Well, I've never been more indecisive on a major decision. Ram, Chevy, Ford, they all have issues and they all gouge you to get a good looking truck (night edition, trail boss, tremor, anything with non-chrome bumpers...) in my opinion. Despite the transmission issues on the chevy/gmc and I...

You' are correct. In the name of payload, no sunroof, no power running boards, debating skid plates as they are removable. Laramie is as high in the trim level I want to go. Considered a BigHorn thinking it might be lighter but by the time I add most of the options I don't know if it would...

I've been researching it on the interweb but not finding much on it. My dealer looked at the payload stickers of a couple of 2026 Laramies and reported the ~3544 lb number. He has a couple of 2025 Laramie trucks close to $4,000 lbs. The build site really should be able to tally up the weight...

No interest in a dually here. Great question about whether I really need a diesel. Currently no, as my trailer is 7k GVWR but in a few years we plan to get a 5th wheel in the 14k lb range. I'd prefer to go gas cause it will be my everyday truck though I work from home and do about 8k miles a...
