Looking for a new daily driver/tow rig for my pilot house Defiance. It is 10 miles 1 way to work. I tow to the salt around 50 days a year, and I plan go from Issaquah to Coronet Bay or Sekieu/ Neah a lot.
-Any input from board members as to whether or not I should go diesel or gas?
-I need a 3/4 ton, because loaded the package is right at 5000 lbs.
-Is a 10 mile commute 20 round trip going to kill a diesel prematurely?
-Will he mileage from a gas be terrible when towing the boat?
-Sure like the resale and longevity of the diesel. I plan to have the truck for 7 or 8 years.
-Looking used 2-4 years old or less....And thinking Duramax F-250.
-Thanks for the help!
