I don't like the electric ones, just big fixed bars and steps.ġ2" Nav: I use the 8.4 without Nav. Running boards: I usually do full length, I like the look better. But if you want one, the difference between OEM and aftermarket is your evaluation of costs, quality, reliability, warranty, and overall utility to your towing needs. Whether they're OEM or aftermarket, I think they can really be quite valuable. So that would point me toward skipping RamBox, or toward saving money by getting the non-HO if I really wanted RamBox.Īutolevel: I'm a fan of these systems. I think most kinds of load where you would need the HO over the non-HO - you would probably need gooseneck or 5th wheel capability for anyway. The non-HO Cummins is a workhorse that does just fine for towing some pretty big loads. Rambox: The big reason for going for the HO is the ability to tow really big loads. (qualifier, I'm not running 3500s anymore, just 2500s) Just my $.02 worth, mostly personal preferences. Have to add, my last truck had the backup camera, which I loved (especially hooking up), but the surround camera system is fantastic. Some later date, I will play with them more. Flickering because of signs on back roads bugged me. Auto high beams lasted less than one night with me. Easy fix by just turning the wipers "on". They sometimes will be too slow, or too fast, and keep alternating between the two. I like the auto wipers, and they work for me about 80-90% of the time. I took them off, and put on steps that are 5-6" (?) lower, and makes it a lot easier to get in. They were only about 2-3" lower than the cab. My truck came with some running boards, but they were useless IMHO. Running boards: The auto ones are great, but I just put some steps on mine (wallet thanked me). Thinking about putting a cargo box in the back with the built in fuel tank, so will have the extra storage if needed anyway. I like the idea of the Ram Box, but I am going to be upgrading my trailer to a 5th wheel later in the year, and wanted the factory 5th/gooseneck prep. Do I need this package to get the regular blind spot warnings or is this just for a trailer? Opinions on this package?īrand new here, and have had my '19 3500 HO CC Shortbed for about 3 weeks. So if you go with the Level 2 package, you get the auto hi beams and auto wipers. If I selected the regular nav screen, would this be a downgrade over this? This thing looks good but like having physical buttons and knobs. Would you do full length boards or just under the cab. I had a set of manual air springs on my F350 and liked being able to level everything out when attached to a trailer. I don't tow any fifth wheels currently, but it's nice to have the option if I wanted to use a different trailer. ![]() The RamBox worth it? I feel this is a great idea, but kinda bummed you can't use the factory fifth wheel or even order the prep package. I guess some of these are probably self explanatory, but would like to hear opinions on some of them. I'm building out a 3500 HO Cummins CC Shortbed and had some questions on the options.
