Bmosbacker,
Glad to hear from you again! I would suggest getting the Big Tow package. Generally, if something is not too expensive, I go ahead and get it. I would much rather have something and not use it often than have a dire need for something and don't have it. The Big Tow package is only $850.00. In the future you may want to tow something heavy. You may have a friend that buys a heavy boat or travel trailer and to share costs on an outing one of you might supply the truck and the other the RV. The truck will last you a long time and who knows what kind of toy you might want years from now. (right now I have the hots for a party barge) Also, the Big Tow package will help your resale. Another thing that gets my crawl; I HATE most of the aftermarket trailer hitches. They look real boxy, too much of the hitch shows, trailer wires show, etc. I know you can spend extra money to get past this, but most people don't want to because they've skimped on not getting it at time of purchase so they skimp again with aftermarket stuff.
