Yup Chevy 6 will haul! Eco boost, hold my beer......

I had a buddy many years ago that had a '96 or '97 C1500 scsb with a 4.3/4L60E/3.42, that he tied a 36 or 40 foot gooseneck onto with about 9k lbs of hay. It worked just fine, until he absolutely smoked the poor 60E. I was behind him when it happened, in my K3500. It looked like a grenade went off under his truck. Left bits and pieces scattered all over the road. Found a chunk of one of the planets.

I told him it was gonna go boom. He bet me it wouldn't.

I completely agree. He didn't. And he got mad when I told him that the damage was preventable. He just declared half ton Chevys as junk. But this is also the same friend that managed to nuke a friggin Cummins. And an Allison. And a Duramax. And another Cummins. So, yeah. He's hard on vehicles....

I don't mind the concept of an el camino/ranchero. Honda building a unibody cruck and passing it off as a small truck to compete with Tacoma, Colorado and Frontier is just sad.

I like a lot of the Holden stuff (I'm trying to convince my wife to replace her dd with a 05-06 GTO) but that COMMODEore ute has the styling of a house slipper disguised as a roller skate.
I'd drive either of these....
