Big truck little load

A guy at work the other night was wondering what I pull with my CTD. I said that I dont pull real heavy just 2 or 3 atv`s. He said why do you have a truck with all that power if all you pull is a few four wheelers. I told him " I like to keep it out in the hammer lane and I dont like to downshift when going up long steep grades 8)". He didnt say anything else. I love this engine, and the dodge truck ain`t so bad eather ;D

You should have ponted out that the CTD gets 20 mpg running around and 15-17 pulling heavy. Do THAT with a gasser ;D<br><br>Oh, and how long do gas engines last? Our truck bodies will go before the motor does.
