hello from newbie

[plumberdude]

Hi,
I am new to the forum, I have a 2005 Dodge Turbo Diesal, 2500, now a 1 ton dually. I look forward to visiting with others to learn more about making my truck a performing RV Toyhauler. I now own a Cyclone Toyhauler that is 41ft, weighs 18K.

Welcome to the site.

Hi and to The forum - post up some pics of the truck when you get a chance - the diesel has plenty of torque and should have no problem pulling a 41 ft trailer, I would make sure you have a good trailer braking system installed on the truck, is the truck automatic or manual shifting - I have a 40 ft travel trailer that i pull around with a truck that has a 6.8 v-10 and have no problem at all and your diesel would have more torque than that - is your trailer a fifth wheel or travel trailer (only ask because fifth wheels handle and turn better and as far as travel trailers i have mine set up to ride a little higher in the front than in the rear so it pulls better without the sway from winds {most places that set up your hitch will set it up so the trailer is level instead of a little higher in the front})

Welcome to the site, always glad to see a fellow diesel owner. Just don't go crazy if you chip it, I know a guy who broke his rear end on his 3/4 ton . . . not fun

Hi, I am new too. Just joined the forum. This forum is so informative and I think the members are really very cool.
Plumberdude you are so lucky that you have dodge 2500 truck. Your dodge 2500 makes the driver relaxed and free to drive the vehicle with greater ease.
