I'm considering purchasing a new pickup truck. I would use the vehicle to drive to our property(about 150mi round trip)on weekends,for hunting,firewood hauling,general work and would like to pull a dual axle trailor. I want to haul my 790/FEL down to the property at times.I'm leaning towards a four-wheel drive but are thinking of all the additional moving parts that will have to be maintained and the gas mileage difference. Would a half ton be sufficient for an occassional tow or is a three quarter ton required? I don't want to start a war but what do you like or don't like about Fords or Chevies or Dodges? I have an F150 short box with standard transmission currently, but the first gear is much too high for doing work.Other than the gearing, the Ford truck has been A-1 so far.
