RE: SRW vs DRW
"It would be nice if they could get the vehicles for their test at the same time so the test would be in the same conditions."
I agree, I would also like them to fill to the top not the silly click method.

RE: TV tire life
Oh goody, another tire thread. The only way it could be better is if they're on an EV.
EV's don't have tires - isn't there petroleum products in tires? EV's are green, therefore no petroleum or anything that could harm the environment...
GREEN? HA, furthest from the truth.

RE: SRW vs DRW
If you have more contact surface, you'll have more friction/braking. That's why race cars have very wide tires: bigger tires=better grip.
The contact patch width of my skinny rear tires combined is not much wider than modern 3500 srw tires.

RE: SRW vs DRW
I drive a Dually and tow more with much more weight than most. I don’t see the DRW stopping better as the 3500 SRW has the same brakes.
Truck stops truck and trailer stops trailer.

RE: SRW vs DRW
"2018 montana 305RL - 14,270LBS loaded weight, 2395lbs pin weight
19FT crestliner sportfish - 3800LBS loaded weight/trailer, 300LBS tounge weight. on a tandem axle trailer, 23FT overall length
Don't believe the RV pin weight, is this a fact or a guess??? Boat trailer is light on the pin.
That said if you are at or under your RAWR let er rip!!!
Also truck stops truck, RV stops RV and Boat trailer stops Boat trailer. If it does not have brakes it sure should!
Hey there, those stats on the camper are pulled directly from the placard on the camper itself so i imagine they have to be close
NO they don't!!!
Don't think I have ever seen a published "loaded" pin weight.
20% generally is a minimum and many times 25% loaded pin.
I think that having a rzr loaded (behind the axle) into my tow hauler lightens my pin weight - should be the same for the hitch weight of a boat.
300# hitch weight from the boat will lighten the pin weight by less than 300#.

RE: TV tire life
I easily got 120k on the 03 up Michelin take offs on my 98 2500 4x4. I made it to 150k on the OE rear tires on my 81 VW PU and drove one flat to air up and decided it was time to replace, still had 3/16" tread.

RE: Whats Your Real Weights? Truck and Trailer. The Real Deal
Mine only weights 35,560. Thats full of fuel and hooked to the truck. But then again the truck has 470 gallons of diesel in it.
My Steer axle weights 11,200 lbs

Surprised you are ONLY 1,560# heavier than I am.

RE: Rv-ers prefer Duramax?
Larry,
Not sure Cummins can handle that H90. Maybe one of them Vesper scooters, or a mini bike from late 60's with a 5-10 horizontal Briggs powering it.
Marty
Rough crowd. I had a Yamaha Trail 80 when I was a kid. It was a beast. ;)
Rough crowd?? Nah, it's just the price you pay for being a popular guy! :C
I hope that bad azz trail 80 was not this one?

Where did your sweetie ride? My street Honda 65 had a double seat that many a foxy lady climbed onto. :

It was all red but very similar to that. Took it camping as a teenager and explored the forest service roads.
