    Rear axle ratio vs mpg.

    I am always confused as to why someone would have a nice truck that has a V8 engine and 4x4 and is worrying about gas mileage. You have the 3.92 which most everybody wants due to a better tow rating. Help me understand?

    Tailgate falls down

    Folks getting pretty nasty around here these days. If you can't help the guy out ignore the post, crack open a beer and yell at your neighbor for something.

    2023 first oil change

    I hate that you have to be dealing with something like this. Just annoying as hell I'm sure.

    35’s Vs 37’s

    Well I don't know crap about all the things you asked about but I do know truck campers! How do you like your FWC? Like that you keep it on full time. What model? I hoping one day they come out with a hard side. I'm a full timer in my Capri Retreat and can't do a pop top.

    2019 2500 6.4L engine blown up at 95K miles?

    Sorry so late on this. I don't do push notifications. I just traded for business tax reasons. Had no problems motor wise. Truck was really good. Just like you cruise set at 70 to Raleigh and back. Traded for a 2500 Silverado at Jeff Gordon in Wilmington. It was the only gas 2500 I could find...

    What do you always have in your truck?

    I moved to Asheville NC in 79 from northern NJ where most of my friends drove Cadillacs or Buick Riveras. When I saw all those trucks with shotguns hanging in the windows I really wondered what the hell my mother got me into moving to this place

    What do you always have in your truck?

    My home! Oops I traded in my Ram for a Silverado. Am I still allowed here? It was the only gas 2500 I could fine at the end of 2021.

    Looking for a lighter tire

    I guess bit unless it makes a difference in your lifestyle which I'm sure it won't why worry about having an extra 25$ in your checking account.

    I Gotta Ask...

    Everyone has different reasons for purchasing anything at different times in their lives. I bought my first truck and never towed or hauled anything except three kids. I lived at the beach with 4x4 access so a truck fit my needs. Another truck I purchased was for the same thing and it also drove...

    Looking for a lighter tire

    Not sure how light of a tire to go with while towing? Load range E 10 ply should be minimum for towing at 80lbs psi. Not trying to be nasty but just like many others I'm sure you have a nice truck and trailer why the huge concern over mpg?

    2020 ram 2500 6.4

    Exactly..some people don't understand payload is more important than towing capacity for some applications. It's definitely the case for me hauling a truck camper full time.

    Which models are stolen most?

    I have been with with State Farm for over 30 years and they have definitely done right by me.

    Mileage- Small Camper and Eco Diesel

    Just purchase the camper the want and worry about mileage another day. As long as you can tow is safely and within your limits you will be fine.

    22 Power Wagon MPG

    Im in a similar situation. I have 2020 turbo Mustang that gets excellent gas mileage. I use it to run to appointments and such and my truck and full time truck camper sits on those days.
