Ive had both trucks and now have a duramx diesel, but, towing mileage will be about the same with both trucks and the 6.0 has more power than an old 454 but nothing like the power and lugging ability of the 8.1. To fix ride quality on the chevy 2500 just put on a set of Bilstein replacement shocks. Will ride 100 times better. My factory shocks were bad within 10,000 miles of new.
