I haven't weighed it yet. The truck is about 8400 ready to go down the road. The trailer is allegedly 13800 dry 18k gross.

The dodge does ok, it's one of the last 5.9 trucks and it's a 6 spd manual. My buddy has a 2016 4500. If I was in the market for a new truck that would be the one. I wanted to stay with about a 36' trailer but I wanted a 12' garage. I was looking at a fuzion, it was about 38' but it was the same dry weight and had 2 7k axles. The spartan is 39' with 3 7k axles. That's the biggest reason I went with it.

slight overkill
I pulled this back from Atlanta last fall to Colorado. The tongue broke 50 miles from home and luckily I found a farmer that welded it back together. I was fortunate for it not being a major mishap.  ![](http://www.forestriverforums.com/forums/<a href="<a href=http://s1096.photobucket.com/user/flymhi01/media/FullSizeRender_zpsupnfsu1t.jpg.html" target=_blank>http://s1096.photobucket.com/user/flymhi01/media/FullSizeRender_zpsupnfsu1t.jpg.html"</a> target="_blank"><img src="<a href=http://i1096.photobucket.com/albums/g329/flymhi01/FullSizeRender_zpsupnfsu1t.jpg" target=_blank>http://i1096.photobucket.com/albums/g329/flymhi01/FullSizeRender_zpsupnfsu1t.jpg"</a> border="0" alt="1964 Camper photo FullSizeRender_zpsupnfsu1t.jpg"/></a>)

If you're finished with that truck, I'll take it a couple of laps!

How do you like the Duramax, the more and more I see those the more tempting it is getting love the exterior look on those trucks not fond of the interior but overall really nice.
I think they are a tad bit cheaper then the Fords and Dodges too but I have only looked at Fords for now

They have always been trouble free for me. The last one I had was an 03' that I sold when diesel was pushing $5/gal. Stuck with the GMC gasser until oil prices came back down. I think they have a great ride and will pull just about anything without effort. Have you seen the digital dash in the 15'-16's? I think it's head and shoulders above the others. I do like the new front ends on the 16's. Just waiting on the HUD option like the Acadia's currently offer before I get the bug again. Probably 2017 models.
