So the 5.4 will have to work harder just to move the truck vs a f150 with a 5.4. Or should I suck it up and just get a PSD

and pay the price for Diesel. I will be towing on just about all flat land and the trailer loaded with the bobcat with be around 5500-6000 or so.

Thanks agian, Josh

If it were me I would get the biggest badist truck I could afford to pay for and put gas in. in the long run you will me much happier if you get it right the first time around. assuming you can afford the total cost of ownership of all the choices we are talking about here, If I were in your shoes it would be PSD all the way. If your engine is doing any kind fo heavy lifting, a big diesel it the way to go. regardless of what each engine can do, the PSD will last you the longest.
