Picked up the new truck today.
We left the dealer in Greeley, Co at noon and drove 409 miles today. We are 3 miles short of Utah. Talk about long legs this thing really strenches them out. Fuel fill is not as good as the old 2001. ...

to many ask me why I went to a 3500. the cargo is the reason, but not one salesman looked at that. I am going from 1500 to 3500 and now I read that has limits, but my 5er is 12,500 gvwr. cant wait
I looked at my neighbors older 3/4 chevy and it only had a 9400 gvrw, yet he was pulling a 33 ft older 5er. he has to be over everything yet has been doing it for 15 yrs
Your neighbor is likely only over his GVWR! I tow a 12,360# GVWR 32' 5er (11,200# or so) with an 2001 Ram at a GCVW of about 19,000# to 19,500#. Yes over the GVWR, but well under all other ratings.
