This.
Dually Gasser.. better off finding a 6.5L Turbo Detroit dually if you're picky on price.
Though, if you get a 6.0 HD 3/4 ton, get stout brakes if you're gonna use it as a primary tow rig. Lost count of the amount of pads and rotors we've gone through on the '04. Has no problem hauling ass with a load but pray to god you got space to stop.
Invest in an aftermarket trailer brake too, if one already isn't installed. It's such a nice thing to have and thankfully GM offers it on the HD package now.
