    2013 3500 SRW intermittent TPMS warning

    As the title says, I have a 2013 3500 SRW. It doesn’t have TPMS. Yet when going up steep hills, especially on bumpy roads, or when accelerating to highway speed I get and audible alert and the TPMS warning light will flash on for a split second. Every now and then it will kick off the cruise...

    What if Ram/Cummins end relationship?

    So we've all heard the rumors... some of us for years. Most sont think a switch is very likely if at all probable. But, what if FCA decides to go in house down the road for a heavy duty diesel? Do you think they would just let the contract expire and move on? Would they offer them alongside...

    Towing MPG

    Post 'em up! I won't badger you about evic mileages, in fact if you have a pic of your readout add it in. So we took another trip to the Black Hills. 600 miles towing, the rest empty. Towing speeds were mostly 65, except in the BH, where speed limit drops to 50 in a lot of places. The rest of...

    Super Ike Gauntlet

    I did a search but didn't find a hit, but TFL loaded a 2016 Ram DRW with 30,000lb trailer and went for it. https://youtu.be/4sHvBZVPK_s they had to mess with the parameters for some reason and try manually shifting on this test. On top of that they had the exhaust brake on full instead of...

    ST vs LT

    I have a new Toy Hauler with ST235/80r16 "China Bombs". My father just had 3 of his 4 fail coming back from Quartzsite with about 3,000 miles on them. Luckily he caught them before they let go. My trailer was delivered from AZ, plus about 800 miles of our use. I check pressure at every stop...

    6.4L gear hold "feature"

    Just curious who, if anyone besides me, has encountered the gear hold "feature"? Looking at the numbers the "feature" costs about 2-3 minutes compared to the other gassers in the segment. For all the ado about this, I have only read of one other who encountered it, and it was on the IKE.

    www.onthegomap.com Kind of a neat resource. A guy over at irv2.com shared that link. Not only does it give distance, but also elevation and grade. I couldn't find out much info about the pass I climbed and decended going into the Beartooths, so I looked it up on there. I knew it was...

    Leveling blocks

    What do you all use to level your campers when you get to your destination? I use foot long sections of treated pine 6x6 under the stabilizer Jacks and tongue jack. Under the wheels for leveling I was using scrap pieces of 2x6 about a foot long I picked up for free. Only problem is I've already...

    Has anyone tried to use a Titan Sidekick as a transfer tank on their gas powered tow rig? My father has a normal steel transfer tank on his diesel, but has it set up with a pick up tube and fuel pump. I was thinking of doing the same to my 6.4 but with sidekick to leave me room in the bed to...

    Tire size and gear ratio

    I read a lot about people wanting to get from 3.73 gears to 4.10 in their gas HD Ram. Or even 4.10 to 4.56. I have even read that they think 4.30 would be ideal. Tires are something many change from stock within a few hundred miles. Why not keep some dough in your pocket and toss on some 31"...

    8.0 vs 6.4

    ok, for those that have had the v10 ram and now the 6.4 hemi, 1)how do they compare? 2)how do they differ? Discuss! FWIW I liked the 98 2500 V10 my father had. It pulled his 28.5' 5er no problem. Well, other than it didn't pass a gas station. He had a Jet chip and Gibson cat back.
