Compressor isn’t necessary but nice if have an extra $400. Use them for a heavy bed load or as a great compliment to a WDH. They really help to support dampen & control the rear suspension when towing a heavy load and you hit rough uneven pavement such as the inside of many curves. However...

Well if the 5th gen has a longer wheelbase that might make a notable difference. The main thing with towing stability is in the setting up of tongue & axle weights with your WDH & other weight distribution. This is concretely do-able with a CAT scale. If you just hook your camper up blindly...

Well Doc if rumor/goal is right order by March 30 & receive by June. Hoping Allpar or this site has more leaks about the ED soon. If not likely see some announcement in January. I procrastinated 6 months for the 8 speed then waited a year for the ED. Looking back it wasn't so bad and since I...

The Airstream was a 30' floorplan Classic at 7,600 pounds. I've since moved 33 Classics to 8,700 pounds. Truck is rated to tow 8,800. The 33' floorplan Forrest River Wildcat Maxx had 3 slides and weighed 9,086 and the boat about 9k with a bedload of four rims and tires plus tools. CVW on the...

Yeah I never got the extra cost of maintenance except that some dealerships raped their customers on the cost of oil and fuel filter changes. When mine was new I had the dealership change my oil for $120 plus tax. Since then I change my own with T6 which with filter cost about $65. Like...

They have had a higher than acceptable failure rate. Sure duty cycle and maintenance matter but it still largely seems to be either a you got a good one or you didn't. Fortunately they are covered for 100k not 60 and replaced with a new engine plus balance of warranty or available full warranty...

Welcome. Very cool. Sorry no info here as to your questions. Has the Hemi had any major repairs? Agreed my high mile 4th gen is still solid smooth no squeaks leaks electrical gremlins etc. Ram did good & im looking forward to the 5th

I’m sure Lawman is gone but I want to reply as many will read this thread. My suggestion for your use is to consider the Pentastar. Competitive mileage & better value than the comparable Ford IMO and yes less money. Current diesel emissions systems are not ideal for daily short commute. Thanks...

Reliability has been good. At least IMO & relative to how it’s been worked. I bought a GDE tune to turn off EGR & better manage regens. Think that’s helped a lot with both longevity & emissions. Also bought cheap easy 2 button Bosch OBD 1000 scan tool to read & clear codes. This allows you to...

Hey all great looking new forum. Briefly my scoop I bought a 14 Ram ED ended up contracting to deliver Airstreams then other TTs & boats taking them from the Mfgs to dealerships nationwide. Normally you would select an HD diesel but as I already had it and AS are only bumper pulls its worked...
