Go with a GMC 3500 Duramax with the Allison transmission. That tranny is invincible... It's the same one they use in many dump trucks, buses, and other heavy equipment.
Depending on the year, the Ford is great too, but it's going to get worse fuel economy than the GMC. We get 18mpg with our 2500 while pulling a 26ft horse trailer

For the Ford the year will be between 99-04,depence for the price and milage... Can you maybe tell me arround how many miles i should expect tranny to break??? Because i dont known nothing about trucks is like 200K is it lots of miles for trucks or not??? What i heard thats usually arround 200K you will need to change tranny??

I don't konw about the ford tranny's, but Allison transmissions do not break.
2001 Duramax 350,000miles. Original tranny (Not allison), flushed twice.
2004 Duramax dually 596,000 miles. Original tranny(allison).
2006 Duramax 100,000 miles original tranny (Allison) Hasn't been heard from yet.
Just a few examples. Its is undoubtedly one of the most reliable, well built, and heavy duty transmissions on the road. I believe that there is even two pto ports on the housing itself for heavier duty applications.
