Hahaha. They become simple to change after a while. Easiest way depending on side is remove airbox or battery. I don't bother with them most of the time. Use a screw driver or long pliers to get the socket out of the cranny. And there is minimal slack on those wires. Did find out the wiring harness is clipped to the back of the headlight when replacing do to deer damage. I pulled that clip off after replace whole headlight giving more slack to the bulb socket.

To me that damage looks minimal for that speed.

Iowa 80 TA west of davenport nearer to Illinois

Stopped at World's largest Truck stop.

693,828 - #8 glow plug replaced, leak in left front axle seal, both front axle seals replaced.

I have saved a few tires thanks to tpms. It'll show low pressure way before the tire looks flat.

And the truck has over 693,000 miles on it know

Thats what the golden Bowtie is worth.

This is a Cab over. Cab over engine.

Never heard of a Ram Cab Over. Gotta pic?

Stopped at "Business Elite" GM dealer to ask about New Cab Over and they be like WTF you talking about, get outta here.

You can argue that about chains. I don't own the trailer and actual owner should really shorten. I go through weight stations all the time. Inspected 3 times and was never told, questioned or ticketed for twisting chains. The only concern is they don't drag. Just haul campers.

I pull strictly Forest River trailers. There is a lot of different brands. Mainly Grey Wolf line. Not a bad trailer, kind of basic. Fiberglass sides are better for economy. Rounded fronts do well. Length really doesn't affect economy that much. Height does. I find the long ones for the most part more stable. Fifth wheels typical do better for economy if you factor in the extra weight over a bumper pull. That Rockwood was a really nice trailer. Forest River owns Palomino (fan of the Sabre line) and Coachmen. http://www.forestriverinc.com/Index.aspx Usually you get what you pay for with these. The ones that cost more are better quality. Not a fan of the V front trailers. I find those don't handle wind as well. The truck is cutting the wind, all the high V does is grab more crosswind.

Recent haul Hitch set up. Keep in mind my truck has an over built rear suspension. 2.5" Receiver and ball mount are rate 1800 tongue weight and 18000 trailer weight. Basics Long Lock supports electric and brake away from dragging. Brake away hooked to bumper separate from receiver. (can't really see from pict) Chain hooks are always brought up from bottom. The reason for this has to do with how the chains respond to jerk if trailer ever does come lose. The other way there is a possibility of the chains becoming separated also. Chains are twisted individually to reduce slack. And are crossed just because some States have that law I see no reason other than that to do so. They are hooked to the trailer in the same spot.

Doing a few thousand miles on I-80 for days. Wyoming is windy. PITA pulling a camper.

Topped 13000 run hours.

I'm told high copper on new truck is from oil cooler. New coolers leech copper into oil.

Demo lite at night. Before front After front After with Head lights on Before rear After rear I think they differently compensate for GM not properly marking the sides of the truck.

Pulled the tail lights and sprayed some rust stop in there. And some on bottom inside of tailgate. Thinking of adding 6" LED clearance bars on sides. Front ember/rear red with signals and running lights. There is just a clamp holding it on right now. Whatcha think?

What tires?

Mine doesn't leak or burn oil. Has had a few seals replaced back in the warranty days though.

I have always wanted a G8

Needs red wheels.

All the campers haulers do this. Company has a DOT number but trucks are leased on and registered 26k. I don't know if company gets bill for the added tax. They don't tell us we can't buy it like that.

Passed 690k miles today.
