It makes for a great tow vehicle. Too bad it was only ever available in the 1/2 tons.
My brother in-law had it on his 1500HD. I would'nt call that a 1/2 ton.
The 1500HD is unofficially known as a "Heavy-Half", but it is still considered a 1/2 ton, even though its GVWR is only around 600# less than the 2500HD. But that IS 1/4 of a ton when you think about it.
Quadrasteer - I stand corrected - did a bit of research and found it WAS offered on 2500 crew cabs. Here is that link.
The article also talks about how the cost varied as time went on.
The 1500hd and the 2500 are the same truck, sans badges. This excludes the 2500hd, that is significantly different than the 2500/1500hd. I'm with ya on the heavy 1/2 thing, its just that your link states "2500" not "2500hd".
Personally I consider the 1500hd and 2500ld 3/4ton trucks and the 2500HD more like a heavy 3/4 ton.
BTT my B.I.L. like it alot, he just wanted a D/A for his future plans and sold his 03.

ShockerGEEk,
This has been asked a few times before and I reply the same way each time. I've got one, and I freakin' love it!!! I tow heavy (up to 10,000 lbs) and often with it too. Some of my previous comments in different threads about it.
