    I need to upgrade my truck to a 250/2500

    100% Absolutely I've been a Toyota guy my entire life and owned one of almost every single model except for the 55 and 200 series. It was a HARDDD decision to go Domestic for my current setup, but there simply werent any other options

    I need to upgrade my truck to a 250/2500

    Another thing i find odd thats NEVER discussed here is the OFFROAD factor with the GVWR. GVWR is calculated on the stresses in every day use, aka street driving. Add the strains of offroad use and the stress on components (steering, brakes, suspension parts, etc...) multiplies. This is a...

    Reading through the comments and something keeps coming up over and over again. Yes, the owner/driver of said overweight vehicle is responsible for whatever happens at the end of the day. But... When (or if) do you all think the Camper Manufacturers will be held at least partially...

    Ram Chassis Cab vs 3500 Pickup for next vehicle? Input needed! For flatbed truck camper.

    Exactly My Thoughts! I have driven 2 different Prospectors... Yeah, their spacer lift allows the big tires, but the ride quality was meh at best. I have driven a Carli setup truck that drove amazing, but i have not driven anything with the Thuren stuff YET Also worth noting. Do you own...

    No…. Not at all. He says he wants a larger camper. Why would he want less GVWR and been worrying about weight limits when he can go bigger and not worry? The trend in the classifieds section says it all… “Upgrading to bigger truck” seems to accompany most ads on there nowadays Also worth...

    Just buy the hypertech Calibrator gizmo so you have the tool forever and will probably save money versus 6 hours of driving/fuel. Hypertech gizmo for my truck was about $200 and as of this post, we’ve done 4 different trucks with it #yourewelcome

    Have you recalibrated the speedo for the 37s? With the Rams is crucial to adjust the speedo properly with bigger tires, to get the transmission shifting properly. Otherwise it shifted super early and annoying. No idea if Fords are the same, but after getting my speedo dialed in perfectly...

    Dead Nuts… Being engineers and trying to get our stuff as tight as possible, we often refer to it as dead nuts, it’s funnier at work I guess. His work is now all dead nuts by default
