I had a 8.1 with a Allison in my Chevy '30 foot class C motor. If I was towing my
16' box trailer loaded with motorcycles or race karts it would get better gas mileage AND go up hills better than my dads 30' motor-home with fords V10.
My 5.3 Chevy Silverado has 185k and the thing has been ABUSED. It's hauled trailers way over it's tow rating. Dirt roads, teen drivers, my extended family everyone has driven this truck. If the motor popped today I would toss in a 6.0
Why are you looking at 4x4? will you use it?
I would love to have a 2500 with the 8.1 now that I'm not driving 40k miles a year.
