    Thinking about an upgrade for the tow vehicle

    Skip the V10s Go diesel (except the 6.0) I would go with the Dodge/Cummins myself as it is not a light duty diesel like everyone else. It is industrial based All the trucks with automatic transmissions will eventually have transmission issues. Ford and GM now share transmissions Last Ford...
