    info on factory brake controller

    I have a 2015 RAM 2500 with the factory installed controller. I could get no information from RAM on how the unit works. I have a Prodigy P2 that I love that was on my last truck (Tundra). So, to hedge my bet, I bought a wiring harness for the P2 that fits the RAM in case I didn't like the...

    OEM brake controller vs. after market

    Save a little $$ and get the P2. It operates the same way, and is cheaper, but with less features than the P3 that you probably don't need. I like the digital display size on the P2. Anyone know how the factory brake controller in the RAM 2500 works? Is it time based or inertia based? The...

    New to RAM2500, could use some advice

    I have used Mobil one in my Tundra since it was new, and like this oil. My friend used to race an IROC Z in 24 hour races (two drivers) and never had an issue with an engine using Mobil 1. I didn't know Penzoil is a synthetic. I'll look into it. How do you like your 2014 model? Did you...

    Stepped up to the plate, and ordered a new 2015 RAM 2500 6.4 / 4.10 with the Laramie Longhorn package. It is supposed to be in by Thanksgiving. Anyone got any advice on break in mileage/time before towing a 10K trailer? Also, I have run Mobil 1 oil with my Tundra with great results...

    Need a good towing tire?

    What differential gear ratio do you have, 3.73 or 4.11? I am considering a new 2500 Laramie 2500 with the 6.4 with a 4.11 and wonder what I would get for mileage solo. I want to tow a 10k lb honest weight 34' travel trailer. My buddy just bought a 5.7 1500 and says it has a lot of power, but...
