    2018 Ram 3500 Expedition Family Adventure Vehicle

    That's really impressive. 68° is like at home comfort, not like "comfortable for camping" comfort. The fact you were out 5 days and only dropped by ~1 gal is pretty impressive. I was looking at the smaller units from them for my truck bed (I don't need much) and to say they sip propane is an...

    What size propane tank, 5lb? What did you have the temp set at if I can ask?

    Looking for recommendations on a family hauler/tow rig/occasional camp vehicle

    Agree with @Kingsize24, the GMT900s are nice looking vehicles, but the build quality took a serious dive and as it was the early years of the AFM stuff they are far more prone to issue. You can replace the lifters with solid conversions and tune it off, but it's additional cost and work...

    2018 Ram 3500 Expedition Family Adventure Vehicle

    Man, this build is gonna look so amazing when it's done. It looks great now, but once you get that trailer paint matched it is gonna be damn near perfection.

    BFGoodrich KO3 coming soon!

    I've had KO2s in the past and so long as they are sized correctly for the vehicle I've been mostly pleased with them. That said, I think there is much new tire tech available today, and you can see the evolution of some of that with the KO3s. I like the tighter spacing of the center lugs in the...

    BFGoodrich KO3 coming soon!

    I did see those, and overall they seem like nothing but improvements. That said, They sadly don't offer a 38-39" and I was hoping to get a bit of a larger tire. BFG is the only brand that offers a 39" AT as it stands, hence why I'm holding out for their KO3. Now, I've seen that the BFGs are...

    BFGoodrich KO3 coming soon!

    I know this post is close to a year old but I've been looking at my next tire as my Falken AT3Ws are wearing a bit odd and getting louder, not much tread left so overall mostly happy with them. I've been eyeing a step up to the "39s" in the KO2 and that lead me to see the KO3, which appears to...

    2022 RAM 5500 Composite "Super Camper"

    Looks good. I know in the 2/3500s there is normally a jack and funnel under the pass seat. I take it that stuff wasn't there for the 5500 or did you just strip it?

    Thats a good amount of juice, man that battery is huge!. That AC unit is super low profile, which is nice.

    Oh ********! It doubles as a PT holder! *quietly moves from "save for later" to cart*

    2018 Ram 3500 Expedition Family Adventure Vehicle

    Haha, I just meant "what do you use the laptop for as part of your travels that you have it hard mounted up there". Sounds like it's literally just a general purpose laptop, which is cool, I was just curious if you had an interesting use case for it.

    2018 Ram 3500 Expedition Family Adventure Vehicle

    Those toyos are meaty for sure. Two questions for you. #1 how do you like the software on that garmin overlander? I've toyed with picking up the tread for nav on my 2500 as I really enjoy the garmin I've got for towing a trailer in my dually. Thought it may be a nice unit to swap between my 2500...

    3500 RAM Prospector + Alu Cabin + Custom Bed

    The E and D ratings today really don't matter too much past the sidewall stiffness. The bigger thing is the weight rating of the tire. For example, the stock Nexen tires on the HD trucks are rated for 3640lbs per tire, where as a 37x12.5x17 Falken AT3W is rated at 3970lbs, comparing E to E tire...

    3500 RAM Prospector + Alu Cabin + Custom Bed

    So that's even more to the case of the total additions being higher in weight than the loss of payload. I wonder why. I think that generally speaking, weight is counter to offroad performance for sure. What you need to be thinking is "this thing needs tracks for the snow", at least that is...

    I'm BACK!!! 2023 F-250 Tremor build

    Hey, could you two do me a favor and keep it down in here. I'm trying to build my 2500 out and your conversation is turning into an intrusive thought… *wipes drool*

    3500 RAM Prospector + Alu Cabin + Custom Bed

    That is less than I expected. I guess that is one benefit with working directly with the OEMs, you get some ability to provide greater accuracy for numbers. Only 420lbs lost over factory. 37" tires prob weigh around 100lbs more for all 4. 16.5Ti has to be 100lbs. The AEV front bumper weighs...

    3500 RAM Prospector + Alu Cabin + Custom Bed

    My only concern with the stock air filter would be worry about it getting caked with snow, and I don't think the sy-klone would have that same issue. Thanks for providing the product data Chet! I'm curious as to why AEV has decided to stop selling it.

    3500 RAM Prospector + Alu Cabin + Custom Bed

    Somewhat related, what made you decide to go with the standard intake over the prefilter? I plan on doing this mod in the next year or two and I plan to leverage the sy-klone pre-filter that is offered.

    Falken Wildpeak AT4W

    I enjoy my AT3Ws on my 2500 dodge right now, but they are def a little on the loud side for the highway, especially as they age. Not a huge deal but kind of surprising considering how tame the tread is. Overall, pretty happy with their performance on and off road, and in the hard packed and...

    Differences Ram 2/3500 and 4/5500

    I can't recall the exact updates for the frame, but if I recall they discuss it in this video by TFL truck (link). I also don't know enough of the details on the 2500/3500 vs 4500/5500 past what has been discussed already. A few things I'll call out between the 2500 and 3500. As was mentioned...
