Probably either a Ford or Dodge diesel would be a good choice- But try for a one ton rather than 3/4 ton. We had an '85 Ford F350 diesel, and it rode very comfortably. Now have a '95 F250 Powerstroke- no complaints except the ride- its too stiff, and you can sure feel it after several hundred miles. As of tomorrow, will have a '99 Dodge 3500- and it rides like the old Ford did. It has "overload" springs, plus a heavier "booster" leaf in the bottom of the regular spring pack- enabling a good ride when unloaded.
