    Snowplow Mode?!

    I plugged my old plow from my '16 Ram 2500 Hemi into my (new to me) 2020 Ram 2500 Hemi and a nice little message came on the screen asking if I wanted to enable 'Snowplow Mode'. I can't find any reference to it in the manual. Google showed me some Cummins forums and folks said it just runs your...

    Hmmm. Everyone I've consulted has told me the voltage drop is normal on an XV2, I had the OEM alternator changed out a few years back under warranty, and I put in a new battery a year ago. The volt meter goes down to about 11 volts and trips the low voltage warning whenever I move the wings.

    Dual alternators on a Gen 4 5.7 Hemi?

    I have a '16 Ram 2500 with the 5.7 Hemi. I have a Fisher XV2 plow and struggle with voltage dropping when the plow is in use. I've heard of some folks adding a second battery or dual alternators. I know Gen 5s have dual alternators as an option now, but has anyone added a second alternator in a...
