So the wife and I are thinking its time to upgrade to at least a 1 ton that’s newer than the truck in my sig. Our current truck carries a 2 year old Citation Camper (top end Alpenlite competitor). Its 3000 lbs. dry which throws us about 1000lbs over the GVW on the truck when loaded WITHOUT a trailer. Our family is expanding so a 4 door is a must, but the trailer will only get heavier and heavier with toys. I’m not one for Duels, but the F650's look killer. I'm not sure if the camper would go on a medium duty even with the dually jack brackets on the front. I’m also not one for trading the camper on a 5er toy hauler, I just don’t want too sleep with stuff that leaks gas and I don't need floor space in the living quarters. I'd also like to keep the price tag under 30k.
So I’m looking for pro's and cons of jumping from a 1 ton too something bigger. And I also need to drive too work in something. Could get a cheap commuter, but then the truck would sit between trips. And that would **** me off. I'd also want to run bio in it...
Thanks.
