F-150. Huge cab and the 6 foot box. The cab is not quite as large as the Mega cab but seems to be made/organized better so it does feel larger.

I have been working on my new tow rig over the past year and it is ready for duty this season. It is a 98' Chevy Astro AWD. I put on 2" lift kit and oversized tires this summer. G.B.
