    Payload question

    I appreciate the reply, but I seriously doubt they used the term "Limited" because of the payload. What about a Longhorn that has basically the same options? Mopar used the same term with the Grand Cherokee even though there are a couple of trim grades above it including a Summit my wife had...

    Payload question

    Thanks for the in depth post. Yes, we had a 5th wheel, but towing with this 1500 will be completely different. The fiver was "half ton rated" and a piece of cake for my 2500. The current travel trailer we are looking at is just under 26ft with an advertised tongue weight of 711 and dry weight...

    Payload question

    I am in the market for a light travel trailer. Trying to figure out my payload is a bit confusing. The yellow sticker in the door jamb says 1103 lbs. But according to Mopar in the link below, it is 1530 lbs with a CC 4x4 5.7ft bed and 3:92 gears...

    Towing with 1500 and air suspension

    Right now I'm looking at a Rockwood MiniLite that is around 6700 GVWR, but it's the 711 lb dry hitch weight thats got me apprehensive. Its less than 26ft long, yet my buddys 30ft Starcraft only has a 590 dry hitch weight. He has weighed it loaded at 920 and tows it with a '17 Tundra. What a...

    Towing with 1500 and air suspension

    Sorry for the late reply, haven't been on the forum. I have decided not to tow with this truck after seeing the 1103 combined cargo weight on the door jamb sticker. When I got the truck, I assumed it had a higher rating since it had 3:92 gears and never even thought to look at the sticker...

    Maybe I'm missing something but this link, max tongue weight gave everything BUT max tongue weight.

    Towing with 1500 and air suspension

    I realize all the weight adds as I towed a 34 ft 5th wheel with a 2500 Cummins for a few years. Just never towed with a 1500. I'm not too concerned about weight as we plan on going with a smaller trailer, probably under 25ft. There is another poster here that said he went from a 2016...

    Towing with 1500 and air suspension

    I did a quick search for "towing" in the manual and couldn't find anything specificially about the air suspension which is why I started this thread.

    Towing with 1500 and air suspension

    After living in our 5th wheel while our house was being built, the wife was burned out with RV's, so sold both the fiver and the Cummins. Well, now we are talking about getting a smaller travel trailer for 2-4 day trips. My current '15 Limited 1500 has the factory air suspension and I can't...

    Boy this is not what I wanted to hear. I recently bought a 2015 1500 Limited with air suspension and looking at getting a travel trailer. I was apprehensive about the suspension but the truck was so clean I couldn't pass it up.

    Anyone have 3.92's with a Pedal Commander?

    Got it installed this morning and took it for a spin. I thought it was on Sport+ 1, but somehow I got on Sport+ 4! It freaking jumped the first time I went to take off normally. A bit too much. So, I backed it down to Sport+ 1 where I had it in my Cummins and it is still very snappy, but not...

    Cash out your RAM??

    We lived in a 5th wheel while our home was being built. Sold the 5th wheel when we moved into the house so had no need for the Cummins any longer. I booked it on KBB and $53k was the average trade in value. I paid $51k for it from a Ram dealer over 3 years and 14k miles ago. About a month...

    No DRL's in 2015 1500 Limited ?

    Awesome info, thanks! According to the link, it looks like the code I need is LM5 since the guy in the op had a truck basically like mine, a '15 Laramie. In defense of my small town dealer they really tried, but could not find the right code. I will go in on Monday and see if they tried the...

    No DRL's in 2015 1500 Limited ?

    Yea, when I went in and asked about it, the service writer gave me the deer in the headlights look. My problem with AlfaOBD is I am really a tech dummy and I read some reviews that people had issues where they really screwed up their truck and had to be towed to the dealer. Not many like...

    No DRL's in 2015 1500 Limited ?

    Got an appt for the dealer today and after an hour and a half waiting, they couldn't do it. Not sure if they didn't have the right code or what. So now I'm wondering if the dealer coudn't do it, could an AlphaOBD?

    LED bed lighting in 2015?

    Well I ordered a set even though my truck doesn't appear to have the plugs for them but does have the holes in the bed. I checked some Amazon reviews and a couple of guys said to just tap into the white/brown cargo light wire under the drivers side sill panel. Sounds like it may work out...

    No DRL's in 2015 1500 Limited ?

    Thanks. I will check with my dealer first and see what they say. If they are useless, I will go to plan B, the Alpha OBD and Youtube.

    LED bed lighting in 2015?

    The 2015 Limited I picked up a few days ago has the holes for LED bed lighting. I did a net search for them, and found kits for the 16's and 17's but not a '15. My bed has the factory holes, but I couldn't find any plugs underneath, although its getting late and I haven't looked real hard and...

    Where is the code? This is a small town and our dealer pretty much sucks.

    No DRL's in 2015 1500 Limited ?

    I'm an old fart and this tech stuff baffles the hell out of me, unless there is a step by step how-to vid on youtube.

    No DRL's in 2015 1500 Limited ?

    Thats is what I was hoping to hear! Hopefully mine will do the same, but I would even pay them a few bucks.

    No DRL's in 2015 1500 Limited ?

    I just picked up a super clean '15 Limited 1500 that is pretty much loaded with everything. I noticed it does not have DRL's. It appears to have the same headlights my '16 Longhorn 2500 has which had amber DRL's. I looked through the owners manual and don't see it mentioned anywhere...

    Cruise control quit

    Actually I smacked mine on the button side, but either way obviously works. After I did it once, I only had to do it about every 10 times I used it, if that. Most of the time it would work fine and if it wouldn't come on, give it another slap. I still laugh when I think about it.

    Anyone have 3.92's with a Pedal Commander?

    I never heard of the 9 drive until now. The Pedal Commander was the bomb when I got it about 3 years ago. But I have it, so might as well use it in the 1500.
