HAHAHAHA.....The gear vendors overdrive costs more than a 6.2 Burban is
worth.

Well, the burb probably dogs out due to the rear end ratio. The trick to
compensate for that is to get one of those gear vendors over/underdrive
units. you will get an extra overdrive for highway cruising and get even
better fuel milage when not loaded down , but when towing you can
effectively put it in direct and under ( in reality, the gear below and
over ) to lower the final drive ratio and give you all the pulling oomph
you need.

Well the 1 ton 6.5 td doesnt even know there is a car on a trailer back
there, but the burb 6.2 diesel is kind of slow, but gets the job done
and gets a little better mileage. Also thought about finding a mid 90's
3.4 ton 6.5 td with a 5 speed, that would probably get pretty decent
mileage without the slushbox.

yep. The only reason I was really looking was for the extended cab to
get more people in if needed. I will be sticking with my 95 and my

Dayum, you are smarter than you look!! With the burb, there's plenty
of seating anyway. Which one is your preferred hauler?
