I think the point of his questions was to get folks all riled up.. Some people are just like that. No real purpose just want to see people get riled. You know kind of like an appendix . Doesn't really do anything except make you sick..... Yes, I asked this question just to rile you up, how did you know??? For the people who actually contributed to the topic, thanks..359Views0likes0CommentsRe: 1/2 ton trucks?

Just made frequent stops at the scales to check my weights. Also used it to pull a 3500-lb cargo trailer. Pulled just fine. Wow, how did that do when it was windy? Nice looking setup and family by the way.450Views0likes0CommentsRe: 1/2 ton trucks?

Just looking for opinions on 1/2 ton trucks. Seems most people on here have bigger trucks or recommend trucks larger than 1/2 tons when it comes to towing TH's or TT's.449Views0likes0CommentsRe: Small divided toy hauler
Coachmen 301BLDS has a glass sliding door. The Hyper Lite 27 HFS has a separate garage but not a sliding glass door. What do you want to know about bumper pull TH's? I've been researching them for about two months now. I stopped looking as of today, My 08 Ram 1500 won't tow anything. Your tow vehicle is important, what are you looking to get?623Views0likes0CommentsRe: Advice ?
The inside of the door jam says up to 8750. It does have the tow pkg with the 3.92 gears and the 5.7L Hemi. This is off my build sheet: AHC Trailer Tow Group DGQ 5-Spd Automatic 545RFE Transmission DMHS 3.92 Rear Axle Ratio DRBS Corporate 9.25 LD Rear Axle EZB 5.7L V8 HEMI MDS Engine NHBP Auxiliary Transmission Oil Cooler NMCP Heavy Duty Engine Cooling SHAS Front Stabilizer Bar XFHP Class IV Receiver Hitch XFKP 7 Pin Wiring Harness XFUS Trailer Tow w/4-Pin Connector Wiring It says the following but since the previous owner put a lift on it I'm not sure if this still applies: SFBS Front Heavy Duty Shock Absorbers SGBS Rear Heavy Duty Shock Absorbers So, that's what my truck has, this is straight off the build sheet from Dodge, of course there's a lot more but I didn't include stuff like the seats and interior color etc.366Views0likes0Comments
