    First Time Diesel Owner + Bed Camper Advice

    I added air bags to my 2018 2500 6.4 and it made a world of difference. The truck felt top heavy without them. Looks low in the picture but perfect when on flat ground. 2015 Camp Lite 8.4s camper top. Loved it but now upgraded to a 2019 Cedar Creek 37RTH. Just can't take the boat now. ugh...

    Lets see what you are towing.

    This is the new model. Front living room, middle kitchen & bath, back has a queen bed with stackable w/d in closet. Bed raises up to put golf cart on back ramp door. Since i have a lifted cart, I have to remove the cart before lowering the bed. If need be, there is enough room to sleep with...

    5th Wheel w/2018 2500

    Well, I have to jump in here. I have my 2018 2500 6.4 4x4 and tow a 2019 Forest River Cedar Creek Silverback 37RTH (Toy Hauler). I upgraded my gears from the stock 373's to 456's. I also added airbags just to make sure everything was perfectly level. I do live in Florida but have traveled to...

    Cargo camera

    MPGRIMM2, I am not sure how to reply to direct comments. I wanted a cargo camera from the factory for my 2018 Ram but the dealers says "impossible". I just don't understand since you can order it from the factory on other models basically using the same hardware. If its a software issue...

    Question for 4.88 guys with 35's

    I updated my 373's to 456's and am very happy with that .. 70-75 about 2100 rpm if I remember correctly ... Also, pulls much better than i thought possible. Not sure if I got the best pricing but installed everything for $3,000 here in Florida ... Dealer would only put 410's in at a much higher...

    6.4 Hemi Gear Swap

    So I am getting about 15 to 16 miles per gallon at 75 miles an hour on flat driving Highway. As for range it’s a fairly small gas tank I think. I do so much city driving that the range is not very good. Local mileage in town is between nine and 10 miles to the gallon. Towing 14,000 pounds at 65...

    6.4 Hemi Gear Swap

    Well, picked up my 14,200lb 5th wheel 2019 FOREST RIVER CEDAR CREEK SILVERBACK 37RTH. I don't know what it would have been like with the 373's but I will tell you, the 456 will get this down the highway @ 65 MPH 2600 rpm with power to spare. You may not take off from a stop like you are at the...

    6.4 Hemi Gear Swap

    I really can not understand why the 373's were an option for this truck. The 456's seem to be a natural for every day driving ... and the power you get to the ground is just amazing. Can't wait to pick up my 5th wheel tomorrow and see how the towing improves.

    6.4 Hemi Gear Swap

    So I finally had my 456 gears installed. 75 mph on the highway at 2100 rpm’s with 34 1/2 inch tires and 15.5 miles per gallon according to the onboard computer. What a huge difference in the amount of power available to me now. Never downshifts going over simple Street bridges on I 95. Can’t...

    SUPERBEEMIKE ... You have made my final decision... Looking to buy a 5th wheel in the 14k weight range .... 3.73's just are not working for me now with my truck camper and boat ... 4.56 will be perfect, I hope ...

    6.4 Hemi overall experiences?

    Well, my 2018 6.4 2500 4x4 & i have been putting on some miles the last year. Over 9,000 and most is spent with a 3000lb truck camper in the back with my 3500lb boat in tow. Mileage anywhere from 7mpg (windy and hilly) to a littler over 9mpg (no wind and flat roads). Unloaded around town about...

    UConnect Software Update Received--What's in it?

    WOW ... As of yesterday, I have not had an update that I know of. I did go to the dealer about a month ago for the recall. Since then, my stereo connects to Pandora (I use this on my boat) when I start my truck. Everytime. PITA . Also, I used to be able to read text messages on the screen...
