    Input on towing setup

    And for those of us with the Off Road Group, that much taller... :confused: Or will it go into Aero mode while towing?

    Input on towing setup

    I was just reading through the manual myself and it stated to place the vehicle in 'Normal' mode first, then place truck in Jack Mode. And I agree this is a great conversation....

    Thanks @riccnick... I love how convoluted and cryptic this is... it's like they don't really want to put out anything so they can't held liable or something... ;)

    Input on towing setup

    People like their comforts I reckon! Anyway two questions for whomever. In reading through the AS Manual it states that the WD hitch shifts 1/3rd of the hitch weight onto each axle. If that is the case, then a 800lb hitch weight is actually only 528lbs on the truck... or am I understanding...

    Thanks for the input @YoAdrian. I think I found a 25RB to rent for a test run (has a higher hitch weight than the 27FB which makes no sense to me).

    I mis-read your comment about exceeding payload / GCVW. I thought I read that you are good so long as you do not exceed GCVW. If at/near payload and the WD shifts more weight onto your truck then you would be exceeding your GVWR without exceeding payload, no?

    Husky X-Act Contour mats

    I'll check my mats when I get home, but I don't recall seeing that much of a bulge (if any) in the center. And FWIW, I prefer the Husky over the MOPAR as it goes over the sill plate.

    Eco mode not turning on on highway?

    I haven't seen my light come on on anything over 50-55 unless I'm going downhill...

    Reverse tilt mirror(s)?

    It *really* needs to be customizable... for me they just tilt way too low to be useful.

    Please post your Tire and Loading sticker

    LOL! I'm new there and trying to be nice, but that post is not at all relevant to your request. What I find interesting is that he didn't post the trim levels... a lightly optioned truck will get you a high payload regardless of manufacturer. I'm planning on renting something close to the...

    That sounds like a cool offer.. but a bit of a drive from Florida! Exactly this... and people simply repeat what they are told.... if it is correct, then great but apparently this guy has different ideas and they seem to work.

    Cap/topper options

    Yeah... I'm thinking a Z will work just fine, getting tired of waiting myself.

    Cap/topper options

    I've only seen pics online...haven't seen one on any truck. The frameless rear glass follows the curve on the lip on of the tailgate to give it a more SUV look. Th Z comes straight down and has a plastic piece that goes over the lip.

    Input on towing setup

    Ah yes... the old YOU ARE ALL GONNA DIE mantra to keep people in line. I've seen this tossed around often, has any one provided verifiable evidence that this has been done and what were the circumstances surrounding the incident. And in most forums people are just regurgitating the same line...

    My 6'4" bed was a must... huge compared to my 2005 Dakota!

    Interstate driving was only if we had to... I'd rather take the back roads, generally more interesting things to see...

    Input on towing setup

    Airstream 27FB. Base Weight is 5,868 GVWR is 7600 Hitch Weight is 791 (includes 2-30# LP tanks and two batteries) 791 lbs is 10% of 7600 which is the GVWR... or am I reading all this incorrectly?
