    You got to explain it before I did and probably got the point across much clearer than I would have been able to.

    Towing more than the truck is rated for???

    Honestly I just threw a number out there now that I have actually looking at the weights of trailers I am considering they are averaging 6 to 7 thousand. I do have a weight distributing hitch and the truck is a qcsb 4x4. I think I'll be fine just to get it home.

    What DON'T you like about your RAM?

    I have heard about the 3rd brake light from a ton of people but I have yet to notice mine leaking. I have even had it off to replace the bulb and I didn't add any extra sealant.

    powder coating durability?

    In my experience with powder coating (actually doing the coating) surface prep is 90% of the work. Just like paint it needs somthing to grab on to. I would not expect powder coat to stick to our chrome bumpers as well without some roughing up. The surface also needs to be very clean.

    I know alot of people may disagree with me but I have been loyal to Craftsman hand tools and Dewalt power tools and have never had an issue. Lately I have been doing my fair share of wood working and have grown to prefer skill saws

    4.7L Towing (about) 4500lbs experience

    So it's worse than I thought. I had the trailer weighed (unhooked trailer on scale and moved truck completely off the scale)because for whatever reason the tax office needed a weight ticket to switch the title. Well....... it only weighs 3,220lbs. A full 1,300lbs less than I guessed.
