I did it...

Ordered myself a tow rig. It's a *gulp* Ford F-350. 2005 long bed crew cab DRW 4x4 in the new dark stone color. Got the 6 speed and manual transfer case, but loaded other than that, moonroof, leather, all that fun stuff. Now the waiting begins for it to be built and delivered...

6.0L I take it. Should be a damn nice truck. How long did they estimate it would take to get to you?

YYYYYYYEEEEEEEEEHHHHHHHHHHHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAATOWRIG-FER-SHAGGY!!!

Good choice, I highly doubt you will have any problems with the 6.0 and with the Ford you don't have to mess with IFS. You will really enjoy the loaded interior, especially the leather seats.

I hope that I don't regret the DRW option... If I ever get a slide-in camper I'll appreciate it, but other than that it's gonna be hard to park that bubble-butted bitch. Supposed to be 6-8 weeks, some people wait less than 5, others over 10, so I dunno for sure...

hahah bubble-butted hahaha I too had thoes thoughts, but like you said now you can get a fully loaded slide in were I must go with a lighter one. I'm sure you will get use to it in time
Later

I don't think you will regret the DRW choice. You hardly notice it after a month. And the extra stability when towing is very noticeable. After owning two F350 SRWs and then buying a new 3500 DRW, I don't think I'll ever go back to the SRW.
