seeing all the beautiful campers makes me awfully excited to buy one in about 8 months. (traveling working on Wind Turbines)

I want to buy a 40' or so toy hauler to live in 48 weeks a year.

 

I just realized I never posted on this thread. So here it goes:

Truck and 26.5" Fleetwood Prowler at ND in Southbend, IN


In the badlands in South Dakota:


In Yellowstone in Wyoming:

Yeah Max I'll be looking to buy one in about 5-7yrs probably.

 

So, I'm sure I posted in the original thread with my 95 3500 ctd dually. I blew my 2nd gear syncro and didn't feel it to be worth rebuilding a trans in a 14yr old truck knowing if i got into an accident there was a good chance it'd be totaled. So, I sold the truck and picked up my 02 Ford F-250. It was lifted 4in on 35s and towing my Wrangler through the Colorado mountains I could only muster 50mph and saw 11mpg at the best and as low as 9mpg. I started to miss my CTD motor and did a random search in the area and found my new truck. An 06 2500 CTD crew cab short bed 4x4 Laramie. It was a total whim and luckily I signed my loan only an hour before another guy came in with 25k cash to buy it for his business. I win!

This truck is hands down a top notch truck. I loved my ford but the milage sucked. So I'm back in a dodge and much happier. I can't wait to haul to Moab again in May to see how much of an improvement I made in trucks, despite the increased payment

Here's a badly edited photo with my also new to me trailer which i downgraded to, to haul my jeep.

 

From all I´ve heard the 2006 RAM´s are the way to go. Everything sorted out and no emission bs. I bet you´ll be very happy with that truck.

 

I am certainly happy with my '06! Everytime I tow, the better it gets! More weight, the better! Can't say enough good about the '06.

New Rig

here is one when i first got the truck. it looks better now!

 

Awesome rig! I love the 4th gens!

 

 

our present rig next a Idaho gold dredge

 

Race,

How do you like the 4th gen for towing your RV? Do you like the new mirror set-up?

 

I really like the new mirrors, I couldn't stand the mirrors on my 04. This is my 1st DRW but it pulled really good. I didn't pull any real steep grades but it had a lot more power than my 04. Exhaust brake is a huge plus allowing me to stay off the brakes, and the trans works perfect. approaching a stop you would think it was a manual transmission, between the exhaust brake and auto down shifting. the only problems I have had is the trailer light problem tipm module and I ordered the modulite to fix this, and it popped a rear center cap along the way

 

On a camping trip last summer. Has large tires now:
