    Tow hitch in a an accident

    Was in an accident once where a midsize SUV we rear ended a truck with a tow hitch in. THe truck's tow hitch was long enough that it went through the bumper and pierced the radiator, assuming it hit some cross member which stopped the suv from moving any further into the truck. Truck had no...

    Tonneau Cover Pics

    It's double sided tape. I believe it's the same type they use on other car parts to adhere to the truck, think emblems, body strips etc. I believe the magnets are to ensure the retainer arms from the cover don't just pop off. The tape is more for the mount to the truck itself.

    Tonneau Covers in Short Supply?

    It's only been a few days since it has been on. But being here in the Midwest we have gone the spectrum in weather: 60's, snow, freezing rain, etc. Installation: Really easy installation for one person. Even with my redos (see below) it took about 35 minutes. I have the RamBox so I had to...

    Tonneau Covers in Short Supply?

    First trip towing. First impressions and MPG

    Yes, anything over "x weigh" requires trailer brakes here in Kansas/Missouri. I wouldn't want to tow without them to tell you the truth. Our HIKE trailer is about 4300 dry and I find that the electric light trailer setup on the truck is the most appropriate setting. The electric heavy was...

    The truck looks so much more at home compared to the Cayenne.
