    Can this truck with 3.92 rear tow 8k - 9k lbs safely

    Thanks for that info. I would like some response in acceleration and as long as it is not extremely slow I'd be fine. I have seen some videos which takes about 10 seconds to get to 60 mph. About 8 seconds is okay especially in light of the terrific fuel economy. How many miles do you have on...

    Can this truck with 3.92 rear tow 8k - 9k lbs safely

    Vern, do you recommend ecodiesel 3.92 for about 7k - 8k pulling. I was offered 18k off of an ecodiesel from a local dealer who literally has hundreds of them on the lot. I was a bit worried about the horror stories and the lack of acceleration because it will also be my DD.

    Etorque or non-etorque – which one would you prefer and why?

    I test drove a Ram with etorque Hemi 5.7 engine with 18 inch wheels last week. I could feel the hybrid like driving characteristics and I like it. I also test drove one without etorque, but had 20 inch wheels and I liked that one as well. I have also found another Ram dealer who has a Ram 1500...

    Black vs other colors.. need opinions

    Ignore my previous post, as I quoted the wrong post . Did you do it yourself or did you get it done professionally?

    Black vs other colors.. need opinions

    Thanks for the answers so far. Does ceramic coating help with extending the wash cycle at all?

    It actually looks good. I like it enough to actually consider black on mine.

    Can this truck with 3.92 rear tow 8k - 9k lbs safely

    Just to add to the above, it will be a 2019 Ram 1500, 3.92 rear axle, 5.7L Hemi. I am not foreseeing towing that much often. We are thinking of getting a TT close to 6K – 7K # range, but wanted to future proof if in case we change our minds later. It won’t be a regular thing, but once or twice a...

    Can this truck with 3.92 rear tow 8k - 9k lbs safely

    I am looking at a crew cab, Laramie. I was wondering if this can tow 9k lbs comfortably in the mountains. What has been your experience? Also how does this compare to an Ecoboost 2.7 with the same load?

    Difference in storage bucket vs bench

    I would be terrified to let my kids get in the car without me .. lol . I am worried if they accidentally change the gear or something. I did that once when I was young, so it's in the gene.

    Do you mind posting an entire picture of your truck so I can see how the black blends in? Thanks.

    Difference in storage bucket vs bench

    I went and test drove a Laramie with bench seats and I want to say I am very impressed. Although consoles look nicer and appealing, I would say not by much. Here are the things that I liked: 1) Your right hand will get a full resting area as opposed to half of your forehand hanging over the...

    Silver Truck with Chrome bumpers and black running boards

    That's information that may change my mind about going black. Didn't know that chrome lasted longer. Although I don't like chrome I have to admit that with the 2019 model chrome blends in well with many of the color choices. I do like chrome with billet silver, red, and even white. I may have to...

    Silver Truck with Chrome bumpers and black running boards

    Ideally, I like to have black running boards and some black wheels and color matched bumpers. I am assuming it will be too difficult to color match the bumpers without spending top $$.

    Any California truck owners? Need answers on registration and weight fees

    Thanks for all the answers... The dealer has readjusted the price to about $850, which sounds about right.

    Leveling kit question - can the dealerships do it and keep the warranty intact

    That's a little too much for me at this point. I was looking for a simple leveling kit to bring up the front side a little bit .

    Leveling kit question - can the dealerships do it and keep the warranty intact

    Did you install a 2 inch lift kit or a 2 inch leveling kit? How much did the dealer charge you if you don't mind me asking? You can send a pm if you don't want to mention the cost here. I was only thinking of a leveling kit in the front, but may consider a lift as well. I should take up...

    Leveling kit question - can the dealerships do it and keep the warranty intact

    I am thinking of getting a 2 or 2.5 leveling kit on the truck that I am in the process of negotiating. I have a couple of questions: 1) Which would be better on a 2019 Ram - 2.0 or 2.5 inch? 2) Is this something that the dealership can do and still be able to honor the warranty or will this...

    Silver Truck with Chrome bumpers and black running boards

    I am in the process of negotiating a deal on a silver truck with chrome bumpers. It does not have any running boards. I am thinking of adding black running boards. Would it look awkward to have black running boards since I have chrome bumpers and door handles? Opinions please.. thanks.
