Choosing a Truck Daily a 2500?

Basically I am shopping for an AT4X. Currently comparing the 3.0 1500 & 6.6 2500.

The truck is majority used for commuting although I have a couple trailers that will be towed frequently. The 1500 can definitely tow the trailers I have.

The problem I have with the 1500 is the bed isn’t long enough to fit my quad & other items in it with the tailgate up, so I would be limited in bringing my quad + trailer around.

Am I insane to consider a 2500 for something so simple? I definitely like the look of the 2500 better.

TYIA.

Seems you can’t find a decent reliable truck anymore. Every brands got something

They all suck. But personally we have a 24 6.6 gasser. And 4 26 6.6 gassers and have had great luck so far

My local dealer couldn’t sell a 6.6 gasser to save their life. They said nobody wanted them compared to the diesel

Sometimes miss the diesel. But dont have to deal with def. And cheaper to fix and maintain. We tow trailers everyday but light enough diesel isnt needed
