Just picked up my 2023 1500 Laramie with the 5.7 hemi. Very happy with it so far. I traded in my 2012 Ford F-250 diesel super duty which I loved, but it was getting a bit rough. I have done a lot of serious trailering in the past, but these days I'm mostly towing a very small boat and some Scout trailers.
My truck did not come with a hitch, so I'm looking at my alternatives for a class IV. I have found Mopar 82215222AD which seems to be well designed. I think there are Curt and Draw-tite alternatives. I'd order the Mopar already, but all the online parts places want $100-200 shipping for the $300 part. My dealer is not in a convenient location for me.
So I guess I'm looking for confirmation that the Mopar hitch is a quality unit, and also if there are any recommendations where you can order this $300 part with a reasonable shipping fee.
Thanks in advance, and I'm happy to be here on the RAM forums!
I'm also reading the threads about installing the OEM brake controller, but wondering if my dealer is going to give me a hassle about programming it.
