Do you exercise your generator in the winter?
How many of you exercise your generator monthly during the winter? Obviously this only applies to those who have to winterize and store your unit... I bought my first RV right at the end of the se...

One can always fog the generator, and Onan actually makes OnaGard Storage Fogging Spray which allows the genset to be stored for six months without needing to be spun up every so often.
As for what I do, every year, I do the usual maintenance, then every 3-4 weeks, run a load on the genset.
When I move to a rig with an Onan generator, pretty much the same thing -- run the Onan genset while on the road so both the engine and the generator get run and run well.

I don't own the Ram 3500 SRW CTD Mega Cab; but I do own a 2019 Ram 1500 Classic Laramie 4door Cab and there is so much leg, hip and head room in both the front and rear seats with reclining rear seats - you are comfortable no matter where you ride.

This thread had me thinking about his NICE monster of a truck. RAM had a concept truck the "LongHauler"
In smaller states he could be entering a third one before exiting the first one! Have not seen him around the TDR site for quite a while!Me Again wrote:

Cool! Thank you.
No problem! There are a few other shops that specialize in that conversion too. I am not familiar with any of them personally but do know folks who have had it done and it sure is cool. It lets you have your cake and eat it too.SuperBus wrote:

There is really not that much more leg room in the backseat of a MegaCab , I have the MegaCab . and we compared it to my sons crew cab , if I remember nearly all the extra room back there is behind the seat . I personally prefer the MegaCab over the crew cab . A couple things , one is I like the extra room behind for fly rods , and other gear. The other is there is no notch in the middle of the seat on the MegaCab like the crew cab . I wouldn’t think that would be that comfortable for the middle passenger, not a big factor for me , but for a family carrying five , it could be .Maybe the newer Rams do not have that notch , my son has a 2022 Ram 3500 Crew cab , I’ll have to look .
As far as bed length the MegaCab has the same length bed as the crew cab , they both are 6’-4” , so as far as losing bed space they are the same . Unless as I know you don’t like the short beds , and that’s what you are saying .
Thank you. Appreciate that insight with you having a Mega Cab.- FWIW, The Mega's rear seats do recline.

Aside from losing bed space you also lose payload. Consider that.
Please explain.
Heavier cab reduces the payload.
Payload Mine 5,680 Mega 5,480 loss of only 200#
Not enough to make any difference IMHO.
Anyway it's nice to have options!!!- The OP is considering a Mega Cab because the rear seats recline in which non of the other crew cab rear seats do this.
