    Towing capacity confusion???

    I think too that most people overlook the fact that those running boards you installed, your tonneau cover, the tools you stuffed under the rear seat, the napkins in the glove box, the spouse/kids/dog, the beer cooler, and the WDH itself ALL count against your cargo(Payload) number...this is why...

    nitto ridge grapplers on 2021 ram 1500

    The member (name escapes me) that does the youtube series about high mileage 1500 was running those for a while. I found this video, should help you out.

    Increasing Payload in RAM 1500 with air suspension?

    Did the limited have the flip up towing mirrors? That undoes the ability to have the 360 cameras. (I'm not 100% certain this applies to Limiteds, but I know it did with Laramie Level2 packages in 2019)

    Only In Florida... Man drives Ram truck in Ocean

    Go do track days....It'll make you never want to ride on the street again. and it'll melt your credit card ;)

    The link says a "New York man" So he's obviously a future Floridian ;) It also notes New Smyrna Beach...

    Increasing Payload in RAM 1500 with air suspension?

    As they ☝️ said....there is no such thing as increasing payload, and you surely can't do it by adding stuff to your truck. Rebels are known for lousy payload ratings, so I hate to say it, but maybe the Rebel isn't your best bet. No good answers here.

    Ready to buy...but have some questions

    Guess I'm keeping my "Wednesday" truck too..2019 Laramie with 125K miles and have only had the third brake light leak and one of the manifolds cracked (just inside CPO warranty thankfully). Otherwise it's been the best truck I've owned...even with the 12" screen and lots of other goodies. (Yes...

    Whats in your Ram bins?

    My truck came with the those "locking" lugnuts, or whatever they're called, so I keep the adapter tool in one, along with a couple spare lugnuts (they put the original 4 extras in there). I keep gloves and a safety green vest in that same bin. In the other I keep one of those drawbars wtih two...

    Non- uconnect remote start?

    Great info, thanks fellas! I've not seen that offer, but thats probably because I'm already a customer. That may have to change.

    Towing the new camper

    Yeah, I can see the tradeoffs for sure, but man the notion of doing what you're doing just has such attraction. Still a maybe in our minds.

    Towing the new camper

    Great stuff. Getting any road weariness yet or just keep wanting more time in the RV?

    Considering a Ram 1500, but concerned about reliability... New to 5GenRam

    I'm at 123K miles on my 2019. It still looks like new inside and out and has no rattles either! SAME! I LOVE this truck! Runs and drives like a champ! Other than maintenance and upgrades the only things I've ever had to do were the third brake light gasket and one cracked manifold. It...

    RAM 1500 owners...Tell me the pros and cons. I'm trying to decide which pickup to buy. Edit: I bought a '24 RAM 1500 Limited! Yippee!

    No degradation whatsoever in my opinion. Tighter cornering with less yaw/roll is the result. And as Silver Bullet said, there are zero additional mods needed. Some prefer to replace the swaybar links, but I've not found that necessary at all. I've not yet tried the highest setting...I'll...

    And if you want a quantum leap in handling...Hellwig rear sway bar, set to medium setting.

    Antifreeze smell

    Between my last grand cherokee and this ram 1500 I've got 351,000miles and counting. I've had the smell the entire time, no issues, no leaks.

    I have the full BedRug and cannot recommend it highly enough, at least for similar use to mine. I haul EVERYTHING right on the rug. It sweeps, vacuums, and/or sprays right out. When I haul mulch, and the occasional deer, I simply lay a 6x8 tarp in the bed. I've never had a reason to remove...

    I believe you mentioned towing a camper? If so, just be mindful of your payload. With all those options it's going to be pretty limited, no pun intended! I hear you on the trifold, however I've run a soft cover trifold since 2007 with no issues whatsoever, but I am of course mindful that...

    Congratulations! Assuming you got the power running boards (you'll come to LOVE them) and the Advanced Safety Group with the adaptive cruise control. I think you'll love that too! BTW, I'm late to the party but I've got a '19 Laramie (highly optioned) and I freakin LOVE it, even with 122K...
