Hi, 

I have a 2nd Generation Truck but “possibly” looking for a second truck for the wife.

Ran into a man today who I have not seen in a while. He bought a truck BEFORE getting a huge Toy Hauler and has decided he now needs a Dually. 

I rented a 2016 a couple of years ago for trip to Wyoming.  

 

Anyone own own one of these? And what are the pro and cons please. 

Thanks Leaky

I recently picked up a 2011 MegaCab. I 2nd what ME78569 said, It tows 100x better than my 2nd. It handles our 5th wheel much better!!! It's a couple MPG lower than my 2nd gen empty, at 16mpg (vs 18 Mpg 2nd gen) empty. It seems to be nearly the same Mpg towing, but a whole lot more comfortable doing so. Exhaust brake and integrated brake controller are very nice!!!

I should add that the 2nd gen is SRW 2500 3.55 geared. The 4th gen is DRW 3.73 geared, so the DRW's probably account for a big chunk of the 2mpg difference when empty.
