we live in the dfw area and typically tow to lake murray, ok (95m) and to wright patman near texarkana (240m). last year we towed to Big Bend (570m) and Palo Duro (360m) for the farthest trips. I see some folks do about 300m per day..have not considered that yet. the run down to Big Bend didnt...
certainly the numbers have confused me. I weighed mine at CAT scale and got 5960#. if I subtract me: 222#, the 20# of emergency gear I keep under the back seat and 120# for the 1/2 tank of fuel I had at the time, I get 5598# for the empty truck. that theoretically would give me 1502# of...
certainly everyone likes something different, but I am happy with the '19 laramie I have. it far and away handles better and is more fun to drive than the '17 gmc sierra that I traded in. I dont care what the ridgeline owner said, the truck seems to have plenty of get up and go for a pickup and...
wireless charging not standard equipment. in my past trucks I could just toss my android phone on the console and it would charge..now I have to plug in a cable and have that dangling around till done...also no sd card slot ..also I cant get the fog lights to work if I have on the headlights. I...
we did 3400 miles in mid september from ft. worth to axtec/durango, moab, salt lake city, jackson hole/yellowstone, sheridan and back down I-25/287 to home. got as much as 21.6 between yellowstone to cody and thru the big horn mountains to sheridan. hit high winds from amarillo to wichita falls...
I have been looking at toy haulers and seems like anything with a slide-out will max out my 1500 and be longer than I want to pull. our freedom express 246rks is 28' and is at about 6000# when we tow. I only have 1324# cargo cap. and dont see many toy haulers that wont be over my max. if I want...
I turned mine off early on because a cpl. times it slammed on the brakes when I was in traffic. I use the old fashioned method of looking out the front window while driving and applying the brakes as needed.
I made sure mine had a cd player. a deal breaker for me. that and rear a/c. I have serius xm but I also like to toss in a few old favorite cd's when I travel. dont care if it's old tech. also still have a real nice turntable at home to play the 350 or so albums I have kept over the years. the...
the yellow sticker on mine shows 1324# cargo capacity. when I had mine weighed at cat scale it weighed 5960# with me and 1/2 tank of gas, so 7100#-5960#= 1140 left for cargo and passengers.
I'd look for something in the 5000# area because after you stow the bike and some gear you will be up near 7000# when on the road. a lot depends on your towing style. I like to set cruise at 69-70 so as not to incur as much road rage from others, so the amount of work the motor does and my...
I never noticed what gear mine gets up to but I often see about 1975 -2000 rpms so I think it gets into 8th. I even see the eco light sometimes on flat roads at 69-70 ish. my trailer is 6000#
your 1500 ram with 3.21's will struggle to pull a trailer that heavy with the additional wt. of the bike and gear. mine with the 3.92's works plenty hard pulling my 6000# travel trailer and we pack as light as we can when towing. I wanted a toy hauler to camp in and carry my harley ultra but...
