#1 of 2 Thinking of buying a 2008 MegaCab

I'm in the market for a newer 4x2 p/u truck. Preferably gas. Been comparing 2008 dodge , chevy, ford. Having a hell of a time deciding. I like the dodge megacab's size and price. Any suggestions, problems, advice would be greatly appreciated
Will be pulling a 26' boat on or a travel trailer every now & then but mostly light duty work.
Thanx in advance.

Keep in mind the MegaCab 1500 is really a 2500 with two differences... a "1" on the door instead of a "2", and a slightly downgraded GVWR rating (8510 vs 8800), although the components are the same. The MC 1500 even has the 8-lug wheels of the HD line.
With that extra been, the MC 1500 should handle your towing a lot better than the Silverado 1500 and F150 which are true half-tons on lighter frames.
