Weigh the truck with all passengers and full tanks and subtract from the gross vehicle weigh will tell you how much you can carry. The coil springs would be a smoother ride. I would recommend an anti sway bar though.Re: Ram 3500 2011 to a 2016 Ram 3500 Vinsil wrote: 2BLAZERS wrote: Nautique200 wrote: The HD update is not slated until the 2018 model year. 2017 will be the 1500.

Buy exactly what I want brand new, take it up to about 100K miles and than boom, new one :) That is one way to do it! :) First was a 1982 Chevy diesel Current is a 2002 Dodge diesel Still have to wait to 2022...New Style BatteriesHere in the camping world we seem to still be stuck with the old lead acid batteries, 6 volt or 12 volt. With the development of new battery technologies is there any better powerfull and long lasting batteries out there or on the horizon?Re: Problems with Class Bs used as second cars where restricted.My mom's 55 and over neighborhood was very strict on anything that looked like an RV, even pickups with camper shells were banned if the shell was above the cab on the truck. The wildest thing they did was when I was staying with mom when she was sick was telling us to remove my "derelict" 51 Ford Woodie. They considered the car to old for the neighborhood.Re: Can you use your camper with the slideout not out? pjay9 wrote: Surf...you got a flat-head in the woody?

The specs are very optomistic with any camper, I have found them to weigh more. The spec is dry weight with zero options, then add the weight of the options.Re: Everything Was Going So Well.....Until It Wasn'tPark your truck?
