  1. Building a Tow Vehicle

    Yes. I spent the evening searching for 2020s in my area. Some very good deals. One $60k truck with moonroof, etc. was $50k! Very tempting. Today I also happened upon this video that compares the 5.0 and 3.5L EB. The reviewer echoed many of the comments made here: go with the 3.5L for low end...
  2. Video discussing the various engines with focus on 3.5L EB vs 5.0 V8 (travel trailer towing perspective)

    This video popped up in YouTube. Discussion is from a travel trailer towing perspective. As a newb researching a tow vehicle I found it very useful. (I'll let the experts here decide how accurate it is.)
  3. Building a Tow Vehicle

  7. Price increase for Max Trailer Tow Package effective December 23

    Forgive me for being new, but does this mean the price increases by $645? The Max Trailer Tow Package (53C) is priced at $1350 according to the price list thread. (And if so, that sucks because I've been building configs with the max tow package to order.)
