Thanks for the kudos guys. We went from 2013 Ram 1500 to this.I can't get the hitch in until Next week.We are taking a truck only trip down to Grand Lake in Oklahoma.
47chevy what kind a fuel mileage are you getting.Told the wife it would do better than the 5.7 hemi.8-10 towing our 32' Chaparral.Maybe in the mid teens truck only.

Should do a lot better towing than 8. Would think in the 12s or better. Later RJD

Good looking truck, you will love it. As far as fuel mileage goes I have been averaging around 13 mpg while towing so I have been pleased with that.

We're on our 2nd Ram dually...have pulled only 5er's...Bighorn...Key Largo and now Cedar Creek....usually 9-10 on level roads....changes drastically once you get into the foothills north GA but handles the grades wonderfully....GL

Congrats and enjoy. Might check your vin# on Ram sight for any recalls.
I took the dive myself last month and replaced our old F350 with a new 2015 Ram 3500 4X4 6.7L diesel
Congrats
I'd post up a pic but there is something wrong with the forum pic download keeps saying 413 error pic to big but it isn't so there having issues.
