    Tried adding Hot Shots. Now stuck with a hose sticking out of my fuel tank <sigh>

    try pushing on the hose while pushing on the flap at the same time , if you get the flap open the whole way with the screwdrive then you might be able to pull the hose out , the metal flap probably has a nick in the hose and is keeping the flap from going open so pushing the hose while pushing...

    RV Towing Newbie

    My own experience says that the first camper will be ok then you see all the ones with more room and extras and start to wish, then end up having a truck that won't handle your wish , my choice would be a 2500 with 6.4 hemi , it will tow better the engine won't work as hard and you will be able...

    Towing a camper with my 2017 Ram 1500 hemi for the first time. What can I expect?

    One thing alot of people don't realize is 2500 trucks have 10 ply tires and 1500 don't, the weaker sidewalls contribute alot of tralier sway because of that

    Looking at our 1st TT

    10 ply tires is one of the biggest helps in trailer towing and 1500 series trucks don't have them.

    Towing a Travel Trailer Question

    part of the reason the trailer sways is because the 2500 has 10 ply rated tires and the 1500 does not , the 10 ply gives you a stiffer sidewall and less sway.

    AC stays engaged all the time

    1/2 ton to 3/4 ton towing.....worth it?

    I went a 2500 for the exact same reason , the sway is gone with the 2500 , I assume you already have the weight distribution hitch, from what I have been able to find out over the years one of the main reasons the sway goes away on 2500's is the 10 ply tires used on them for the load capacity, I...

    Rotary Shifter

    I don't like it for the fact that when you are backing a trailer and have to make multiple moves it takes longer , the only way to get the gearshift is pay 9000 more and get the cummins.

    5.9 turbo

    yes that is the way it is set up , the top has a hole in the middle with 2 bolt holes on either side of it. by using the adapter it allows me to put the oil feed line on the top of the turbo as you and I both agree the oil should flow down.
