Since June last year Rockwood 2616bh https://forestriverinc.com/rvs/rockwood-ultra-lite-travel-trailers/2616BH/9654 No longer made the private bunkroom didn't work out but perfect for us.
I have a 2022 6.4 Hemi 2500 four years old today with a Fab Four Matrix front bumper lights and winch and a Rough country rear bumper I installed the rear step. I really recommend it for anyone and they are cheap on Amazon and a very easy 30 minute job putting them on. It was a "chip" affected model so I wasn't able to get the power fold mirrors as Laramies are supposed to have but that was all. Other than that pretty well loaded for a 22 but NO auto shut off, thank god. I hate that on my jeep. I have 3.73 gears they are perfect for what I do. And, I am surprisingly close to the same mileage towing as my old 1500. Both suck but hey I knew it going in...
It's a Laramie 3K payload 15K max tow. we live in MT live at 4400 feet seldom drop below that due to where we tow. Plenty of power loaded with the Hemi. The trailer has a loaded Tongue weight of 1175, 8300ish loaded max tow weight, tortion axles, Good Year trailer tires. Have an equalizer WDH. Lovin it. I think I have my previous trailer posted in this thread also and the truck w/bumpers in What did I do to my Ram. I also got the AEV power steps and love them. But not as much as my wife. everything is looking good at four years. Only "wishes" I have would be the power fold mirrors and blind spot monitor, Uconnect 4 instead of 5, maybe a sunroof but never used em when I had them more than a few times and Ram boxes. I grew to love them on my old 1500.
After the first year as a daily driver I had to get a jeep for daily driving as an HD is a real beast in parking lotsso the truck is just under 40K miles and these days 75% towing. We do around 9 to 10K miles per year. I love this truck. I sure would have liked a gen five 1500 sized crew cab but the it's fine and thus a 4.5. I have KO2's on the truck and after putting them on at 18K, THEN realized just how bad the OEM Firestone "Transforce" ones truly are.
Love the 4WD package. We don't do much or super hard core four wheelin, but the after market add ons winch and the 4WD package definitely extend our ability to see the sights and be confident. the front bumper shrugged off one deer that would have totaled an OEM bumper. But then all you gotta do is look 'real hard" at the OEM bumpers on any Ram and they are totaled.
