I no longer tow the Kubota or a travel trailer so I was recently looking at trading the GMC 2500 HD for a gas 2500 pickup. No one has anything near what I wish for in towing capacity...the new 7.3 gas would cause me to made a new purchase instantly if it had 12-15K towing capacity. The only reason for diesel anymore is towing capacity....there's no formula to justify it otherwise as diesel fuel is constantly higher than gas. It didn't used to be this way...diesel always followed gas up and down...now it just stays high year round. When it hit bottom, I bought 200-300 gallons at a time as it has a long shelf life. The F550 has made a new Ford believer in me. I would welcome a 7.3 gas pickup.
