Also, I think a tow vehicle with a diesel will hold it's value more. Also make sure you get appropriate suspension and transmission, not just the motor. If you don't plan to do anything other than tow, why wouldn't you get a diesel?

Hopefully Martin knows for sure, I'm thinking about 9000 lbs but not sure. We will be towing mainly to OC, CBBT and NC, cant imagine going anywhere else. As far as value we are buying a beater anyway so we'll drive it till it dies...we are both leaning toward diesel, but we can get a newer truck with less miles obviously with going gas....
Thanks!
Marty, saw your response, thanks for the help
didn't see any website keith put up, where?
