The 1500 will be great! Mine rides and tows great, but I replaced the 1500 springs with ones from a 2500 cause of the toonge weight of my camper.
1500 will come with 6cyl, 4.8 V8m 5.3 V8, and the 2500 will come with the 6.0
My 4.8 got 14 to 15 mpg, my newer 5.3 now gets 16.5 mpg My brother 2500 with the 6.0 gets 12 to 13 mpg.
His ride is a but stuffer but still just fine! But the 1500 will be great!
Mine both have 4x4 on the fly, just a push of a button and works great. On the days when the side streets are snow and the main is not I love the auto 4x4, as soon as it skips it goes right in 4x4, great when pulling out of side streets.
I have towed up tp 10.000 pounds with mine and had bo trouble with eletric breaks
About time you looking at a real truck
