    Tradesman vs Big Horn

    In ‘16 I traded a ‘12 Larimie 1500 for a lightly used ‘16 Tradesman. It came with diesel, power windows, AC, auto, 4x4, small UConnect and the tow package. Yeh, I miss some of the comfort features but the capacity is much better. Really don’t need the status features. Got a Garmin Dezl GPS...

    More truck- my best option?

    Barb, I pull a 289RK Denali with my 2500. It has a 6.7 Cumins diesel. In unloaded I get about 19 highway and 12 city. Pulling the trailer I get about 10 to 11 mpg. The trailer is about the same weight as yours. This truck hauls the trailer so much better than my 1500 ever did. Plus, the...

    Replacing CC switch

    I have decided to replace my CC switch. If the temp is below 75* it won’t turn on. Does anyone have a service manual instructions on how to replace the switches on the steering wheel? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Cruise Control Buttons

    2015 2500 6.7 w/auto. I’m having a hard time getting my cruise control to turn on. When cold and I press the on/off button nothing happens. After the cabin and heats up the button will work, but it usually takes about two plus hours to get it to turn on. Once it turns on the system works per...

    XM Radio

    XM was getting way to “serious” with their pricing for the truck, car and Goldwing. I cancelled service on the truck and bike. Got the streaming service instead. Since both the truck and bike have BT, I’ve got XM in all three vehicles for way less. Works fine for me. Sent from my iPhone...

    New Head unit and have a ?

    Still happy with the Sony? I’m thinking of doing the same mod on both my 2500 and my Slingshot. Don’t like the radio on either vehicle. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Newbie 2500 Questions

    You’re right. Big D is not my favorite place. Now, the Cumins does have a special place in my heart. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Newbie 2500 Questions

    A couple of years ago I traded my ‘12 1500 5.7L w 70k for a ‘15 Cummins with 14k. Best move I have made in a long time. Love me some big D. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Stay with 1500 or go with 2500?? Need some imput

    From my experience, I’ve pulled a 25’ TT and a 30’ TT with a ‘12 1500 Ram 5.7 gasser. Pulled them both pretty good. Stepped up to a ‘15 2500 Ram w/6.7 Cummins turbo. Pulls the 30’ like it wasn’t even there. Should have got it in the first place. The Hemi got about 20 highway and 16 City...

    2016 Ram trailer swaying

    Couple of ideas: 1. Check ride height and weight distribution of the trailer. Weight and weight distribution in the trailer can have a dramatic effect on towing. 2. Look into a Hensley Arrow hitch. I have used my Hensley on two trailers pulled by three trucks (Tacoma, Ram 1500 and a Ram...

    How to charge Ram Diesel batteries since there are two?

    I’ve had my ‘15 2500 w/6.7l for 30,000 miles. Never needed to charge the batteries. It sits in the driveway for weeks at a time and gets started rarely. . Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
