    5th wheel max weight for 2024 2500 diesel longhorn

    I'm surprised Ram hasn't followed Ford's lead on this one.

    5th wheel max weight for 2024 2500 diesel longhorn

    And remember to add in all the other weights too, like the 5th wheel hitch, passenger weight, etc. Likely you will be over max if the 5er is of any size at all. That's kind of the dirty little secret of the 3/4 ton diesels, very limited for big trailers, at least to stay legal. I always advise...

    RAM is Down!

    I still have those on a high shelf as well. Keep thinking I need to toss them. I used my tax return when I was 16 to buy a big tool set from Craftsman. This was mid-70's. Went to work for a while building trucks, and we had to have our own tools, so those came in handy. I still have most of...

    Tip for those struggling to pair trailer TPMS sensors with U Connect 5 RAMs

    I didn't have any problems pairing the TTPMS sensors with my u5 system, although it takes a long time for the first tire to be seen. After that one paired, the rest register quickly. The problem I have with TTPMS is that when I plug my trailer in, the system does not see that the sensors were...

    Tip for those struggling to pair trailer TPMS sensors with U Connect 5 RAMs

    You can buy after market TTPMS. The ones I've seen have a monitor you mount in the cab.

    Unresolved Lemon Law Claim - Two Years and Counting - 2022 Ram 1500 Limited

    Wow, quite the crap show. I'm surprised you LL lawyer can't shake the tree harder for you. Speaking of which, how does the lawyer get paid? Out of your settlement amount or directly from Stellantis?

    Ram Connect

    You lose it through the app, but the remote start on your key fob still works.

    A perfect 10??

    I hope you are not giving them the 10's they want.

    DEF

    I'd guess close to 5 gallons. At 1/2 tank, it takes one of those 2.5 gallon jugs to get mine back to full.

    12" Screen Questions

    Startup is a little delayed. The one in my '22 Ltd Longhorn starts up pretty fast, but you never know what screen is going to be displayed. I chose to find it humorous, in light of the much bigger problems the U5 system has given many others. U5 is pretty stable now, but it took it a while to...

    Oh they killed the ram box.

    At least they are not doing away with them. Stellantis has been streamlining the options for years, we first saw it on the 21/22 Pacifica when we bought one. They've been leaning on the Ram's the last couple of years. No flares on the Laramie, no gas motors in the 2 Limited 2500's, etc. One of...

    Terrible towing with factory air suspension

    It seems you are talking about a 1 ton, not the subject 3/4 ton. The factory air suspension is very different between those two.

    Ram Connect rant

    I live rurally in a low crime area and none of our vehicles sits outside overnight. So I'm not worried about it either. But I sure feel for the folks that do have to guard against it.

    Oh they killed the ram box.

    Link to this information? The Ram build site shows them as standard on a '25 1500 Limited.

    Terrible towing with factory air suspension

    Depending on your 5th wheel specs and other weight you have in the truck, given you have a 2500 CTD, you may be pushing the 2500 over it's weight limits.

    Terrible towing with factory air suspension

    I understand the frustration, but the old and new truck are not the same. You said you have a big lift on the old one where the new one is stock. Some tweaking to get it to tow well is not a shock. I moved from an 18 2500 Mega/Rambox factory air truck to a 22 2500 Mega/Rambox factory air truck...

    Can You Pump Up Your Brake Pedal?

    If the feel of the pedal changes by pumping it once, something is wrong. Get it to a dealer ASAP.

    2023 2500 6.7 Fuel Filters Help

    I think it's legit. I believe that is the official Mopar site that shops dealers in your areas inventory. So you will likely be paying MSRP for most parts from them.

    2023 2500 6.7 Fuel Filters Help

    Thanks for the reminder. Just ordered the Mopar filter set for my 22 Cummins from Geno's, and you're right, backordered until 4/30. But my next oil change isn't until October, so that works for me.

    Laramie Leather issues?

    Laramie's have leather trimmed seats. The main seating area is not leather. I had an 18 2500 Laramie and the seats were nice, IMO.

    Remote Start on 2500?

    It may just be part of a trim package. Both my 18 Laramie 2500 and 22 Longhorn Limited had it. On the window sticker, it was listed as "remote-start system", under the Base Price section.

    RAM is Down!

    You are much more patient than I am. I would have started the LL process (by going through arbitration) by now. That part is free, and based on my past experience, I can't see how you'd lose.
