The 6.0 will pull, and they love their revs while doing so. Dad had a 6 liter, he pulled his 27' 5th wheel all over the U.S. with it. It got about 6-7 miles/gallon on most trips. He's not a hot rodder either, about 60 mph on the freeway pulling his 5th wheel or empty. Best he ever did with it was 13 mpg, that was empty, freeway driving. Pulled an IH combine home to Michigan from Indianapolis In, about 300 miles. Had about a 30 mph north wind on the way home. It was right at 13'4" high, like a giant wall behind the truck. I don't think the tach dropped below 3500 rpm the entire trip home, got just a touch over 4 mpg lol. Not real fuel efficient, but a 6.0 would pull what you need. Dad bought a Duramax after he sold that truck, loves it. I can't make the decision for you, just give you some points for reasoning with yourself in your decision.

Cylinders are the reason for the hydraulic circuit. They take the fluid power delivered from the pump and magically change it into mechanical power. There are many types of cylinders that one might run across on a farm scenario. Each one could take a chapter in
