The RAM bug bites again
Well I had an 03 Ram 1500 Sport in 05-07 that I bought used. I sold it when I paid it off because I couldn't handle the underpowered 4.7L any longer. Well I loved the truck aside from the powerplant. I bought a used F150 and loved the power that the 5.4L had, until I drove a new RAM. The Hemi is an awesome piece of engineering and I had to have one. I Sold the F150 and bought a like new 08 RAM Sport Hemi fully loaded QC 3.92 LS Rear end, Sunburst Orange, Tow Package, etc. It is an awesome truck and I couldn't be happier. I am excited to tow my RV with this new truck and give a comparison from my 02 F150 5.4L Lariat. It's good to be back.
The RV is a 27 ft. Tahoe trailer. It weighs 6300 lbs dry, and fully loaded at about 8200 lbs. The Ford did okay, but it was just about maxed out and I had to add-a-leaf to handle the weight. I am going to hook up the trailer this weekend and see how the RAM does. I don't think I will be disappointed based on the torque comparison from just driving around town in the RAM.
Towing that much weight you should probably install airbags and get a tuner just for good measure. I think so far the tuner was the best investment for my truck. Changing the shift points alone is what made me so happy with it.
congrats on the New Ram I am sure you will have no problem with that trailer. and if you want to make it even better just listen to the guys here, They know how to get every horse in line and put it to the ground.
