Well the LONG awaited new truck is finally in my driveway!!!!! 2015 LongHorn Dually Crew Cab Aisin/4:10 combo. Oh yea rear air too.
Picked it up yesterday at AutoNation in Seattle.
So far with just a couple hours behind the wheel I like it. There are so many new things to learn compared to my 11 HO Dually LongHorn I traded in.
I was NOT happy with the ride. The factory had 80psi on all 6 tires so I dropped the rears to 45 and it rode MUCH better.
The Aisin/4:10 combo will really get the load moving easily compare to the 11 with 68RFE/3:42's.
The "Full On" exhaust brake mode is awesome.
The front suspension makes the 11's look wimpy! Very massive.
Have a B&W RVK3600 sitting in the bed in two boxes and am anxious to get that installed and my HighwayProducts bed height tool box installed.
Can't wait to hook up and really give it a workout!
yes very nice...
AFter research I am gonna get a Ram and maybe the same model you bought.
Are there any additions I need to stink about..?
Was it necessary to up grade to the "H" loading tires?
thanks
Rick
Thanks!
I went with all options except auto wipers and auto dim. At this point I would not get the cargo camera. Reason is it just does not give you good visibility where you need it at the 5er hitch. It focuses more on the front of the bed. When you choose the cargo camera option you get the backup cam in the mirror instead of the big screen and the backup cam in the rear view mirror. From what I hear you can get an aftermarket LockPick to swap images. I don't want to do that and possibly void the warranty on the computer. Instead I will try to adjust the cargo cam.
The H rated tires were for my Mobile Suites RV. It was needed since my wife just keeps adding weight!
Personally when ordering a Dually the 4:10's are the correct choice. Never limited that way. They really get the load moving along with the Aisin's lower starting gears. At 62 the rpm's are 1,700+.
