Its a nice tow rig & will pull almost anything you put behind it but even when empty expect to get a best of 12MPG. When towing will prob be in the 8's. A Desiel would make a much better tow rig due to much better fuel mileage & tork for pulling. Loaded or unloaded expect fuel mileage around 15MPG.The resale value is low on the Dodge V10's due to the horrible fuel milage & price of gas (Thats prob why he is selling it). Its an exelent engine with the same trans (48RE) as the Cumins. The V10 was not produced very long (95 to 03) because everyone wanted the Cumins. The Ford V10 was smaller at 6.8L but was slightly more powerfull & reved much higher but they dropped that engine in 05. Not telling you it's a bad truck but just trying to help you make a good choice. Good luck.
