    Consumer Information Cargo Weight Rating versus RAM's Listed Cargo Capacity?

    I recently purchased a 2022 RAM 3500 in which the tire and loading door sticker states that the truck's "combined weight of occupants and cargo should never exceed 3,571 lbs." Included in the truck is a 1-page sheet titled "Consumer Information Truck-Camper Loading" and it states that the cargo...

    2007 Dodge Ram 1500 Crew Cab 6 ft bed Payload question

    Hi All, I found forums on here related to payload but not quite what I needed. I inherited a 2007 Dodge Ram 1500 with 6 ft bed, crew cab and 4.7LV8 engine. I found the GVWR on the sticker and it states 6700lbs. Payload was not listed. I took the truck to the weigh station and it read 5880lbs...

    Numbers don't make sense

    I'm shopping for a 3500 dually crew cab 4X4 HO Cummins 8 foot bed either Laramie or Big Horn to pull a 21,000 lb GVWR 5th wheel but the numbers don't make sense. I see this under the Ramtrucks.com Detailed specs page: Taking the GVWR minus the Curb weight I would think equals the payload but...

    Slide in camper & towing trailer

    So originally I bought my 2017 Ram 1500 quad cab 4x4 for towing my 14’ utility trailer and rzr xp4 1000, which it does with ease. After this last time I went tent camping, I realized how much it can suck so I’ve been thinking of getting a slide in truck camper. This way I can tow my rzr once in...

    2500 to 3500 conversion

    Hi you all. I've a question. I have a chance to buy a nice 06 2500 with only 119k miles on a 5.9 cummins, and I have heard of conversion kits which I assume is air bags, but maybe just different springs? My main question is, (provided they have these kits for 3rd gen) will it legally turn my...

    2019 Warlock V8 Hemi - Payload????

    Hi All a friend of mine has a 2019 Warlock Hemi Crew Can and the door stick says max payload is 1313LBs. This seems low as I have a 2020 Bighorn V8 Crew and it is rated for 1712LBs. can anyone add some insight into if the Warlock is accurate and if so as to why the large discrepancy. TIA.

    Hemi Vs Cummins for slide in camper

    My wife and I purchased a slide in camper last year and I am looking to trade in my 15 Silverado 1500 for something more capable. I currently have 1713lbs payload capacity on my LTZ double cab. Camper dry weight is 1350, and wet weight is about 1600 or so. I figure another 600lbs in people...

    Factory Coil Springs Versus After Market

    I purchased a 2020 Ram 2500 Diesel a month ago. Shame on me, but I didn't pay attention to payload thinking I should only be worried about towing capacity numbers. Fast forward a month and I've learned my vehicle has 2155 lbs of payload, which really sucks since I bought it to haul a 5th wheel...

    What is the weakest link giving the truck it's payload capacity?

    I bought my truck as a tow pig so never really looked at the payload capacity until I needed to haul some landscape blocks that weigh 70 lbs each. The Ram 1500 payload is kind of a joke. My light duty utility trailer holds almost as much. The F150 will holds more than double. Otherwise I...

    Fifth Wheel Towing

    Hey guys. I'm thinking about getting a fifth wheel RV for the family. My 2007 Ram 1500 5.7 Hemi already has a ball in the bed. I'm not sure what kind of trailer the truck used to haul. I want to get a 26' gooseneck RV but I'm not sure how much pin weight this half ton truck can handle. Maybe I...

    Improving payload for 2011 Laramie Longhorn 1500 - need your input

    I regularly haul alfalfa on my truck and with a 3.92 axle for a Laramie Longhorn w/Rambox, it looks like my payload is 1,200 and towing is 9,750. I don't really have any issues with towing on my trailer because I typically haul 50-70 bales at a time but hauling in my truck bed has been...
