Giving this a try for the next 4 days... Towed super easy at 60-65 mph loping along at 1500-2000rpm.

Any other thoughts on the pull? I’ve got a 2020 2500 Limited CCSB with the Hemi (it appears that’s exactly what you have) and I’ll be picking up a 30’ Airstream shortly after it arrives. My wife and I will be living in the Airstream full time as we travel the country for the next couple years.

I hope you full time guys and gals post up lots of your experiences. I do not plan to full time for awhile yet, but am always anxious to hear about extended trip options and just how well the full time life is to the dream of it.

I’ll definitely post up here, especially anything truck related. I will be blogging the whole thing though, at the site in my signature.

@jsalbre I added the blog to my reading list of other vehicle dependent travel stories. Good luck. Looks like it is getting started sooner than later for you.

Glad to hear you picked a RAM to embark on this journey. Hope you get one like I have enjoyed for many years.

And here I was worried that the 30’ Airstream we’re planning to FT in was going to be too big!

That’s a nice looking place you’ve got there!

Had a 32’ class A and it was too small

Gorgeous Fiver! Would love to indulge but it'd never fit in many of the places we frequent.
We’ve had smaller trailers when we’d go to state parks and such but now we mainly are at RV resorts. Since selling the house and no more hot tub we need a place that has hot tubs lol

I'll be towing this 28ft camper in the spring with my 2500. We plan to drive across to the Yukon and Alaska next summer and figure it's bit much for the 1500. Camper comes out at about 8000lbs when we have 70 gallons of water, grub, beer and a generator on board.

@AFF nice looking camper! Is that model rated for the extreme cold? What model is it?
