    Yes, fastguns hook to rub rails. ROCK solid. Bed is stock except DZ boxes I put on. I LOVE the diesel !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I have owned 7 cummins and have never had an issue even into high milage. Your going to love the exhaust brake as much as you will love the power.

    What do you want your over all length to be? Or is that not a huge deal. For my wife and I this rig is very small because we are used to a 45ft DP. My over all length is nothing for me. I can fit this rig anywhere.

    Ram 5500 is here

    11.5 feet. I actually ordered a 84 inch cab to axle. But 60 inch is what showed up. After giving me a few thousand more off I took it and LOVE IT. Front end is rock solid. All my tanks are up front in the camper so there is more weight on the front axle with the camper loaded. Drives...

    They don't like anything without a regular pick up bed on it. They insured my dump truck for 11 years. I said why are you insuring my dump truck and you won't insure my 5500? There response, you have a dump truck? One week later I get a letter, no more dump truck. I am not a contractor...

    Yet, tons of people take there TC off road every year with no problems. I think if you buy a quality TC and a quality truck you won't have many problems, unless you just want to beat the crap out of it for no reason. A lot of people seem to get hung up on off road capability. An expedition...

    looking at new trucks and have a question about the Rams

    You are correct about the 75 gal of fuel, VERY nice to have. Everything about this truck is heavy duty. I also added 6 storage boxes. Camper is set up for off grid. 6 house batteries and 4k inverter. I can run the AC on batteries, just not all night. I carry a 2k honda also.

    looking at new trucks and have a question about the Rams

    I did have a 2016 3500 with factory air. I pulled a 5th wheel and hauled my TC. I didn't have any problems with the factory air either way. Loved it. That said, we sold the 5th wheel and will be going back to a DP MH. We will also be keeping the TC. I bought a 5500 for the TC...

    Drove a JKU and JLU back to back yesterday...JK is still better.

    Everyone is entitled to there opinion. The good news is brand new JK's can still be found if that is what you want. They all have good and bad points. I generally order and buy new. That way I get exactly what I want and a great price. My order for a 2dr Rubican will go in about a month...
