[QUOTE="shorthairsrus, post: 148913, member: 219"] I dont know why they would need a little diesel if they are keeping the platform of the eco. It acts like one -- I cant imagine the cost would be less. Broken i dont know if you are talking today's technology or not -- but with the technology today i am the anti sway and breaking the vehicle does upon a sway of the trailer eliminates some (not all) of the need for a bigger truck. So last year we hauled in a trailer to we fest -- i used my eco when backing around and up hills etc at we fest -- the littler eco doesnt grunt or spin it just does it job. This year we took the chevy 3/4 its like straining and spinning and (no it wasnt wet) --to back the thing up. I have a trailer i think over all length is 34-35 -- i worried -- went through the scale - i dont remember the weight -- the truck itself weighs more than what i thought / actually more than any 1/2 i have owned. The technology on sway is incredible and it pulls hills just like you have a boat or something light. My red chevy has 3.73s and it shifts like a sob pulling the boat up a hill. This thing just idles even with that big sob it pulls hills at 70. Wind no effect. The only thing it does is drink fuel and suck air. [/QUOTE]
