You would have to verify that the Predator is compatible with the computer on the medium duty trucks. I would think it is, but have no experience.
If nobody has run the Predator on a medium duty, I'd almost think he'd be better off with a harness box solution.

I would call edge and see what they say....another option would be a tts tow tune....Pat can enlighten you on that.....seems to be the way to go if towing and driveablity are your main goals..heck give tts a call.

I own several 7500 and I don’t think that the d-max is cut out for that big of a truck.
I have a 04 2500 and love the d-max in it, but I don’t think it should be put in the larger trucks.

I like the 4500's. I debated ordering a crew cab and putting the Long Box onto it. Decided it was too big for the driveway though lol.

Interesting. I saw some Chevy med-duty's on a dealer lot the other day and wondered how well the Dmax worked in them.

That Rig is BADASS!!!!!!!!!!! to say the least.
How big do you have to go to get the CAT motor in one of those? 7500?? 6500?? We have a Kodiak not sure what year but it has the six banger CAT in it and it will pull anything you can fit on it.

no, you cannot get 4x4 in the 6500-8500 series. unless you have alot of money and have monroe truck equipment convert it for you. davey
