pulls as good as a diesel.. lol i wish. i wouldnt be confused on what to buy if that was the case. 440 horsepower and 860 lb-ft of torque in the 2015 diesels is quite a lot more power... pretty much double.

If you are not hauling a big 5th wheel or working the truck hauling stock or plan the get a boat that requires the diesel I would get half ton gas. Just traded in my 08 duramax, on a chev 1500 4x4. The ride is better, fuel eco is better and there is always some extra cost in owning a diesel. It tows my boat and my tractor great
