    Does anyone know if you can add a factory trailer brake controller?

    sure can... easy to install. Well all but 1 bolt is PIA. but yes it can be done. if memory serves me correct, you need to enable it in computer.

    CTD Flaw: Heater Grid Bolt

    why do you say your draining the batteries. With the size of double batteries, i think your far from draining them. Using them, sure. draining. don't think so. Is that what you meant by "draining"?

    12V charging through 7-way connector

    Yup, mine is that way... Battery wont matter at all. Oh by the way, turn off the Propane when you are done for the weekend and empty the fridge. Forgot last trip and have 1 empty bottle to fill up... :Stupid Me:

    This is also helpful, the LiFePo batteries will suck all your ALT can put out. killing your alternator. Good to have in the circuit to prevent killing the Trucks Alternator.

    HD coils

    sorry you think the coils are garbage. I loved my 2015 1500. Carried loads no issue, even a 6k TT. I did put air bags to level it out. W/O a trailer, that thing drove like a cushy car. We drove it everwhere... Ive got nothing for your request.

    Best reducer for hitch 2.5 to 2 inch. And why did Ram go with 2.5 on this gen?

    exactly... we all like the increased towing capacity.

    RAM 2500 6.4 vs Cummins for Travel Trailer with 7500lb GVWR

    When we got the trailer, and my 1500 was pushing 98k. this was bid deterrent for me. Yes many 5.7 out with no problems. Given the weight and CTD pulling up hills, i went CTD. I dont drive slow, and hated how that 5.7 would scream. I dont know, but imagine the 6.4 will do the same.

    5.7 E torque towing capacity 12,750 when properly equipped*; what does that mean?

    so so true, when i traded in the 1500, started driving the 2500 regularly... wow. so harsh. but its a big truck, not a cadillac like the 1500

    Ya know, it reminds me of restaurants. Ever go to BK and see that nice juice burger on the wall.... Then you open up the wrapper at the table, hmmm not quite the same.
