    Upcoming trip, will report MPG

    Results are in. I ended up going a little further after the airport down into Anaheim before filling up and checking. A few things noticed, going thru the grape vine I stayed between 65-74mph and was around 10-12mpg. Lie-o-meter showed 20.3mpg and hand calculated came out to be 19.8mpg. Only .5...

    Please post your Tire and Loading sticker

    Yeah, you can put some stuff in the trailer, so long as you don't exceed ITS GVWR :D I always like a 20-25% margin between utilization and capacity, so even with a rating of 11,500 (my truck, with eTorque, has a 11,250lb tow capacity, according to RAM), I wouldn't go much past 8,500lbs. FWIW...

    Minimum Bora spacer

    If you have the capability/accessibility to remove a wheel, get a measurement of a wheel stud and you'll know for sure the exact minimum length you would need for 0 modification (i.e trimming studs). Also customoffsets.com has a list within there wheel spacer section stating what the "normal"...

    DraKhen99, thank you for your response, it is much appreciated. I do have a family (wife, 2 kids and 3 dogs), so I definitely have to keep an eye on my cargo (payload numbers). I also would for sure get a nice WDH. Question though, cant I disperse my cargo weight some and put more stuff in the...

    Here’s mine, still not 100% sure what my actual towing “max” is. Kind of a towing nubbie. But I do plan to tow a camper trailer in the future. Any input or help from the pros would be appreciated.

    Bedcover question?

    Thanks, looking for a less expensive option for a bed cover. Not that I was looking for the best of the best. Just a basic trifold.

    Lowered the rear 2" last night.

    Same if not slightly better then stock. I’ve always lifted my trucks so I’ve been used to a worse ride after mods. But I love the lowered level on this truck. I’m also happy to say that I’ve experienced a slight bump in mpg on the lieometer during normal cruising.

    What did you do to your Ram today???

    Gave my girl a spray off at the quarter wash. Rinse, soap spray, then rinse again. Took her home and wiped down with quick detailer to eliminate some of the water spots. Started a de badge process but didn’t finish unfortunately and she looks funny. It’ll be finished before the end of this long...

    Lowered the rear 2" last night.

    I would think factory wheels and tires, even 22s, because of the positive offset being so tucked would be fine. The factory 22s are 9.5” wide I believe.
