I didn't think they were that much more, but I may be wrong, check base sticker to sticker to see the difference, I had a 4 door before this one and liked it, don't really miss it, but I hardy ever haul anyone but my wife, and what the hell I'm not going to ride in the back anyway.

We have a 2001 4x4 xtended cab w/91K, not 1 problem and 6 different guys drive it. I drive a 2002 crew cab 4x4 with my 37 Thunder get around 12, but I have a heavy foot, without the trailer and boat I average 16-17, mostly city driving and long idles at the job sites. I just ordered a 2003 Dually, so this one is going up for sale. 44K sticker, cost was 39K, added a speed grill, nerf bars, flat locking top for bed, edge performance module and a few other items, has 13k on it and looks brand new, gets washed once to twice a week. 35K as is, let me know if anyone interested.

I just pulled my 32' Fountain 1200 miles 2 weeks ago using a '03 GMC 1 ton dually w/ Duramax/Allison. Only got 9 1/2 mpg.
Was hoping for above 15.
On the brighter side, what a POWERHORSE!!! I was going UP the Missouri mountains at 75mph and gaining speed!
My 3/4 Ford SD with the underpowered 5.4 would bog down to 35 mph going up smaller hills pulling my 27 Fever. Can only guess how it will pull the new 32'.

STOPPED THINKING ABOUT IT AND BOUGHT IT ! I GO GET IT TONIGHT. OF COARSE I WASN'T THINKING ABOUT THE FACT THAT I'M WORKING OUT HERE IN MONTANA- AND NOT TRADING IN MY TAHOE. ANYBODY FEEL LIKE DRIVING A TRUCK 2350mi. BACK TO DAYTONA FOR ME ???? SCREW IT , THERE WASN'T ANY WAY I WAS GIVING IT TO THEM FOR WHAT THEY OFFERED. SURE DID LIKE BUYING SOMETHING FOR 40K+ AND BEING TOLD ''WE DON'T HAVE A SALES TAX HERE!'' HOPEFULLY I WON'T GET JAMMED BACK IN FL.
