So first I miss TRS so I'm looking to sell my focus and get back into an rbv before I put something in the car I shouldn't.
Anywayz on Monday I'll be charged with moving a piece of equipment at work. It's an aggragate(sp?) screener which weighs about 17,000-20,000lbs (actual weight unknown by me) I'm hoping to the fence near the gate on the property it's on but possibly my boss may insist on pulling it to some company owned property about 5 miles away (no highway). Unfortuantely due to the economy we sold off our dumptrucks from lack of use leaving me with pick ups to use to move it.
I can use either a 2009 chevy 3500 reg cab 6.0 gasser dually with utility bed, 2wd or I can use a 2005 chevy 2500 crew cab duramax long bed 4wd. Both trucks are solid, I've used the same pair of trucks to tow a sealcoating trailer (15-16,000lbs when full) down the highway with no issues, the gasser sings alot louder but the diesel squats more. I'm leaning to the 3500 gasser because it has the better brakes and heavier suspension but the 2500 has a diesel. Just checking for opinions,which do you think I should use?????
