[QUOTE="BrandonM, post: 2116015, member: 6435"] I've been driving an '08 GMC 3500 diesel for a couple of years. No doubt it's faster than our other work trucks which are all F350 diesels. However if you put a trailer on it, even an empty one, it goes into an "engine power is reduced" mode and top speed comes out to about 45mph down a hill and takes several minutes to reach those break neck speeds. It likes to do this once you get a few hundred miles from home. The mechanics can't figure it out. I don't care enough to pursue it since it's a work owned vehicle. I drive a Ford F350 now. And the Ford doesn't have the same jacked up rear end that makes it almost impossible to see behind you. I'm 6'2" and can't see out the back well enough. Ford>GMC. Close the thread, I ended the debate. Dodge will always be the red headed step child in this topic. [/QUOTE]
