I stopped in at a Meyer snow plow distributor today. I was surprised to hear them say, they wouldn't sell even a light-duty plow to a Ram 1500 truck owner which had EPS steering between certain years (I believe it was 2013 - 18??). And there are a number of years of certain F150 configurations which they wouldn't sell plows to. That was Meyer's policy. It had to do with problems with the EPS steering for a certain # of yrs. I understand the 1500's are lighter duty, but they're not THAT light duty for a lightweight snow plow. In many ways Ram 1500's (frames at least) are built stronger than trucks in the 80's we used to plow snow with all day long.
I'm not looking to put a plow on my Ram 1500 ....it just happened to come up in conversation and pretty soon there were 3 of their guys and myself chatting about some of the latest snow plow things that have changed in recent yrs.
Has anyone else heard this? (Sorry if it's been discussed before and I missed it).
