Post your tow vehicle pics here

[doughboy81972]

hello all I figure that I would start this thread so we can all show off our TV's that do the burden work and then are forgoten once you get where you are going. so here is my 1996 Dodge Ram 2500 LB, EC, 2WD

Note from moderator,
Please keep pics to a max 640 width as a favor to those with smaller screens and dial up. "IF" you can not figure out how to make the pics smaller, post them, PM me or hit 'notify moderator' button, say you can not resize pics, and I aka blt2ski/Marty will go in and edit/fix.
Enjoy everyones pics

Upgraded the 5th wheel. She's 12611 dry. RAM pulls it with no issues and the exhaust brake works just as good slowing this down as it did with the old trailer which was significantly lighter.

Just wanted to update my photos since I was finally able to get the trailer hitched up to the new truck.

V6 3.7 XLT XRT. I love the Colour.
I kinda wish the 4 door was in stock but what do ya do. 🙂

Super Cab is still pretty nice, I just use my truck as a people hauler so I needed a full back seat.

Your trailer is only a few hundred lbs lighter than mine with the same GVWR according to Keystone's website. That V6 with a super cab 4WD configuration has only 5500 lbs towing capacity. Just take it slow and easy.

Hey bud. You are exactly right. I have little to no room for error on my weights. I did a rough estimate on my setup.

Apx. Total Weight of Truck & TT
Truck Curb Weight 5300 Lbs
TT Dry Weight +4491 Lbs
Truck & TT Dry Combi= 9791 Lbs
Truck & TT Cargo +1500 Lbs
Total Loaded weight. =11,291 Lbs

I'm maxed at 11,100lbs. Before my 1st trip I'm heading to a CAT and get an accurate number. But I did learn from my drive from the dealership to my home town to drive slow. Makes a world of difference.

Very nice looking truck.
5.0L, Chrome package, XTR package ??? (Canadian :W ), Flame Blue :B.

I'm a bit biased towards this type of truck.
