Yea, you aren't the first one that ive seen with a busted trans in stock form. Which makes me leary about them, not that a 6l90 in the GM application is much better. Easier to rebuild though.
I don't tow anything very heavy, I just want something ~400hp and lifted. And I want the physical size and strength of a 2500, I don't want to run 37s on a half ton. And I don't want to run a 6 inch 35 tire half ton, its not enough for me, I get bored just thinking about it. Diesel is the easy way, but lots of drama I don't exactly want to deal with at this point in my life. But I realize its going to be hard to stabilize reliability, cost, and performance lol.
The only exception to the half ton, is the ecodiesel. Which I think would be cool, but after all the problems I had with my first one, I cant imagine buying another. Even if its free fix under warranty, its not worth it. Getting ~22mpg lifted would be awesome, but not if you cant ever drive it because its busted! New F150 diesel is out soon, but I'm sure its littered with problems too. We will see, maybe that's my white unicorn.
Hey... my first towing experience was with a 85 k10, stock 350, 35s, and a th350 lol. So yea, things are A LOT better now!
