Hey Eddie, I’d love to get your opinion on what used truck to buy. Im wanting to spend about $30-$40k and I have found some decent deals out there in this crazy marked.

To measure for a weight distributing hitch you have to get the squat over all four wheels of the truck the same. The trailer should be level and that is a function of moving the ball up or down. The bars on the hitch do not have to be straight. If you need to transfer more weight the bars may be curved to provide the proper amount of transfer from the rear to the front.

Love these vids eddy! Can i make a request? To eliminate human input ( since the viewers can't feel the gas pedal and its position) can you run a test like this with the cruise set at different speeds or at least the speed limit, That way the truck is putting in the input? Then time your run and see what truck gets it done quicker?

Looks like Pops ran his truck in 7th (1:1) gear max, locking out 8,9,10. That’s why it said L7 on the display. Do over. Tell pops to leave the shifter alone this time. Just put it in drive with Tow/Haul. It’d be like Eddie running his Ram in 4th gear max (1:1).

Since they can't even measure the hitch bar correctly (5/8 is NOT 3/4), why would you expect them to operate the transmission correctly?! Since you're in Cali, maybe a test at legal speeds for towing would be useful. Towing at 70 is how those KZbin "dramatic trailer crash" videos are made.

Just wanted to let you know that with pops havin the truck in L gear not D, he had control over what gear he was in. It never would have down shifted. Also when using the D selection with the shifter, with every touch of the brake it will down shift to next gear as long as there is gear left to down shift in with out maxing rpm range out. It’s how even my Colorado works with the 2.8.

I'd go Duramax, but I'd go Cummins if they hadn't redone the Duramax. The pros the new Duramax has over Cummins and Powerstroke are, larger wheel base, larger radiator, larger oil coolers, larger fan diameter, aluminum fan not plastic, turbo timer, ram air and fuel coolers. All are industry leading so in a bit shell cooler means hp/ and torque are not lost in summer towing and longevity of hp/torque because heat kills diesels and turbos. All that has been added under those massive front ends, function over form.
