New Tow Vehicle

Picked up my new to me tow vehicle last night. Can't wait till camping season to see the difference from my 08 Dodge 1500 to a 2012 Ram 2500. Wrote off my 08 a couple weeks ago on an icy highway. That's one way to upgrade but I don't recommend it.
  • Yes I'm pulling a Flagstaff fifth wheel. It was a little much for the 1500 but I did it for 4 years with no problems. The 2500 is a Hemi with 4.10 gears. Will be a thirsty unit but I didn't buy it for fuel economy.
  • You are pulling a 5th wheel? You're going to be impressed with the new truck.
