Show us your rigs...

[Wilhelm]

Extra Heavy Duty rig, 0.4T load rated, I am pretty certain I hauled at least twice that.
Wheelbarrow for scale (4x8" tires on both).
Very storage efficient.

you get the ho or just the standard one

Standard one. They didn’t have any 3500s left there with the employee pricing discounts. It’s a slug compared to the power stroke honestly.

 

[Steve]

Did you buy the last 6-speed ram in the country?

Good looking truck nevertheless!

Does that mean you got stuck with coil springs on the rear and the 68rfe?

my guess is yes on the 68rfe

 

[mdavlee]

Yes on both. It has a lot stiffer suspension lodes than the Ford. The tow capacity is 19100 if I looked at the chart right. I don’t mind the 68. It’s easily built and tuned. Coil springs I’m still not sure of.

No I haven’t seen a new one on any lot. I would consider it but the highway cruising rpm was awful the last one I had with 3.73 gears.

That’s probably going to have to happen.

 

[Deets066]

finally got some decent meats under mine

Don’t get caught that’s a heck of a fine they’ve been tossing out, I know on some of the equipment that’s been deleted and tuned has burnt the engine down.

Scary with a load in the bed. I would say that airbags are a must on the 2500.

No more 6 speed manuals in the ‘19-up trucks... they discontinued the manual trans.

I’d guess that the 1000 lb. ft. trucks are probably pretty fast.

I would hope so. At least loaded up with a big trailer or camper. That was what I wanted but the area had been depleted of new ones the past few weeks.

I would bet these trucks are cooler running deleted. I know I’ve heard weird popping noises when stopping while in regen that made me wonder if it would be on fire when I came back out. I wish they’d roll back the standards to 2010 or even 2007 and let these engines be long lasting like we buy them for.

The tier 4 stuff with def you don’t see the issues in that big 9 liter we were told 20k hours is the expected life of them.

My Ford was getting into 6-8 gallons of DEF every 2500 miles not towing anything. Constant regents and horrible mileage compared to what it was getting. It’s not a major problem til it gets full and leaves me stranded in Kadoka South Dakota or something place like that.
