So this is a bit of fantasizing going on in my head but I wanted to talk about deciding between speed and towing. I like the fact that I can use my camper special truck to tow things and maybe put a camper top on it, but I want it to be quite a bit faster and more of a performance truck as well when I'm not towing. Is this a reasonable expectation or do you usually have to decide between the two?
I think if I decided to do a pure performance truck at some point it would be cool to keep the camper special parts of it because that's part of what makes it unique. I.E mirrors, badges, bed dampers, tie downs etc.
Is the low gear ratio in the rear forgiving if I wanted to make it more of a performance truck. Is there a gear ratio that would be good for both towing small trailers and performance too?
This is all way in the future but it is fun to think about. I was kinda wondering if maybe anyone else has done something similar.
