I have been wanting a 3500 for a long time so I find a leftover 2018 slt with 19 miles on it, it also have a factory gooseneck prep package, it's a 2018 3500 Dodge Ram SLT with backup and bed camera. I don't have it yet because I told them that I need to take some stuff off of my 2017 2500 but I should have it by Tuesday.

Personally I would have the truck LOADED with hitch, cargo passengers etc then get the axles weighed.

Thank you guys for all of your comments, well today was pick up and I started putting my stuff that I had in my 2017 2500 into my new 3500, but you know I'm loving it because my payload is 3800 lbs.

Great looking truck. Now take'r down to the local scale house and get a scale ticket for front and rear axles. That way you will know the trucks actual in the bed payload.
I see more and more 350/3500 srw trucks doing transport work and commercial hauling work running the interstates around here.

Thank you guys for your comments and yes it is a 68RFE I couldn't find one for 2018 which is what I wanted, I can easily transfer all of my stuff over from my 2017 to my new 2018. It only had 19 miles on it so I am happy that I was able to find one, I wanted more payload than my 2017.

Yes after I get it hook up to my fiver I will post up some pics and when I go get it out next week. I will be keeping this truck for a long time, this time, now if I can only convince my wife.


How much did the new sticker cost you?
