    Shuddering with load

    I have 5,000 miles on my new 2018 3500 DRW. I noticed when I'm loaded with my trailer and starting off and turning it shudders pretty hard. Same thing when reversing from a stop and have the wheels slightly turned. Is this normal? It's pretty much done it since day one. I'm guessing something to...

    2018 Aisin shifting issue

    I just picked up a 2018 Ram 3500 DRW Tradesman with the Aisin transmission and 4.10 gears. I do a lot of hauling on the road. Cruising at 70 mph sets me at 2,000 rpm's which is higher than I like so I'm feeling a little regret. Did I make a good choice? Wondering how hard of a hit I'm going to...
