Thanks Jack for asking the question. I’m exhausted with my research. I have a Ram 1500 Big Horn Hemi engine 5.7 v8. Everyone has been very helpful but I find myself a bit unsure as I read posts from someone asking a similar question as the answers vary in a grayish area. I found a travel...

Great advice! We are heading to the sales lot this Saturday to look again with a new lens and all we have learned here!

Thank you so much! I have learned a lot in just two days and it is really helping me as I continue to read and research. Everyone has been so welcoming and willing to help me make appropriate choices especially regarding my truck. Once we find our trailer I definitely will let you all know!

Thank you! I have the Ram 1500 Big Horn Hemi engine. This is the sticker I see by the drivers door. Is this the correct sticker?

Hello! I’m looking to upgrade my current Jayco that sleeps 5 to a trailer that sleeps 8. I’m feeling overwhelmed in my search and thought I would find an RV community where I can seek advice from experienced RVers. I plan to use the trailer during the summer months to vacation with my teenage...
