At least those Starcraft rigs are comfortable. I'm suprised you even bother pullin' it with a gasser though.

its either the mega cab gas job or a quad cab diesel. WILL NOT buy another 6.7L so crew cab option is out and im pretty picky on what i want for my next DD. Sucks packing 5 people in a quad cab

Edit-- I really like this starcraft so far. The layout is perfect for me. however, the build quality was nothign spectacular in my honest opinion... was some really stupid shit that got half assed

It's all good lol. I'm not to worried about it. The only thing i will ever replace it with is an 06/07 5.9 g56 mega cab loaded laramie. Understand why i still have the gasser lol?

I've seen 2 of them forsale in the last 4 months. Both overpriced to fuck.

But i can tell you, you're not pulling this with a tundra. I sit on the overloads in a 3/4 ton. pig is a nightmare to tow with all the hitch weight it has.

There are plenty of 2wd mega cabs out there. Why so hate on the 6.7? I don't know what brand his is but it's 34' and bumper pull. Myrtle beach is only 4hrs from us and that is about as far as he goes. He said his 5.3L 06 silverado reg cab long bed pulled it better. I convinced him to go diesel but he bought a 99' power joke. Rides better stops better still won't pull. I told him no shit he is down 100hp and 200lb ft of torque over a stock HO ISB.

we pull 4wd class

on top of that, it's not even practical for me to own a 2wd truck. My personal trucks get used around the farm and for fun too much. 2wd truck with a camper in mud or sand is a no go lol
