Wow Rmills8! That boat looks huge behind that truck! How many pounds all together? The feed back I've been getting does not sound real good! My biggest problem is, if I were to go to an F250 the monster would not fit in my garage! It would kill me to have to set it outside all the time! I'm one of those people who has to have the cleanest truck on the road. Maybe I can talk my wife into trading in her Envoy and getting a Yukon 3/4 ton?

David, It depends what style of F250 you get. If you get a Screw longbed, it might not fit. I had a burb, and it fit in my garage fine. If I were going to tow something that big, I would'nt get a Yukon, it's too short, unless it's a Yukon XL. I think that would be the Burb Chasis length. That 2500 sounds good and it will probably fit in your garage as well.

I can not fit anything over 224" in our garage. A Yukon XL would probably fit. I think they are around 219' or so.

Excursion is 226"

Yukon XL is 219. W/ 8.1L and 4.10 gear, you can tow up to 12k pounds. You'd be much happier with that than and F-150.
