    Help...am I overloading my new 2020 1500?

    Probably, but without seeing a picture or you knowing how much weight you have back there, it is hard to say. But your Laramie only hauls about 1200-1400 including all passengers and cargo. Best thing to do is check your weight on a CAT scale.

    What did you do to your Ram today???

    Nothing like an early morning Luyed reverse lights install. This probably should have take an hour or so to install, but I gave myself a few issues due to my own stupidity. So three hours and a lot of not so nice words to myself later, I finally finished the install. Night and day difference!

    LUYED LED- New (Frugal) LED Reverse Light.

    I received these over the weekend, and finally got a chance to install them this morning. I am not very handy with electrical stuff and I chose to do a direct connection to the trailer wires with T-taps. The Curt connection option sounded great, but even after asking questions and getting more...

    LUYED LED- New (Frugal) LED Reverse Light.

    Thank you for all the info. If I were to use the T-tap method like the OP, should I be concerned about the small splice in the trailer harness wires if I were to remove these lights? Or would that be inconsequential if I were to put electrical tape over each wire, and then re-tape and loom the...

    LUYED LED- New (Frugal) LED Reverse Light.

    Anyone have a link to an actual step-by-step process for installing these? I want to do one on each side of the tow hitch, but man I'm scared of jacking this up. I understand the OP's way of T-tapping, but the part about using the curt harness is messing with my brain. I can look at the pictures...

    Power inverter capacity

    The RamBox outlet is almost pointless for running any power tool other than a corded dremel or charging a wireless speaker. Couldn't run my shop vac or my corded impact drill....the only two things I really would have liked it for so far.

    Air vs coil suspension

    Never had a vehicle with air suspension. So I guess I can't miss what I haven't had. The only reason I am considering adding air to the rear is for the towing aspect. I towed a 3600 lb car hauler empty and it would have squatted like crazy had I not used a WDH. I would expect some rear bags...

    Did I buy the wrong truck?

    Great, so I am not losing my mind. At least not in this case. I appreciate the confirmation.

    Did I buy the wrong truck?

    Please help me understand this. Where do you find this information? A Google search just took me to a bunch of questions about MDS. It is my understanding MDS is indicated not only by the change in exhaust note when driving, but also by the ECO light that comes on my infotainment center.

    Did I buy the wrong truck?

    I have eTorque and my MDS kicks on at really any speed I go from an acceleration to a coast. It doesn't matter the speed. I am not sure if it is regenerative braking I feel, but I do appreciate how secure the braking system makes me feel on this truck. Does all of this you are experiencing stop...

    Prayers for POTUS

    I love and support my Commander in Chief. This is a man who stands up for what is right, but not always popular. This is a man who is not afraid to call out the bad actors. This is a man who lives by the mantra Make America Great Again! This is a man I would gladly go to battle for!

    What did you do to your Ram today???

    I saw another user with this same mat. I went with the 4x8 universal from DeeZee and it helps to cover the tailgate as well.

    How many miles on your 5th Gen 1500?

    Got it in March this year. Approaching 3200 miles. Never been on the highway more than 20 minutes. Tow with it more than I ever thought I would. Been very fortunate so far. So yes I would purchase again, but definitely with 3.92 and bigger fuel tank.
