I can't find a clear answer in searching. I have a 2020 Laramie without the tow package (but it does have the 3:92 rear, trailer brake controller). Does my truck support extra TPMS sensors for my travel trailer?

From what I'm understanding, it's something I probably don't have, but the 2021 now does in it's two package? Am I understanding the packages correctly?

No you don’t have it. Yes it’s included in the ‘21 tow package (1500), it’s a separate option on 2500

Might be able to flash a software update but you’d also need to add the TPMS signal receiver box that’s near the rear bumper

WHere does this box plug in near the bumper,, i've taken a peek up there but dont see any plugs on the trailer harness assembly.

Thanks - thats what I was figuring.

When I bought my 1500, I skipped the tow package in favor of the 360 camera, but I have use cases for both. Was a little annoyed you can now get both on the 2021 - but, what are you gonna do :)

No flash for the 20...wiring harness for 21 also slightly different.
I use the Dill Trailer TPMS, excellent system. I think it’s the best because it uses internal OEM style sensors.

Soon after I get a trailer, off come the cheap Chinese tires and on go Goodyear Endurance - and TPMS along with.
