I would like to have input from you all that pull gooseneck trailers that are 6 ft wide 20 ft long steel trailer that has a gross weight of 6900 pounds.
Have found a really nice Chevy 3500 Crew Cab, long bed with a 5.7 Vortec, 90,000+ miles that is ready to pull. Within my price range of $12000.00.
With the limited funds I have should I wait and try and find a Ford F250 Powerstroke Super Cab that can pull almost anything. Don't want a dually.
How much will I be giving up if I buy the gas engine vs the diesel. This is a one time shot at purchasing a different vehicle.
I need to know if this is enough horsepower/engine if I get into hills like in Arkansas or surrounding states--not going to the mountains like NV, NM or CO--if I do that will go with a friend of mine.
