Tow vehicle

I did a lot of research on this topic and had the same ideas as you when I started... ultimately, nothing beats a diesel truck... I bought a used 100K miles F250 6.0L superduty in good shape and it tows like a beast... had $1,000 in electronics repairs but otherwise I couldn't be more happy

I NEVER have to think about whether the brakes or engine are up to the task... never have to think about how much I load or where I place the load in the trailer... etc

The truck was $10K... and I could care less if it gets scratched, beat on, bird crapped on, broken into (all those have happened already)... it sits in my driveway in the sun and I don't care... and it still tows like a beast!

Quad cab means it can haul 5 people... long bed means I can use it to move debris, tires, trash, lumber, mulch, etc of almost any dimension
