    Take gas from truck for generator?

    I have a 22 2500 HD gas, my little Wen generator holds about a gallon of gas. I asked at the GM forum, no help. Seems like that 32 gallon tank should be able to share just a little bit.

    I have a 2016 Ram 2500 diesel 4x4 that pulls a 40FT Sabre 350RL. I need to replace the tires on the truck. I have always used Michelin but never pulled a 5th wheel with my truck. Any thoughts on what brand tires to use for the truck? I hear Cooper tires are good as well as Michelin. Thoughts...

    Truck Camper front air bags

    Air Bags? General question for someone with experience using air bags. Our new 2021 Ram 2500 does fine with our Palimino in back when the boat is also with us. But I found without the boat adding weight it rocked side to side a lot. Beyond just being a minor thing. So I replaced the rear only...

    Anyone else notice this strange seating problem with GM Trucks?

    So I'm thinking of upgrading my set of wheels and would like to get some form of full size pickup in a more recent vintage. Because I'm very tall (6' 10"), I can't just take it for granted that I'll be comfortable in a vehicle just because it's big. I've started the process of sitting in...

    Bought a new One ton. My unicorn of trucks.

    Caution. Very wordy and picture heavy. LOLzzzz. So we bought our Grey Wolf 23MK back in March 2021. Modded my 2017 Ford Expedition XLT EL with max tow to tow our trailer. Over all it kicked ass. Lots of power, tow mode did a great job, comfortable and lots of room for stuff and our dog. I...
