[Bruce Beard]

Lots of research and lots of thought finally led to this...

[Ram4Sam]

That's exactly my reaction! Didn't like it at first but now... It's my favorite

 

[Mingoglia]

Yeah, I'm liking the grill more and more as well. Tailgate badging is still not growing on me however. Great looking truck though. Nothing beats the feeling of walking out to your new truck.

 

[Bruce Beard]

It must be the bliss of new truck ownership...but I'm even beginning to like that RAM tailgate badging...
No mistaking it for anything else!

 

[NIsaacs]

You better not be towing that little itty bitty trailer with that big ole truck Nice!

[KenHwy61]

Nice truck! The new grill is starting grow on me as well. Pulling the camper sure is fun when you got the right truck!

 

[Bruce Beard]

It's not the Bambi, it's all the garbage I insist we haul with us!!!!

Bruce,

Dorsey said, OK now go ahead and get a 30' or 34' Airstream. Got more than enough truck.

Did you manage to wipe that Cummins grin off of your face yet?

Nice truck.

Nice truck.

Actually, Dorsey said that I am not to spend any more money on anything...!
Not for a while anyway...
The "Cummins grin" is just spreading. We drove about 75 miles his afternoon and all I can say is... This thing is amazing!!!
What a machine!

Very nice Bruce!
After a few camping trips you will be ready to lengthen your trailer:-laf:-laf
Are you going to put a cap on the truck? I bought ant an ARE with "windoors" on the sides - works great with a bumper pull trailer.
Our Airstream progression went from 22', 29' to 31'. My truck is a bit older (2009) but seems perfectly tuned for the weight I am hauling - it seems neither over/under kill. I'm just missing the upgrades of the 4th generation trucks.

 

[GCroyle]

Bruce,

Don't know if the ARE cap fits your style or needs, but like crispyboy I put one on mine with the Windoors. Not sure why it took me that long to get it.

Just don't let them willy nilly wire it. Ask me how I know but the cap is darn good.

Dorsey, 30 30 30 30 30 30 you know you want one.

 

[Bruce Beard]

I'm pretty sure that with the RamBox option I can't use any kind of cap...
I wanted the boxes for all of that "stuff" I haul that is constantly getting lost in the bed.
The dealer installed a BakFlip G2 tonneau that is perfect!
Even with the reduced bed width, the 6'4" bed swallowed up all of our stuff with ease. The RamBox's are full of all of the small stuff and life is simply awesome!

My thought exactly.... Think you got enough truck?

 

[Bruce Beard]

My thought exactly.... Think you got enough truck?

Never enough truck!!!

Actually, it is more about load capacity than towing capacity. The Ram will comfortably hold the 1200 or so junk we hail with us. My F-150 is overloaded at 1120 pounds...

 

[SnoKing]

Never enough truck!!!

Until you have a 3500 dually, Aisin and 4:10's! Snoking

I have all those, but now I feel I don't have "enough truck" because my '15 doesn't have the front parking sensors and my tailgate camera is on my rear view mirror, and not the radio. So I already feel I don't have "enough truck" and it may be time to upgrade.

Install a front camera with a LockPick box. You can then see front bumper and move the other cameras between displays. 500 bucks plus or minus!! SNOKING

I'm assuming the front camera has to be turned on manually?

Not completely sure, there is talk about being able to set to be automagically on below 3 MPH in "D". The steering wheel buttons are used to control LockPick functions. SNOKING
