Nice! Love the color, the wheels, etc.. You're going to need a bigger step ladder to look under the hood!

Yeah, but them tires on the 3/4 & 1 ton trucks just look too small for the body........

Thanks Friend! Been busting butt for years, time to roll. Wife was 52, life is too short. I see you're in Tx. I was born 6th gen Texan. Born in West Texas. The family ranch was in Erath county, But Gramps sold that years ago. I still have a ton of Kin scattered from DFW to Austin, out to Corpus Christie. Plan on getting down that way to breakout the Harley and tour on down to Big Bend.

Lone star mopar fest is coming up in October 12-13 Maybe we will see ya there.
Have fun and clear your mind

That might work too. I used to pull a flatbed years ago with a 93 F350. I'll be 60 next month, and looking to retire. My wife passed away a few months ago, so I'm going to load the Harley in the back and travel. My kids have spread out, so I can go setup camp near them to visit and let the grand-kids camp with me.
Very sorry for your loss Sir. Enjoy the great ride!

But don't the 20's give up some load/towing capacity ??

No, according the the spec sheet they gave for this build.

If anyone has data to the contrary, I would like to know if before I decide on which 5th wheel toy hauler.

20’s don’t give anything up as long as their the factory ones. If you uprgrade just make sure the wheels and tires you choose have the proper ratings. Now they do give up in some ride quality.

Nice! Man, im torn between the Night Edition and the 3500. That 3500 is sweet though, but the Night Edition is my kind of truck.

3500 makes the chassis of the 1500 more like a crossover. Ones a truck and ones a want to be.

You can get the 3500 in Black with the sport package, and it comes real close to the night edition.

However, the 3500 corners nothing like the 1500, obviously! For the first couple of days, I tried to drive it like I did the 1500. It's been many moons since I've owned a 1-ton truck.
