 A couple of pictures of the new trailer attached (the one on the right). The dealer has the two Denali Ultimate one ton SRW's on the lot - a white frost tri-coat and a carbon black metallic. The white frost has the walnut and grey interior - not to shabby. What says this group?

I don't know what the trailer weighs, or what it will weigh loaded. (is there a 3rd axle installed at the location that has an arch but no wheel?)

5th wheel trailer ratings -

2020 3500  crew cab 4wd dmax

 - standard box  21300 

- long box srw 21040

- drw 31180 

- 2500 long box crew cab dmax 18500

 

2wd ratings similar 

 

Huge difference in rating with a drw

Is that a 3811MS you have?

Carbon Black would look good pulling it.

 

Our 3811 is 16400# towing weight, and have been doing it for two years with an '18 2500 and air bags.

Powerhaulic, did you ever pull it before you put the air bags on? If so, how'd it do? Are you putting air bags on your new one once it arrives?

That's just the wheel well of the extended slide-out. Not an extra axle location.

I have traveled some miles with the bags down to 5psi, a bit more bobbing than I like.

But i only run them at 25psi towing normally, it makes a huge difference.

 

I hope to not need then with the 3500 single wheel.

We have a TT and thought about maybe moving to a 5er in the future. The ones we like are in the 2500-2600lb pin weight. Thinking of getting the Reese Goosebox installed, if we do. All are just thoughts at this point. My door sticker is showing a max pin weight of 2490, so that means we would need to find different 5er, though I know most are over the pin weight/payload  recommended for the truck.

Welcome to this forum! No matter which truck you choose it will be a fabulous truck and trailer combination!  The interior of the white truck sounds like a tie breaker!  All I need is to get six numbers right on the lottery and I'll be making similar purchases!

Ahh yes.

I see that now.  Thanks for helping out a non-rv'er.

    • Late reply, but yes—it works on the SLT trim. Compatibility comes down to the plastic shroud shape behind your mirror, not the trim badge itself. On the SLT with auto-dimming, it uses a plug-and-play Y-harness off the mirror/rain sensor power, so no need to run wires down to the OBD port. If anyone's ever unsure about fitment, just drop a photo of your mirror housing and we can double-check it.   Appreciate the detailed feedback on the install! On the windshield glare—we actually took feedback like yours and developed a dedicated CPL (polarizer) filter to cut down dash reflections on sunny days. If you're still running the cam, shoot me a DM. I'd be happy to send a CPL filter over for you to test out—no charge. 
    • There are no stickers in your glovebox?
    • Look at the numbers on the stickers in the door jam...
    • Yes, every time the developer updates his code, you must recompile. I will private message you with the latest because it changes pretty much with every version.
    • After I wrote that reply I went for a ride. 85 F out. So trans started at 85 F and it shifted the same as it did an hour latter at 168 F. I've never actually recorded the to cold to shift point but it is under 32 F before they start hanging on to a lower gear or leaving the converter unlocked. Both intended to heat fluid.    Yes, brake or bake. Absolutely.      Your welcome. True research ended decades ago. Field trials are still in play.    There is a thing called oxidation onset temperature. This is the heat related oxidation not the O2 exposure kind. For mineral oil that starts at 140 F. So what happens after 140 F? Each 20 F cuts fluid life in half! Does using a Full Synthetic improve that? Yes! By how much? Depends on the base oil type and a few other factors. But enough to notice. Some esters are even higher. There are even synergies between types the will raise it higher than any one component is alone.    Then there is "Hindered" oils. Antioxidant additives. Hindered Polyol Esters can sit at 500 F for years in a turbine.   When a blender brags his oil will 'take 500 F" in service he doesn't specify for how long. Water will dance on a 500 F hot plate for several seconds. @newdude put up a chart showing the relationship between fluid temperature and it's life in an automatic transmission. Here's a version of that chart for Group III based oils. These temperatures are those in the pan as observed as 'normal'. that is you drive as you do for as long as you do under what load you ask of it and whatever that temperature is this graph applies to. Flash temperatures of a few minutes isn't what his means.    Note that fluids held at a constant 240 F have a service life of only 20K miles. 220 F explains the factory exchange limit, eh? My equipment I keep under 180 F and I'm good if the cooler will hold it as low as 140 F. But that's me.
