    Questions about my truck's capacities?

    Reason? We like it. We like the extra space for the dogs, and for stuff. Apparently, it is located somewhere in the rear suspension area of the truck. Put there when built at the RAM factory. With a operating switch in the dash of the truck. It provides auto-rear-leveling when there is a...

    Questions about my truck's capacities?

    Yes, you're right. The RAWR is 9,750. We did get the factory pucks, if that's what you mean? And also auto leveling rear air package.

    Buying 2019 RAM 3500 DRW - discount expectations?

    Truck hasn't arrived yet, so that's an option to consider when we sit down with the F&I guy. We don't usually keep vehicles beyond the factory warranty period - but is the MaxCare warranty something we should have, for sure? Can it be purchased later? What is the most that we should pay for it?

    Buying 2019 RAM 3500 DRW - discount expectations?

    I could live without the emblem on the hood. But it doesn't bother me. The grill... to my eyes, that's the best-looking front-end, of any recent year truck, by any maker, I've ever seen! :)

    Buying 2019 RAM 3500 DRW - discount expectations?

    Well, I finally got it all dialed in as to what I wanted. And, struck a deal. $86,645 MSRP $74,621 DEAL and no quibbling on getting good value for my trade. It's not a "steal" but considering that there isn't one other truck that we want, with the features we want, and the colors we want within...

    Buying 2019 RAM 3500 DRW - discount expectations?

    I'm looking at a RAM 3500 DRW with MSRP of 85,845 and an advertised price of 73,804. Which is about 14% off MSRP. Does anyone have any idea if I might reasonably get a deal paying somewhat less than that, for such a truck?

    RAM options for towing 5th wheel - advice requested

    Oh man... have you seen those YouTube videos of people driving RVs under "low" overpasses. Some of them seem to think that if they just drive slowly, it will be ok. :eek: Eye opening videos to watch. I kept a height note beside me when I was traveling with my 43' diesel pusher also. Smart...

    Auto Level Airbags for 5th wheel & Ram boxes?

    Thing is, you can get a much better deal on a truck that's already in inventory - if you can get what you want that way.

    Auto Level Airbags for 5th wheel & Ram boxes?

    Thank you everyone for the input! I have decided to hold out for a truck with Auto level air suspension and without Ram boxes! None of my local dealers have a MegaCab DRW short bed so equipped in stock. Seems the ones they had all sold in the last week or so! How often do dealer stocks get...

    RAM options for towing 5th wheel - advice requested

    Auto Leveling Airbag system???? I don't know enough about this feature - can you help? This truck has more than enough towing & payload capacity for my 5th wheel needs, BUT... it does NOT have Auto Leveling Airbags. Should I pass on it for that reason? Or - am I likely to do just fine...

    Auto Level Airbags for 5th wheel & Ram boxes?

    If buying a Ram 3500 MegaCab for towing a 5th wheel, do the auto leveling airbags make a significant difference? Would it be just as good to add them on later - aftermarket - or much better to get the truck with them in the first place. Reason I ask is that I've found a truck that would meet...

    RAM options for towing 5th wheel - advice requested

    Yeah... that sure surprised me. I wonder if someone made a typo somewhere. :eek: NO air bag system, though. Would I regret not getting that? All the other aspects of the build are just what I would want.

    RAM options for towing 5th wheel - advice requested

    I have opened up to the idea of a duellie. We are retired and have no commute. We go into town (North Scottsdale) perhaps a couple of times a week (20 minute drive each way) for groceries or the occasional doctor appointment. So, I figured that perhaps a duellie wouldn't be a big deal for us...

    RAM options for towing 5th wheel - advice requested

    Would it be especially advantageous to get the Aisin transmission vs the standard one? Is it considered to be more trouble-free? And how about the 1000 ft lb vs the 850 ft lb.? Are those two engines considered equally trouble-free?
