Hi all, it's time to buy a new truck- finally! I have been looking at the Dodge and Chevy 2500 (3/4 ton) 4x4 diesels. But a salesman today said he thought I could pull the horses just fine with a 1500 (1/2ton) because they have beefier suspension and anti-sway capabilities than they used to- and both are rated to pull approx 10,500 pounds. So- have any of you used these trucks to pull your horses? what do you think of them? (I will at the most pull a three horse stock-type trailer but I do pull up and down mountains and dirt roads)
I have always stayed away from 1/2 tons because of the weight issue with live animals but the salesman today started me thinking. A 1500 would sure be easier on the gas, and the pocketbook!!
Words of wisdom?
thanks,
Chris Pennington
