I've been seeking a 2022 LM2 or 2023 LZ0 and really wanted to find one with the 13K towing option, which has seemed basically impossible. I started out looking for a 2500, but the appeal of a baby diesel for everyday driving while having the flexibility to haul over 10K a few times a year (such as a pull behind or my 17 foot open trailer and Kubota L39) is appealing.
So I'm seeking experiences of those who are using a 3.0 1500 without the max tow package and how it's fairing for them? from an engine perspective, it seems like LZ0 with non-aluminum pistons would seem like the more durable choice, but I'm interested in everyone's perspective on the LM2 vs LZ0 with towing longevity in mind.
