No ***** Sherlock. You said it right there. You don't buy ANY v-6 4x2 work truck and try to tow heavy loads with it. Yeah, any work truck you try that with will tear itself apart.

Of the places around here, the vast majority run nothing but Ford work trucks. Oh they may have a plush Chevy for the foreman to drive around and eat donuts in while the men work. But the truck that haul the concrete, blocks, wood, etc in beds are all Fords. F-250 service trucks and F-350 trucks to tow trailers is also the norm. Go figure. To me that says it all, what do the people who WORK use? FORD!

There's more than a few F-550 and F-650 box trucks around too.
