    Why Laramie over Big Horn?

    I always get the leather, at least for vehicles I have bought since the 70's. never had one that looked old or broken in after a few years. they smell better and keep their looks longer than cloth in my view and they usually come at a higher trim level that has a few niceties. I am on my second...

    Gas mileage

    on my '19 laramie 1500 ccsb 4x4 3.92 8 speed I nearly always got 20 on the highway 70-75 usually. I got 8.5-10 towing our 28' 6000# travel trailer. usually 68-69 mph. my '22 laramie ccsb 4x4 dsl gets 19/20 on the highway and 11-12 towing our 10,000# 5th wheel. I stay under 70.

    Tire Selection Help - Yokohama Geolander vs Falken Wildpeak

    I had the Falken wildpeaks on my '19 laramie 4x4 and they were great. nice and guiet on the rough pavement in west texas and sicky enough on wet and snowy roads in the new mexico mountains. put 32,000 on them before trading trucks and they still looked new. probably going to put a set on my '22...

    Non- uconnect remote start?

    my '19 laramie remote start always worked after the uconnect ended. I have only heard of a few other brands that have made stuff like remote start a monthly service fee. the fix probably is use the key fob and not the phone.

    How is it that some dealers still have new 2022's on the lot?

    I watched a video a cpl. months ago where a guy had visited a couple of ford dealers to see how well the electric trucks were selling and the two dealers he went to only had a few but they were 1 and 2 years on the lot and were all over 100K. he said at that time nationwide there was a 377 day...

    Price negotiated from MSRP

    I am amazed that 76,000$ for a 1500 is considered a good thing. Ahh the good ole days of 2019 when I bought a new 57,775$ laramie 1500 4x4 ccsb/ 5.7/ 3.92/ ORP/ 33gal tank/ e-locker/nav/ sport hood and just about every other option for 43,000$ out the door.

    Hellwig? Hell, yeah!

    We drove mine many times to ski in new mexico at Taos and Red River. my '19 laramie was 4x4/3.92/33gals/ORG and did great in the mountains and on snow. I put the Helwig bar on to stiffen up the rear end when towing. better handling when not towing was a side benefit.

    Towing the new camper

    I have enjoyed following your towing story. had my own '19 laramie 1500 4x4 ccsb 5.7 with 3.92 and pulled our 28' 6000# travel trailer all over the place but traded our trailer for a 5th wheel and so had to go dsl hd and bought a '22 ram laramie 4x4 ccsb 6.7 to tow it. our old setup was great...

    Please post your Tire and Loading sticker

    you can easily tow a nice travel trailer with a 1500. I towed our 28' 6000# travel trailer all over the place with my '19 laramie..BUT it had the 5.7 and 3.92 rear end and 33 gal tank and off road. I could easily cruise at 70 on the highway but of course gas mileage would suffer at maybe 8...

    Hellwig sway bar and towing

    I swapped the sway bar on my laramie for the Helwig and I have it on the middle setting. It helped take some of the shimmy out of the rear end when towing our 28' 6000# travel trailer. I also run a few more # air in the tires and I have airbags on the rear which I put 25# when towing.
