Tow vehicle help

If you could deal with a gasser, my Tundra rocks. I'm around 7000 lbs on the hitch, does it very very well. and still rides nice around town. 380 hp yanks it around with ease.

Ram: less $ for a reason. wait till the dash starts rattling and you'll understand why they're cheaper. Not trying to knock anyone's rig, but after driving one for a few years, never again.

What im saying is you can pickup a 2500 ram cummins diesel for like 43k and a tundra is not a real towing vehicle its more of a transport some bark chips in the back once a year or tow a jetski around sometimes its not a tow specific truck even if it has a hitch on it.

A Tundra is rated up to 10.5k, a bit more than a jet ski and some bark.

Nobody cares what a gas truck is rated they can have it rated at 20k for all i care we have both and the comparison between a tundra and a diesel ram is night and day. You can be going 80 mph and towing a 6k boat behind it and it feels like your standing still and not moving its crazy how well that thing tows and the tundra feels like a airplane in turbulence you get thrown around like crazy its just not made to tow 24/7 its a soccer mom car lmao you just slap the rating and you think thats good what the heck man a tow rating means scat its how well it handles the weight behind it. There's difference in suspension/transmission etc c'mon man you have to know at least something lmao.

Sorry man but you are talking out of your ass.

Tow ratings put on trucks by any decent manufacturer follows an independent ratings system (SAE J2807). The standard of these ratings far exceed what most manufacturers we're putting on trucks years ago which is why the ratings have come down over the years.

Sure a diesel will do a better job in most cases but that doesn't mean the gas trucks aren't up to the task of pulling their rating.

I think maybe you need to educate yourself on whats really going into these trucks rather than just drinking the coal rolling Kool aid.

If cheap is the priority, definitely don't want a Tundra. doesn't sound like you can afford it
