    Service Electronic Throttle Control Warning

    I had this same scenario for the second time this past weekend. First time was in July 2021 at about 10,000 miles. Towing 5K travel trailer on a brutally hot day. Service electronic throttle message followed by loss of power. It lurched, then power returned to normal. Check engine light stayed...

    I just did this setup. Towing 5500# dry wt camper, I still had slight sag without the bags, even when the adjusted weight distribution numbers checked out. After Timber Grove bags installed, I added 7psi and readjusted the EazLift Trekker hitch. Sag is eliminated. Trailer is level. Weight...

    Does the 1500 tow group come with 4 tpms?

    My 2021 Big Horn came with them. I didn't find that out until I found them in the rear seat floor storage compartment.

    Official thread for pictures of Ram towing campers

    Took this while setting up my WDH. Added Timber Grove ASAMs and trying to dial it in before a trip to Napa this coming weekend. Went to the scales and it checks out (albeit over trailer GVWR by a bit less than 300lb). Drives and feels very good to me. Camper is a 2020 Lance 2285 Weighs 5489 dry...

    Too much for a half ton truck?

    Your Limited will never be worth more than it is now. If you plan to eventually go 2500/3500, I'd look seriously into trading or selling to upgrade now.

    ecodiesel driving experience

    I came to my Ecodiesel from an 06 Tacoma 4.0 V6. The Tacoma had the legendary Toyota reliability, it was a great vehicle for us. It towed and stopped our 22' camper (4K dry weight) pretty well, but averaging 8-9 mpg with a 20 gallon tank (18 mpg avg not towing). On two towing trips of about 300...

    Need brake controller

    I have a Tekonsha Prodigy P2 controller that I’m not using. My Ram has the factory one. To be honest, the Prodigy setup gave a bit more in the way of adjustability. If you’re interested please feel free to pm me...

    "3.8 Additional Gallons of Diesel"?

    Thank you, Richard. That makes sense. It just seemed very vague to me. And 3.8 gallons instead of 4? That doesn't make as much sense. I appreciate your response. Cheers 🍻

    "3.8 Additional Gallons of Diesel"?

    Hi there. This is my first post but just reading the boards here has taught me a good deal about my new 2021 Ram 1500 Big Horn 3.0 Ecodiesel. My question is, what does the term "3.8 Additional Gallons of Diesel" listed on my build sheet actually mean? My truck, according to the build sheet, is...
