    Diesel Fuel vs Aviation JP-4 Jet Fuel

    That's what I'll probably do. I was concerned about the lack of lubricating properties that are probably characteristic of the JP-4 fuel. At first I was thinking of adding maybe a little at a time (to my new 50-gallon aux tank) and let it get well mixed but I doubt if I will. I have about 30...

    Diesel Fuel vs Aviation JP-4 Jet Fuel

    A friend had some leftover fuel they had kept for emergency use during hurricane Michael a couple of years ago. They told me it was aviation 100LL fuel for piston engines which is what I needed for my little airplane. I figured they knew better since they used to work at the local airport and...

    Using truck's charging system for your fifth-wheel

    Thanks. I just found it a few minutes ago and posted essentially the same question there as well.

    Using truck's charging system for your fifth-wheel

    I need to apologize. I guess I didn't realize this was for RAM 1500s (even though it says it right up there in the forum title). I guess I need to go seek out the heavy duty ram forums to ask this question. Silly me. BTW, I do have a diesel 3500. I appreciate the reply.

    Using truck's charging system for your fifth-wheel

    This is sort of towing related. I'm getting a new 5th wheel in a few weeks and will be adding solar and 6 Battle Born 100A lithium batteries to it shortly thereafter. I was wondering - when you're not getting enough solar to recharge the batteries or you've run out of battery power due to...

    12" Uconnect Feature update wish list.

    I bought the Overdryve 7RV stand along GPS a couple of months ago to get used to it knowing that the built-in maps for most (if not all) cars and trucks are pretty much worthless when it comes to map updates. Plus there will probably be many places I'll end up with no cell service so relying on...

    12" Uconnect Feature update wish list.

    Since these trucks are designed to tow, and sometimes pull large trailers, add a navigation feature to define max height, length, and weight to avoid those areas not compatible with current rig. Free map updates over sirius or the internet; other GPS units have free updates for life; why can't...

    Another New Ram owner here!

    Thanks for your info Dr. Jim. My sticker says the payload is 3904 lbs. That's going to be close since my pin weight is going to be right about 3100 lbs. Along with fuel, me and the wife and a couple hundred pounds of tools, generator, and miscellaneous stuff, we're going to be right around...

    Another New Ram owner here!

    Some people get the cart before the horse. Not me; after reading about all the horror stories of people getting more trailer than their truck can handle, I got my horse first. All 400 of them. Didn't plan on it. Drove to Iowa from Florida to visit my father-in-law in a nursing home and dropped...
