Re: Ram 2500 6.4 gas Towing 5th wheel.

My 2019 hemi gets about the same MPG towing my 5er as my old 2004 Cummins. I was surprised when it worked out that way, but it did. Comparing a modern vehicle to a 15 year old vehicle has little value. A lot of innovation occurs in 15 years. Any 2019 vehicle is superior to its 2004 version. That's comparing apples to oranges. Those 2 trucks are not even remotely close.3.1KViews0likes0CommentsRe: Fifth wheel Jerking with gas truck... not as noticeable

There are just as many "why we love the Anderson hitch" articles out there as well. Most people simply hate the Anderson hitch because of stuff they read on the internet which is ALWAYS overblown and exaggerated. Almost none of their reasons come from first-hand knowledge, just hearsay. ANDERSEN HITCH FAILURE RATE It’s impossible to determine the exact failure rate of Andersen hitches as the majority are only minor and go unreported. Most drivers deal with the hitch failure themselves without reporting it or taking Andersen to court. There have been no major court cases involving damages caused by an Andersen failure.1.1KViews0likes0CommentsRe: MGVWR and problems titling trailer

If you really are over that much, strip the trailer and then hit the CAT scale again. When you are good there head to the DMV with the CAT scale ticket in hand. Then you can get it licensed for your trip. Thanks! Heading to a CAT scale on Saturday. Everyone I talk to from the dealer to the DMV say they have never seen this happen before. IDK .... weird for sure. Please let us know the outcome with your problem.802Views0likes0CommentsRe: Ram 6.7 no start

Probably doesn't want to admit that one or both batteries was bad like everyone tired to tell him.264Views0likes0CommentsRe: RV wind deflectors do they work we will see

Many times we have pulled 1400 plus miles before filling. I pull between 60 and 70 mph. So if you're comparing Imperial gallons to U.S. gallons perhaps you're also measuring kilometers traveled and KPH. So those 1400 "miles" you claim to have gotten only equal out to 869.91 actual miles. That I can believe.942Views0likes0CommentsRe: RV wind deflectors do they work we will see
fj12ryder wrote: Okay, that makes a bit more sense since the Imperial gallon is about 20% larger than the US gallon. That translates to around 11 mpg. I can believe that. Nope. An imperial gallon is equal to 1.20095 U.S gallons so it is smaller.942Views0likes0Comments
