    My towing experience.

    Hitch was set up by the dealership I bought the trailer from. Also, because the Ram is taller than the Ford, I had to lower the hitch by one hole but, other than that, the set up remained the same. Trailer felt steady this time where as the Ford felt squirrelly. I don't think the hitch was the...

    My towing experience.

    Hi All. Just wanted to relate my recent (and first) towing experience with my new to me 2014 Ram 2500. I bought this truck back in December 2015 to replace my 06 Ford 250 with the 6.0l diesel. The Ram is a heavy duty 4X4 with the 318 engine. I was pulling a 30' travel trailer that weighs...

    Custom Blind Spot Mirror

    I finally got time to post. Got mine also, installed them and went for a ride. They look great and do a good job of relieving that annoying blind spot. I'm looking forward to taking the truck out on the highway to see how they work in traffic. I do have to agree with 9th in that they could...

    Thanks all.

    2.5" to 2" receiver adapter

    Do I have to use the nut/bolt provided or (considering the oblong shaped hole on the adapter) can I use a regular hitch pin? Thanks.

    2.5" to 2" receiver adapter

    I'm a little confused (not a difficult thing to do by the way:)). I found the adapter, a bolt with a special head on it and a nut under the rear seat of my truck. Exactly how is one supposed to use this thing? Do you slide the adapter in, then the hitch and then bolt it in place? That sounds...

    Power outlet mod?

    A last note for those who care: Finally took the truck to the dealership to check on recalls, current computer flash and a couple other things. I asked about making the front outlet hot all the time and was told you can't do that. I also had them check the outlet in the center console...

    Power outlet mod?

    No prob, Bud. Thanks to all for your help. Sounds like I'll have to run an aux. outlet from an always hot circuit.

    Power outlet mod?

    Maybe I'm reading it wrong, but, the instructions state... "rear center console power outlet", not the front.

    Do you know how?

    Power outlet mod?

    Alright, let us assume, for the sake of returning to my original question, that my truck lacks the rear outlet, usb or otherwise. Is there a way to make the front outlet and radio/uconnect screen powered on all the time?

    Power outlet mod?

    So, I went out to the truck today and looked in the back for the 12v outlet. I couldn't find it. Anyone tell me where I can find it?

    Power outlet mod?

    I'm fairly certain the rear outlet is a USB port, not the cigarette lighter type. I'd go out and check to make sure, but, it's cold outside and I'm an old wimp.:baby:
