on the highway at 75-78 cruise I get up to 21.5 sometimes..usually around 20. pulling my 28'x 6000# travel trailer at 68-70 I get 8.5-11 depending on the terrain.
mine has ORP and 4wheel auto. I use it when on the highway during heavy rain or icy/snow covered roads. works really well. have only used 4hi when off main road in snow up to running boards.
I have similar truck and pull a freedom express 246RKS..28' long and around 6000# when towing. my truck only has 1324# cargo cap. so I pack light. I set cruise for 68-70 and get 8.5-10 depending on the terrain. these trucks pull great and have very good brakes. I use a WDH and put a little more...
my trailer puts about 600# on the hitch. it is a Husky WDH and the truck rear end goes down about an inch when I hook on the trailer. trailer is 28' travel trailer about 6000# when towing
I usually get 8.5-10 ish pulling our 6000# travel trailer with cruise set on 68-69 and truck loaded for the weekend... that is over terrain that is not very hilly..I have got 11.5 before on flat road at that speed...dont think I have the temperment for going much slower. I get passed by 1500's...
I have a cpl. harleys..a wide glide and an ultra. the wife and I like to load up the ultra and ride from dfw up to northern new mexico and colorado every now and then.
ya there are a cpl. long pulls in that area. uphill all the way for us..Ft. Worth area is about 650" ASL. we ski at Taos or Red River every year and have looked at buying property in NM for many years but have just not found the right place yet. might at some point get some land up there and put...
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...
