So I didn't end up buying the truck I wanted, but I got a deal so sweet on a brand new 2014 2500 HD 5.7L (yes really - only 31 miles) two months ago that I couldnt pass it up.
I am getting ready to purchase a new fifth wheel trailer and I have no problems at all with the pin weight, but it makes me uncomfortable to pull a 10-11k trailer (yes that is total, not just dry weight) when my max is just a couple hundred pounds over 11k.
I was wanting to get a tuner to help but after talking to Moe's, calling Diablo and searching for a few hours yesterday - it looks like the 2014 2500 5.7L isn't supported.
So now I am looking at switching my 3.73 to a 4.10. Has anyone else done this? It looks like my towing capacity should increase by about a ton and I think it will also put a little less strain on the motor and tranny.
Here's the weird part - most of the 2014 (and up) 3/4 ton have a 10.5" ring, but according to Dodge with my VIN - mine is actually 11.5" which is what they put on the 3500's. Weird.....??
