I traded my 22 Gladiator max tow for a 21 Big Horn 5.7 because I wasn't happy pulling our 26' 5,500lb travel trailer around the Western US. How long will it take to work out the bugs of the new twin turbo I6. I like my V8, second only to my 6.7 Cummins that I never should have let go. I will say...
I would just like to add that I personally never go by dry weight on a trailer. Wether you travel with empty tanks or not, when you load up for camping, your trailer will be close to gvwr. Our travel trailer's dry weight is 4,000 and some change, while the gvwr is 5,500lbs. We do travel with 10...
Traded my 2018 CTD Big Horn for a 22 Gladiator max tow when we were able to trade out POS 5th wheel for a 24' travel trailer. I thought I would be able to build the gladiator a little at a time to pull the trailer and do some medium wheeling. Since I'm retired and have limited funds and have a...
I gained 300 lbs, the gladiator was 1,476 I think.
Well I have a 05 TJR for doing my Jeep thing and my wife has a 2018 JLU. After pulling our travel trailer a few times, I feel the Ram will do a better job with the 5.7 and be a more comfortable ride all around.
The picture was taken when we were picking the trailer up. The trailer was empty, and it did set pretty level. Loaded for traveling it would squat about an inch past level? I will be adding air suspension to help the softer Ram suspension.
After reading and posting in PDiddy's post about switching to a 1500 Ram, it kind of intrigued me. The fact that my wife wasn't truly happy with my purchase of my Gladiator, I thought I would check out the 1500's myself. Since she owns a 2018 JLU and I have a 2005 TJR to do my wheeling with, I...
Gave it a good bath at the self car wash and then the drive thru car wash. Then vacuumed and detailed the inside at home. Spent 4 days camping at Bonita Canyon campground at the Chiricahua National Monument in South East Arizona.
I haven't used cb since I was truck driver some 12 years ago, and then when you were near a big city you had to deal with all the idiots with linears. We've been using gmrs HT's when traveling with another vehicle and I much prefer gmrs. I just installed a mxt275 in my TJR and will eventually...
I went from a 2018 CTD Big Horn to a 2022 Jeep Gladiator Max Tow and as comfortable as the Ram was, I'm really enjoying my Gladiator. Even though parking wasn't that hard for me since I was used to parking 53' semi truck and trailers, the Gladiator is just so much better. And it does an...
