I run 6k pin, that puts me right at 9,750 RAWR.

Unwinding the confusion: I took this quote that you're saying your RAWR is 9,750... I responded mine (RAWR) is 14,706Lbs per Dana and Ram lists 13,500Lbs. Where this got confused (me) is I didn't quote a pin weight as I haven't weighed any of the generator setups I've towed. I'm guessing somewhere between 6K and 7Klbs with the big 1,000 gal fuel tanks on the front. After that, it's the usual mine is bigger than yours.

So....what you’re saying is....your RAWR from DANA is more than @Cummins12V98 ’s entire 3500 truck GVWR?

Ha ha ha.

You know what is really INSANE is how I see hotshotters loading up their Ram 5500s and F550s. Very Heavy 50Klbs 5 and 7 car haulers and oil field loads crazy heavy. One F550 had 3 cars on the bottom and two F350 dualies on top. And not just chugging along... the one I mentioned passed me and disappeared on the horizon. No matter what I tow, 65MPH is my top speed. Sorry no pics... I dont do distracted driving.

I see 3500 dualie P/U haulers too, but also see beds badly dented sides/tailgates... the hauler beds and flat beds much more durable and never see any damaged.

All are good and I'm a truck lover first and Ram lover second. I'm just blown away that these trucks have more than twice the GCWRs than my former 02 Ram 3500 of 21Klbs as I recall, even though I was 28Klbs with it.

Maybe I'd adjust my black edition to a Ram 5500... wouldn't that be a wicked looking beast? Biggest advantage on 5500 is giant brakes... biggest in the field.

Anyhoo, we can ALL brag on our Rams as they rule in their RESPECTIVE classes.

Cheers, Ron
