Should I buy a diesel truck for towing

Good morning. 

 
Huge fan of your YouTube channel. 
 
I had a question. Not sure if you could give me your input. 
 
I have just created a small construction LLC, in which I will be hauling light to medium size loads. 
 
I don't imagine I'll be hauling all the time, how ever I do imagine once or twice a month. 
 
I currently make around $70,000/year
 
Company is very new, but I do plan on growing. 
 
Think I should get the Diesel or Gas? 
 
Huge thanks on your input.

You don't need a diesel for towing a couple time per month. Maintenance is expensive.

Under 10,000 pounds, an HD diesel truck is not necessary.  The light duty diesels are a better option (especially the 3.0L Duramax, which is what I personally drive), but most people go with gas.

You don't mention budget, but basically I would go with the most reliable truck you can afford.  Maybe start with a 2014-2021 Tundra to get the business off the ground, then upgrade when the loads demand it.
