While 6,500 lbs is less than half the Cummins’ maximum tow rating, it is at the limit for towing without a load-distributing hitch. Whereas I had been averaging an expected 14.0 L/100 km unladen (with tonneau cover), this three-ton load only ticked the Cummins’ thirst up to a modest 16 L/100 km. Pulling a ~6,500 lb (gross) load of Lada parts and redneck junk in a dump trailer, the Cummins is altogether unbothered. Refocusing after all of that window dressing, this slow, lumbering pickup is built with a core focus on towing very heavy things from one place to another. All tallied, this truck comes in at $106,775 before freight and fees. Piling even more in is a $3,095 equipment group, including digital rearview mirror, lane-keep and forward-collision assists, adaptive steering, adaptive cruise control, 360º camera view, and adequately-premium 17-speaker audio. Stepping things up are a $1,995 appearance package ($2k for all black - super original), $2,155 6-speed automatic transmission, $7,295 Cummins diesel engine, $1,595 rear auto–levelling air suspension, and a $525 rear limited-slip differential. ![]() This advertisement has not loaded yet, but your article continues below. ![]()
