I agree that while it can be done , I would be limiting what and who I take with me. I looked today at a 2500 and it have over 3000# payload....almost double my 1500.

I guess I better start looking at 2500's.

so if I reduce the occupant weight to 320, hitch is really 80#, one battery and one propane tank on trailer and bump up to a 12000# hitch the numbers should work.....I have the helwig sway bar already and need new rubber so I can go with e-rated tires.

If I drop the occupants to myself and the wife its only 320 lbs and when the toy hauler get a load wont some of the tongue weight shift rearward as well as the hitch taking some away?

Here are some more accurate details.... the trailer is 25' minus tongue (28.5' total) 5000 lbs dry, hitch weight of 850. I will use a blue ox 1000 pro WDH. As far as weight in the truck goes 330 to 700 lbs of occupants, 50 lb tonneau and maybe 100lbs misc. cargo. Trailer load will vary but I'd...

no brake contro yet but I have one I can install, up to four full size adults, no real gear in truck, hard tonneau.....only thing on door jamb sticker is GVRW 7100

I have a 2020 Ram 1500 CC shortbed sport Laramie 4x4 3:21... want to tow a toy hauler 28' and 7000 lb loaded...other than a good weight distribution hitch will I need anything else?

on my 2020 laramie sport 4x4 if I use the 5100 to level the front do I need to re align the front end after install?

Being in Florida I started to feel the AC was under performing so I did the hack by installing an in line pecs valve on the water line leading to the heater core and guess what, It made a HUGE difference! Now the truck cools down quickly. These trucks absolutley have a blend door issue and when...

you should take into account the weight f your new tires as heavier tires will affect mileage in a negative way.

Did the larger tires throw off the speedometer reading?

I see on window stickers for 2020 Rams "engine calibration flash $1495, what is this???

Sometimes when I just want fresh air thru the cabin I turn the fan speed on 1 or 2 and get ice cold AC? no ac lights are on but it is blowing too cold to be outside air? What am I doing wrong.

I installed a roll up toneau cover on my short bed Laramie CC today, a switchblade by pace Edwards. I like it!

I think its the gearing, my brand new 2020 Ram got 20.4 on the way home from the dealer , hiway 70-75 mph. I have 3.21 axle CC 4x4 Laramie sport.
