New Ram 3500

Just traded in my 2016 Ram 2500 6.4 Hemi on this 2018 2500 Cummins. I really like the Pearl White with the Rv brown trim.

Nice looking truck.
One feature of the Ram dually body is the way they tapered the bed fenders out like they weren't added as an afterthought.

Very Nice. It is indeed a beast. Many of us on this forum have this setup. What hitch have you decided to use? I have the Andersen. No complaints. Good Luck to you. Happy Thanksgiving!

Thank you. I’m very excited to have it. I already have a B&W companion that will go with the factory fifth wheel hitch set up. It doesn’t currently have the pucks in the bed floor, but I’m going to add them in like i did to my 2500.

Nice truck! What was the determining factor of trading off the 6.4 2500? Did you have any issues with the 2500?

Thank you. I really loved my 6.4 Hemi, ram boxes, air ride etc, and I had basically no problems out of it. It towed my current trailer very well. However, I am contemplating moving up to a toy hauler in the next year or so and I would need a more capable towing vehicle for that. Also, my job has changed a little and is requiring me to log a lot of miles now. I was concerned that the hemi trade in value would quickly out run what I owed as compared to this set up. Time will tell if I made the right decision.
