I’m not bragging because it could be better. I’m just showing real numbers...good or bad. If I’d slow down or draft with the big rigs I could do a lot better.
If we lived closer I could just tow you camping behind the trailer and you’d get the beer. Save the alcohol for what matters. Win win.

I don’t get why we all argue about trucks anyway. We’ve got it so good no matter what brand you want. I’m reminded when I get the ‘67 out for a diesel refuel. It’s fun to drive the old truck but I wouldn’t want to go to far out of town.

Carburetors and 3 speeds. 13 mpg actually and I’m happy with that.

He’s just full of s*** and stirring the pot
Lol. Ya I’ve heard him talk about his truck. But it has gotten the job done. We can all talk s*** but at the end of the day that’s all that matters. Especially those times we’ve been lucky enough to be sitting together in the woods with an ice cold beer bulls***ting about the hill we just Pioneered. :cool:

I know right! I don’t get how we are in a Honda club so we all love reliability but some people like Cheby and Ram. It’s like wiping BEFORE you poop, just doesn’t make sense.

I just couldn't imagine more than 800 . It's so beautiful towing across country.
unless possibility pulling massive weight. 400 torque was acceptable in mine but the 600 sure feels good. I thought about bumping it more for s***s and giggles but it’s got plenty especially the way the manual gets it to the ground. My dang kid had me all hyped up there for a little bit to get more. He’s going for 1200 on just his tow rig, I think it’s so unnecessary!

Oh, didn’t you hear. Ram guys heads are so far upntheir asses, they don’t poop... they just expel from their mouths... that’s why their comments are such s***!

If we were really going for overall dependability we’d all be driving Tundra. We drive Jap Sxs and argue American trucks. That would be like Polaris guys arguing Sxs while driving Jap trucks...

Lol... it’s like these mass HP machines in the woods... there’s a point where more is just pointless. I’m of the mindset that if I were to get a diesel for pulling I’d go the western hauler route like @Kilo427. But again, I’m not pulling that often or that heavy. It wouldn't be a daily driver so it would just sit most of the time and that’s no bueno.

I ain’t full of s***. I know vehicles well and the numbers. Know the positives and negatives on most. I don’t argue incorrect s*** just personal preferences.

Very true. Toyota ranks top in the 2019 consumer reports again. F150 is close and ram and GM hold up the rear with titan.

I like the tundra but they’re a little behind in several areas, just not reliability. It was a killer truck when it released but it’s due an update.
