Correct descent of a slope
I understand that the wheels in order not to be independent, engage 4wd in low range without blocking the differential? It's also my first winter with my new truck, so far I've used it by default HDC function from my old Amarok and it worked properly even with two curves one of which has 300 gr- DanGab

Correct descent of a slope
I thought I'd give it a try, but I was afraid I would get out of the truck by losing control of my speed. I understand the explanation and I will try next weekend when I get to the cottage. Thanks- DanGab

Correct descent of a slope
That was my problem: how do I go down the slope in extreme conditions (snow, mud) without being on the truck HDC sistem, and the dealer in Romania claims that this system can only be installed on RAM only initially in the factory- DanGab

Correct descent of a slope
This was one of the expected answers because all my trucks were diesel except my new RAM :o) That "holding back" it manifests itself at a much too high speed(aprox 15-20 km/h), unfortunately; this speed can be disastrous at a slope of 40-45% if it is covered with snow. The same snow-covered...- DanGab

Hello, I am the happy owner of a Ram 1500 Laramie from 2019 with Hemi 5.7 engine. In my country (Romania) there are several such trucks, I don't know anyone to exchange informations...My model does not have the HDC function and my question is about the correct descent of a slope without using...- DanGab
