I bought this truck to tow my off-road truck. The Jeep and trailer are about 7500lbs with gear. Trailer uses a pintal style hitch so no weight distributing capability. My previous tow vehicle just didn't feel like it was enough even with Air Lift air bags. (Jeep Grand Cherokee). This truck is considerable bigger, wider and has bigger motor.

So my question. If I'm looking for 800 to 1000lbs tonque weight should add air lift air bags? How much help with load do the air levelling shocks do? Any other general suggestions beside a lighter trailer and a ball style hitch ;)

  $3.88/87 lowest I see local, lowest diesel $5.39 most places $5.50s. I saw 1 local station that had the balls to be charging $5.75 for 87. I spent $190 filling the car and truck this afternoon

  Well it was a short live “fix”. Got in the truck this afternoon to same no audio issue. Tried the steering wheel reset, nope. Tried restarting in “safe mode”, nope. This time I wasn’t in a rush so I drove straight to the dealership, didn’t turn it off so they could see( which this is now the 7th video I took of it happening). They ran their code scanner, came back and said the next step is replacing the radio which they ordered and should be in next week… 🤦‍♂️

  Yes it can be a challenge for obvious reasons. Remember when people were blocked on websites during the last administration if you didn’t agree. Being retired I can scan all the sites and podcasts. I start in the morning with Glen beck during my walk. Then I watch Orielly that I recorded the night before. I scan the headlines on Newsmax, and News Nation. News Nation has Como so it’s diverse. Weekly him and Orielly have debates sometimes Steven A is along for the ride. My nightcap is Jesse Watters for comic relief. Then it’s the Astros, that’s been disappointing. Sometimes Greg Kelly if the Astros are getting blown out.
