    Take it all with you.

    This is such a cool vehicle and trailer combo I had to do a quick search for a modern equivalent. Found this: http://andersonmobileestates.com/ Some of these are wild.

    Frame Strength, Who to Believe! The RV Sales Guy or the New Truck Dealer? Maybe Neither?

    This really just seems like costly ignorance. He also has a front bull bar subtracting from his payload. If you look up some pictures, this is the same way that these RAM frames buckle when in a collision from the rear while towing. This truck is crazy overloaded. Looks like an older guy too...

    Looking......

    Is that bumper all plastic? Any way to fab some brackets to a piece of structure underneath and then just pop them up through the plastic? The recover point bolting location may be a good start and go straight up? I have a RAM and behind the bumper is basically empty space, but I've never seen...

    Ram Roof Racks

    While I have a newer RAM, I have to agree with @Cummins_Powered. I've spoken to the RAM bodybuilder group and they also say that the roof is not designed to support those types of loads. There are people that put lots of weight on a roof rack over the cab on these RAMs, including huge spare...

    One possible fix to the low range problem with EV’s

    "This is the future...", So internal combustion engines are still the future? I agree.

    The bigger the truck, the greater the (misplaced?) concern about payload?

    I'm pretty sure my RAM 3500 Cummins has twice the payload of a equally equipped RAM 2500 Cummins. If you took a 2500 and loaded it to my 11,700 gvw I doubt the two trucks would drive the same. You'd be on the bump stops in the 2500, so it's more than just tire pressure. I've always wondered, in...

    Mule Expedition Outfitters accessory brackets do not fit Four Wheel Camper

    This is a nice mount and simple solution, but what do you use the Hi-lift for on your rig?

    Ford F350 Shock Upgrade Recommendations

    If you have no complaints about your stock shocks, then Bilstein is a good logical choice.

    Tex's 200 Series

    What color wheels would you be planning? It looks so clean with the silver now, it would be hard for me to pick a wheel color for that white. Anything but black, please. Part of the fun for me is the planning, good luck with figuring out exactly what you want to do.

    2000 F250 with stock 7.3L / 2020 OEV CampX #40

    Is that a exterior door lock added to the door? "Serviced every 3k". That's a lot of service.

    Ram 2500 long term reliability

    Are you planning to use the truck "out of the box" or plan to modify it? Also, will this be your daily driver as well as the tow/travel vehicle? If you do plan to daily, go drive these trucks around the places you frequent. I specifically got a 3500 so I wouldn't ever have to worry about...

    Lets see some full size pictures...

    What you would estimate is the total weight you have on that roof rack? Is the rack attached using rivets? Any deflection in the mounting areas? As I'm sure you have some miles on this install I'd like to hear your thoughts.

    need advise for full size truck choice

    Just a note, RAM removed the manual option for the 2019 model year and on. I ordered my '18 Cummins manual and it is a pleasure to drive on a Carli Backcountry kit and 37s. My only complaint is that reverse could be deeper. The BD 2-lo kit is a life saver backing my trailer up the driveway...

    How much are slightly used Ram 3500 OEM parts worth?

    I think you will get pennies on the dollar if you are comparing to some online parts cost for most of those parts. The wheels might be a different story, but are also a crapshoot on price vs. actual buyers. I also swapped out the full suspension on my '18 3500. Almost all of the parts you...

    Simple rims for modern full size trucks?

    I have Method MR314s and they are a cleaner, nicer "Dakar" style wheel. If you liked the AEV, you might like the MR314 style.

    Need help finding proper relays

    I'd recommend looking in to micro/mini relays from the car audio side of things: https://www.qualitymobilevideo.com/5083pwmr.html This is just an example, but these are great as the size allows for incorporating them in to your harness. I have a 20A version of these in heat shrink behind my...
