My thought would be, do you already have the 2500 and how far do you plan on moving it?

If you already have the truck, try it and see how it works, especially if you are not going long distances with it. You may have to add a little here or there, but that should be a lot less expensive than a new truck.

If you are buying a new truck it would be a different ball game.

Just my 2c.

You could probably move it with a 1/2 ton shortbed, just think of all the money you could save then.

Besides what could possibly go wrong?


The information is out there, all you have to do is let it in.
