I’m estimating 1250-1275.

I avoid the tow/haul on the interstate as well, unless it’s hilly. I believe I get a little more mpg from not using it and I think it performs well. No problems with temps either. I have my hitch set to the lowest setting and had to run in Aero mode to get the trailer to be level. In Normal...

I’ve towed in Normal and Aero and see no difference in mpg. It’s just bad when towing a camper. 8.5 - 11 depending on conditions.

Made a trip from Orlando to Fort Lauderdale for an appointment, then eventually on to Miami to pick up some small furniture, then back to Orlando. Reset the lie-o-meter average mpg at the beginning of the trip. Set active cruise to 73 but traffic limited speed to 71 most of the way down. When...

Here’s a YouTube video of a 4th gen 2019 on the dyno running 4 pulls. Just found it interesting and at least somewhat relevant to the discussion. 1 stock 2 K&N cold air intake 3 K&N + muffler delete 4 K&N + muffler delete + pulsar

Mine stayed on initially, but after a trip to the dealer for an oil change it came loose. I used this to secure it... 3M Black Super Weatherstrip and... https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00063X38M?ref=ppx_pop_mob_ap_share Take the weatherstrip off, run a TINY bead of this around the edge. Then wait...

Even though the eco diesel gets 7200 GVWR in 4x4 trim, the diesel weighs 140 more than the non-eTorque hemi which has 7100 GVWR. So it will typically have 40 less payload. On the other hand, if you compare the diesel to the eTorque hemi (~80 pounds heavier than the non-eTorque) the diesel will...

The good news is that your truck has a good payload number. You’ve done your calculations and expect to stay within that. You’ll also likely stay within your GCWR of 13900 if you load reasonably. The 5.7 and 3.21 should provide enough power. My concern would be the length. 33+ feet of tall...

When it comes to payload on a half-ton it’s all about the options. The sticker on my Longhorn is 1479. Very well equipped (see my signature for the options I ordered). Got everything I wanted and nothing I didn’t. Avoided most of the heavy options for the Longhorn trim except the 33gal fuel...

3.21/3.92 have NOTHING to do with PAYLOAD (the weight of passengers, cargo, tongue weight you can put in/on your truck). The 3.92 does have about 3000lb higher MAXIMUM TOW RATING (how much weight the truck can tow). Two completely different things. In the real world you are much more likely...

Totally satisfied with more than a year of ownership and 16k miles. No trips to the dealer other than oil changes. Even gets the rated mpg or better. No issues but I did do the AC hack. 94 degrees here today and wife took the truck shopping. Her unprompted comment - ‘Boy that truck has cold...

In my experience towing travel trailers (3500 miles towing on the 2019 and 12000 miles towing with a 2015) the transmission is very well cooled from the factory. The transmission temperatures just don’t rise much, even on long grades. Engine oil temperature is a different story. It’s...

You are mistaken. Just as an example, the day after I took delivery of my truck I drove to a nearby truck stop. Filled the tank with fuel and weighed it at the cat scale. The GVWR minus the scaled weight matched the door payload sticker (within 20 lbs, the cat scales weigh in 20lb increments). I...

The payload numbers reflect a FULL tank of fuel. This is one of the reasons that opting for the 33 gallon fuel tank results in a 73 lb payload reduction. About half of that weight is the weight of the additional fuel.

Not true. There is no allowance in PAYLOAD for driver/passengers. Payload is based on the weight of the truck itself, factory installed options and full fluids (including fuel). Anything/anyone you add to the truck will reduce the remaining available payload. I think the confusion comes from...

Not true. Payload does NOT include ANY allowance for driver/passengers, it does include a full tank of fuel though.

There’s NO allowance for the driver in the payload sticker. Just the truck itself, including factory options, and a full tank of fuel. Anything or anyone you put in the truck reduces the remaining available payload. Here are some option weights for the Limited trim; Limited trim - 166lbs Bed...

I’ve had my valve completely closed, other than 2 months of Florida winter, since install last year. No issues, complete comfort. Drops vent temps about 10-12 degrees. Just do it.

By far the biggest advantage of the 3.92 will be getting that load moving from a stop. The 3.92 will give 20% more torque at the wheels in first gear. There may be other slight advantages in engine braking, having an additional usable gear and working the transmission a little less when...
