I have a 2003 Chevy 2500 with 6.0 gas engine. I use it to pull my tractors to shows and to pull my 5th wheel trailer on vacations. On my last trip pulling about 11,000 lbs I had a lot of problems in the mountains and only averaged about 8-9 miles to the gallon. I think I want to get a used diesel truck but need some very good advice on which brand to get. I want to spend around 20K. Any advice would be appreciated. I have heard some horror stories about the cost of maintaining or repairing a diesel and certain years seem to be problematic. Also what kind of mileage can I expect and should I get automatic or standard?
