New Ram 3500 Owner

[Raife]

Evening all. Just picked up a 2020 Ram 3500 CC LB SRW Cummings HO on Wednesday. Very happy so far. Now to sell the Durango...

Looking forward to getting advice and insight from everyone here.

Advice and Insight on what? You have yourself a truck that's made to pull/haul just about anything you want up to about a 20K trailer (heavier than that is dually territory). Don't baby the truck, it's meant to work. Be sure to stretch it's legs on the freeway on a regular basis to keep the emissions filters good to go and follow the maintenance schedule in the owners manual.
If your new to diesels, don't put DEF or gasoline in the fuel tank. You may laugh but it's reported on the forums more than you think.

Thanks for the welcome. I bought it to tow, so no worries there (although we have a small trailer right now).

In terms of advice and insight...I am rarely satisfied with things as they are and tend to futz...for example, one on my first posts is regarding the install of a dashcam and radar detector - hardwire to fuse box as I have done the last 2 vehicles or figure out the Aux Swiches option (here)

Welcome! Good looking rig. And, OK, I'll be the **** jerk and ask you...please drop the "g". It's Cummins...

I think the spell corrector got him, it gets me a lot. His spelling is correct in his signature.

Ah! Glad to hear that is the likely culprit...I've never had that happen to me so it never occurred to me. It makes my eye twitch when I hear people say it.

Nice looking 3500, looks like a long bed. Will be very good at towing. I have my Garmin RV GPS w dash cam and my HaloView rearview monitor on the dash. I bought a 12v plug in splitter from Walmart and have them both plugged in on the dash. Works great for me.

Yes, the autocorrect got me and I went back and manually re-corrected it...
