    These are such amazing Trucks. I just bought a 2022 and I have to say out of all the trucks I have owned it is the “most solid” and I’ve had 7 trucks…. My “only” gripe is the MPG but when you buy a HD truck your not getting it for fuel efficient MPG. I wanted a diesel but I did a lot of stop and go driving and only tow 5-6 times a year and there are a lot of unknowns about diesel plus initial cost, maintenance, and repair cost…..

      that is really a bit of a farce . you can put 2500 regular springs in the rear and jump to 15k like any other 2500 or simply put rear air bags and get 15k capacity. its just the single rate off road spring causes the low weight pulling.

      Now the PW fills with 28 gallons 31 tank every 7 days. Average 10 city, 15 hwy. I do notice that the consumption is higher but not as bad for heavy truck. I just have 900 miles on it.
