    Nice van 👍 I've owned 7 vans in my time. 4 Ford's, 3 Dodges and the last one was an 03 5 passenger. The Chevy was my favorite hands down. This video made me miss it more ✌

      Theres a UA-camr that sold his 6.0 express because he said it sucks at towing.
      So i chose the 6.6. Express instead.
      It can do 10,000 lbs

      @@D_Cali_Life The 6.0 doesn't suck at towing. People that don't know what they're doing thinking that it sitting high up the rpm band is somehow bad for it. Take care of them and they'll live longer than any current diesel pickup engine. Don't be afraid of the rpms either, that's where the power is and they were designed to be there.
