Since you are leaning toward Ford, I don't think you would go wrong. I respect the experiences of our friends on this forum who drive Fords. On the other hand, if for any reason you find a good deal on a Chevrolet, I can testify that you would not go wrong that way either. We have used two Chevrolet 2500 HD pickups. The first used gasoline fuel. Our present one is a Duramax with Allison transmission. On the basis of our experience I would have no hesitation to recommend this as also a good choice.

Bottom line: You can't go wrong in selecting the 'make' of your tow pickup. I prefer the regular 'long' bed as I use the pickup around our homeplace, and I don't have to worry about any special hitch. The 3/4 ton (2500/250) handles our Montana without any strain. The Duramax (diesel) has been entirely worth the money for us. I hope you will find encouragement in all of this.
