    I only recommended the 3.7 as an instant reliability improvement over any Isuzu engine. Plus a much cheaper option. I myself have no need for a 300hp engine (although it would be nice).

    Makes sense. Although it looks like you need a lift & some bigger tires on that trailer

    True but other than some oil consumption, my 3.5L has been reliable (the engine will now blow up tomorrow)

    Knock on wood.
