Yes wish we had that option with the ED. With only 26 gallons 350 miles is about it.

Picture taken at the CAT scale this boat was just under 9k & 15,800 CVW if memory serves me. Triple axle trailer built for the boat 10 percent tongue weight it trailered great. I only tow at 65 but had to take it over some 6 percent grades. No electric trailer brakes only surge brakes so I was...

I am guessing Somebody’s been racing that one around town. No I have a 2014 with 640,000 miles.

Bubba I bet you were not towing travel trailers for a living when you got rid of that ole 5.9. :)

Willow makes complete sense to me for someone who’s truck is primarily recreational. I have an ole Buick Grand National. I keep her wicked up to hot rod around in. Under boost she drinks it like any big block hot rod. I don’t care because I’m only in it when I have time & money for. It’s about...

Perhaps not in Cali or PA where state governments have exorbitant taxes put on diesel. Then again if you are using it for towing a lot it still pans out pretty well both in fuel savings and longevity. DEF at 2.69 gallon from the pump and 8 gallon tank lasting me 10k miles thats $21.56 for 10k...

Well I was asking if you knew the same info with respects to the 2020 ED transmission. Its fine that you don't. As to the engine. My actual long term ownership experience is that most of its problems are emissions system driven and can be dealt with. And that the engine & transmission...

Great job Jack. What differences are their transmission wise with respects to the 2020 Ecodiesel vs like what you have shown here with the Hemi? I am sure generally the results 3.21 vs 3.92 play out the same but probably not exactly with respects to what speeds which final drive ratio has the...

I transport TTs (mostly Airsteams) & boats for a living with a 1500 ED. 640k miles so some experience. I'm not very interested in the payload sticker number. I am much more interested in scale slip numbers for the actual safety and stability of tow set up. You need to replace your unloaded...

I would have liked to have done my very first at 1k but work took me on cross country trip before I got that done so it ended up being 10k. My dealership used to charge $125 for ED. T6 bought on routine sales & 10k rated filters bought through Rock Auto always brings self change costs to $60-65.

Myles what a great time we live in when we can get that kind of mileage out of a full size 4wd truck. And it’s no slouch and tows 1/2 ton appropriate loads fantastically well and fuel efficiently. The economy of thats reads slightly better than my 4th gen 3.92 ED. But wait that is with both...

371,000 she pushed a head gasket. Failed government mandated EGR cooler leaked coolant which comes out the tail pipes so no leak is seen. Low coolant lead to hot spots steam & pressure which appears to have pushed the head gasket. If you can’t do a tune & a permanent fix IE EGR cooler delete...

Bet it looks clean as new. You can pull your dipstick and run it across your finger and you will know.

Some people want to get the initial metal & components wear out of their motor for fear of it circulating around in their oil causing unnecessary wear.

Seaeco 3.21 on 20s? Might hurt in town mileage.

If his scale slip says he in not over his axles or GVWR then he should be safe stable & reliable with that 5th wheel and his 1500 for miles and miles and miles. If it hurt your narrative that no "1/2 ton" has any business towing any 5er than thats your problem and it doesn't sound like he is...

Cannonball redistribute what you have loaded in that boat and get your TW back up to 10 percent and not only will your drive tires have more traction to pull her up the ramp but will likely solve your sway as well. (granny first gear of the 8 speed is great to walk her up the ramp) This pic is...

That puts you at 11.8 to 15.2% IE should be good. All four trailer tires about the same psi? Similar weight side to side? Can be checked by putting each side on a scale separately. No tires wearing funny? IE truck or trailer. If jacked up all four trailer tires roll the same no bad bearings...

Drive both the 3.92 & the 3.21. Most like the 3.92 so much better that they pick it over the 3.21 despite knowing unloaded they will lose a bit of mileage on the highway. It is a long sail but using a well set up WDH with built in sway control and keeping to 65 you should have no issues. At...

I tow TTs for a living with a half ton diesel Ram. To the tune of 600k plus miles. With 6k TT all you should need is a well set up WDH ideally with built in sway control. Sometimes I overload it by also putting a Harley fuel tools etc in the bed others often do it with firewood beverage coolers...
