So today I brought my Ram dually in for rear tires. The shop wanted to upcharge me $20.00 per tire because they said changing rear dually tires requires more work. When I told him to cancel my order the fee was waived. When asked what the extra work was he said Dually’s have double lug nuts. My reaction was Um, no. I said that doing the four rear tires was easier than four tires on a 3/4 ton. 32 lugs to remove for tire from a 3/4 ton. 16 for the rear on a 1 ton dually. What are your thoughts?

He was correct when talking bigger trucks, but haven't seen that on my last three Dually 3500 series trucks.

Sounds about normal for Ram.Ram is as Ram does.

You're probably correct, the Big Truck I had was a 1967 used Lumber Company truck.

We don’t actually care anymore....You got a lemon and a schitty dealer. Happens with all brands. Your most recent post in the gasser v diesel thread was about as priceless as it gets. Sounds like your life would be much less stressful if you sold your Ram and moved on. If you didn’t get ripped off on the price 2 years ago, you could sell it for about the same $ as you bought it for.
