Upgrade: 3/4 -> Dually

We have a 2019 Keystone Impact 3219 that I was pulling with my 2012 F250. Wanted some more peace of mind so we just got a 2019 Denali 3500. The 3/4-ton pulled it fine, but I was more concerned about controlling the load especially going down mountain grades. The 3219 is 16k GVWR so over the 3/4 capabilities. My wife said she didnt enjoy the ride when we were going somewhere because I was too stressed. We should both be happier now

Beautiful TV Cannonball your gonna love it and so will the Mrs with heat and cooled seats and all the other accoutrements. Best part is no Bosch HPFP or ECU to spoil the day. You made a great choice IMHO. Happy Camping.

Sweet truck what year is it. The 311 with the open floor plan and 6000 pounds payload is nice will carry a lot of toys. It's right at the same weight as my 311. I pulled it with LML2500 duramax befor I upgraded TV . You can pm me if you have questions on the duramax . The l5p definitely likes the d e f .

DRWs really are underrated as good trucks for TTs in my opinion. For 5ers, they are pretty much mandatory (IMO).

Congratulations on a great truck!

I must’ve been seeing something. The post numbers are between my iPad and phone. On my phone I can see his new white GMC DRW but it doesn’t show on my iPad. Must be the different versions of Tapatalk.

Pics are on Google. Probably an issue using the mobile version of the site. Here they are as attachments instead of embedded links.

thanks! First trip is coming up!
