I don't really care what size it is but my hope is that they make it substantially better on fuel than the 2500/3500. I read about these new trucks being rated to tow 30,000lbs & 850lbs of torque & it doesn't make sense to me when 9 out of 10 guys that own them don't even own a trailer hitch.
If in 1989 we could build a 1 ton truck with a diesel that could make 25mpg religiously & still have over 400lbs of torque...should it not be feasible to get at least 40(honest)mpg in a 1/2T truck with an 8 speed transmission 25 years later??
Me thinks so or I wouldn't have the slightest interest in it.
