"He kept saying he was almost to his MAX weight??? 25,720# combined, I sure don't think so!
Kept saying how great the trans stayed in the gear it should be, but then it didn't and he couldn't understand what was wrong.
Says the RAM was horrible in 6th same road, what was he towing with 3.42's or 4.10's??? I tow at 60 in 6th at 1,750 a perfect rpm. 4th is 2,700 at 60 and 5th is somewhere i n the middle 2,200-2,300?
So here is a guy that is constantly saying the EB is not very good and the RAM holds great in any gear.
Something that annoys me is he seems to be a left lane HOG.
He said "10th is for over 70" then next thing he is in 10th at 55-60 and doesn't understand why. Trans on cruise set to 55 would drop to 45 before dropping a gear."
No offense to other truck drivers, but....he is a truck driver. You know what they say about when the door closes...Plus not everyone is mechanically saavy. Bet you don't see him posting any vids of how to rebuild a (fill in the blank), just how to "Almost get arrested."
Maybe that's why he's "almost" to HIS max weight. No Class A even though his combo is over the gcvw limit?
