    Official Delmonico Red thread

    how did the lane assist make it sway a bit ?? i would think your payload sticker should say something like 1250 # so i guess you can not haul many toys and be legal

    Auto high beams are useless

    i do not think they work very well, they reflect off all the signs around here and are constantly high/low/high/low ... now i just set my headlight switch to auto and i have placed a cover over the sensor on the dash .... this makes the headlights manual but when i shut off the engine the...

    IF you look at my signature and Fuelly numbers on my wife's truck, you can see what to expect on a Laramie Sport 3.92

    Input on towing setup

    i do NOT agree with your tandem theory when applied to TT, the biggest majority of the larger TT (above 20' TT) have tandem axles and they receive the most complaints about sway and push by big rigs. i also towed a 6500# boat many times to the Del. bay and because the boat was carried by the...

    Please post your Tire and Loading sticker

    looks like your truck weight (5033) is without driver and some gas .. but the door sticker is what the legal payload is no matter what you come up with

    I left Toyota for RAM

    2009 i traded my 2005 Dodge 2500 HD with 138,000 miles on our first of many Tundra TRDs mainly because i could not find an honest Dodge dealer around here ... loved the Tundras ... never had ANY problems, but was an outcast with our Chrysler family ... now my wife and i have traded out TRDs for...

    Am I ok?

    were did you get the payload of 1780#s ?? what is the TT GVWR (max loaded weight) ?? how long is the TT ?? does the family of 4 include YOU ?? how is the Ram equipped ?? there are several other threads you could get into and then many others will all have an opinion, BUT you have to figure out...

    Input on towing setup

    i guess this "overweight" issue is more important to me because, you see years ago i worked at a blacktop mfg plant and i saw trucks brought to the scales for probable overweight and it is not pretty ... weight cops just do not write out a ticket when they find you are overweight, you have to...

    Does the entire WD Hitch count against capacity

    i have NOT been to a campground since 1988 .. we boondock ... look at my signature below for "my truck" ... our current TT is a 2018 Keystone Passport 2520RL ... the Loaded TT wight is 7500#s ... at 10% that makes the tongue weight approx 750 #s .. "my trks" payload is 1577 #s ... leaving a net...

    Air Suspension payload?

    i hate to keep throwing zingers into discussions, BUT, i compared the window stickers for our 2019 Rams with the Build sheets and there are MAJOR differences and i do not mean between trks, i mean between window stickers and build sheets based on VIN for that trk .. SO, it is a little hard to...

    A Comprehensive Guide to Towing with the 2019 RAM 1500 - Everything You Need to Know!

    i bet ya when you look at the door sticker is will not say 1840 #s. when i open Mopar.com and look at my truck it say "payload 1840 #" but my door sticker says "payload not to exceed 1577 #s" ... just one more way for FCA to confuse ALL of us ... AND i know all the MFGs are no better, but that...
