    Adding extra weight to the truck - need some advice

    It would be GVWR 7100lbs. If it is a 5th Gen. Your door sticker will have your payload and GVWR Subtract payload from the GVWR and you will get your trucks base weight. Base weight is an empty truck with full fluids. Your front axle rating will be 3900 and your rear will be 4100. For the 5th...

    I want to see the Rams

    I was going to state that in my post...but that again leads to another Rabbit hole. And I also believe...is another great reason in the factory Cummins Powerwagon debate. It makes no sense for RAM to do it. But I am over that discussion..lol And it still boils down to the age old discussion...

    The prospectors XL from AEV is a Cummins Powerwagon. When you are building a vehicle...you can do what you want. When you are buying a vehicle...

    I want to see the Rams

    My guess is...the HeftyDuty RAM with a Cummins is made and designed for optimal cooling. Moving the intercooler anywhere else will lower this. The engine is not the only weight gain. You got the exhaust all the extra nannies the DEF tank etc. Then you have the already ridiculous amount of...

    I want to see the Rams

    A powerwagon has a payload of about 1200lbs. The Diesel weighs about 800 lbs more than the HEMI. And the intercooler is where the winch goes.

    Full size rigs! who's got em?

    Thanks for that info. RAM does not do that. Our tire and loading sticker bluntly says payload is passengers cargo and accessories. Interesting.

    Full size rigs! who's got em?

    Unless ford is doing something different...there is no driver weight in the payload calculation. The driver weight comes into play when figuring max towing. They allow 150lbs for driver and 150lbs for passenger...i weigh 295...ao my passenger is a big gulp soda.

    Full size rigs! who's got em?

    GVWR is the max weight at which your brakes, steering and suspension are rated to perform. Payload is the suggested number for stuff you can add to, load in...including passengers. Curb weight is your empty vehicle with full fluids...so a full tank of gas. To easily find your curb...

    Hey PA guy looking for trails

    From the looks of some of the fire rings I saw on the driveable trails in both Rothrock and Bald Eagle. I think there is quite a bit of stealth camping... My son and I are on the search to hit the firetowers in Moshannon. We hit the ones in Rothrock...

    Hey PA guy looking for trails

    I have contacted all the state forests and got their day use maps and motorized camping maps. Then I just head off. The purple lizard maps are alot easier to use though.

    Hey PA guy looking for trails

    @PennStateTaco Rothrock is connected to it and offers the same. It only has 8 motorized campsites. Moshannon State forest has motorized campsites and the same type of terrain...although not as much overgrowth. Elk has alot to see. Of course the pine creek area...pa grand canyon has plenty...
