I don’t tow enough 75% of the time to need a 3/4-1 ton, but those times I do, I may have 7k # of tractor and bucket, then add bush hog, other implements,....whatever, and sometimes it’s not far, but other times I may be going 6-10 hours. If I was just hauling around here, I’d be fine with an older something. I don’t think I’ll be buying brand new, either. I just don’t want to be looking at my 1st gen tundra and then at my bud’s small skid steer or my Deere 5200 and our equipment trailer, and knowing I better not try that. LOL
I don’t think I’d have a cab over or utility bed need, but you never know, I guess.....just trying to be able to load up whatever I have and get to duck or deer camp, or such....when I want, and not having worrying about enough truck. No commercial use. No dozers or track hoes or huge skidders.
