I’m sure everyone knows by now that Anderson 5th wheel hitch was in a law suit following an accident several years ago-and there are strong opinions about that hitch. But Anderson also makes a WDH for travel trailers that has revolutionized the TT industry (use of lighter weight components to...

I had extreme hopping with a Canyon diesel 6’ bed with Timbren stops on the rear pulling a 6000 lb trailer. Happened only on concrete roads and smoothed out on asphalt. I concluded that it was a combination of tongue weight and light truck bed weight aggravated by Timbren bounce. I ended up...

I love the Revos 3. They are quiet and drive well. The only issue is Costco will put in 80lbs in the rear tires based on maximum manufacture payload. For a HD that isn’t hauling the max it’s grossly over inflated. Instead of arguing with them I simply adjusted to 65lbs all around.

Nope-in the group that did not get one. But found a brand new Jeep tow strap and front grill cover. Maybe I’m ahead! Ha

Ah okay, didn’t know that. I bought my Big Horn used but I will check compartments again and under the passenger seat. Thanks

I upgraded to a HD Ram but my Andersen hitch, my bike rack, my motorcycle carrier and my hitchsafe all use 2” receivers. I currently have a 4” rack on my Andersen hitch and won’t really know until I can get to the trailer (currently snowed-in at storage) to measure whether or not I need an 8”...

Got it. Thanks for the heads up-I’ll keep an eye out for the vinyl to lift. They apparently need to use a different glue or more of it because I noticed their logo on top of the vinyl is coming off my week old cover. I hope that’s not a sign of things to come!

Here is another thought. If your travel trailer has a pre-wired for Furrion camera mount you can buy a wireless camera that fits the mount and a remote digital display that fits over your existing mirror essentially by-passing your current mirror when towing. There are several companies that...

An inexpensive rail system for a truck with a tonneau cover is to buy a uni-strut from a hardware store. A 10 ft strut is about $20 maybe less for the lighter weight one. They are used for various applications but mostly for holding conduit or plumbing. They can be cut to length, have caps for...

I had that issue with my BAK Revolver roll up-where the black nylon fabric fell off during hot weather. I just ordered another one from Real Truck and was pleasantly surprised that they have upgraded the fabric to a black rubber that is fixed to the aluminum slots underneath which will solve my...

I just completed the installation of a VAVA dash cam in my HD 2500 Ram. I utizilied the switched circuit in the overhead console. Thought I would share a YouTube video of the installation which identifies the purple switched wire to tap into for a switched power source.

Welcome from Washington State. Look forward to hear how you like your Ram 2500.

Hey Crimecruncher, Welcome--I just bought a 2020 HD too. I traded a GMC Canyon diesel for this Big Horn Crew Cab with 28K miles-just joined this forum a few minutes ago. I purchased from a dealership in the Tri Cities, WA last week which is about 150 miles south of where I live--got 24 mpg...
