Extreme Towing // I Take My RAM 3500 Cummins HO Dually Up & Down a Max 25% Grade with My Fifth Wheel

One of my favorite YouTube channels is ‪@TFLtruck‬, in fact they were the very first channel I ever subscribed to on YouTube way back when Andre only spoke Russian and was measuring brake temperatures :) Anyway, they put out fantastic content so if you aren't subscribed to them you need to be! But, as many of you know ‪@TFLtruck‬ has a longstanding tradition testing trucks up and down the Ike Gauntlet, which is an extreme test at asignificantly high elevation and grade change...almost like a marathon for a runner. I'd say it's probably of the best towing tests out there. Well, in today's video I make my first attempt to document a "mini" towing test of sorts more like a short sprint for a runner, using my 2021 ‪@RamTrucks‬ RAM 3500 Cummins High Output Dually while towing my 2021 Jayco Pinnacle 37MDQS fifthwheel up and down a maximum 25% grade. Stick around till the end of the video as I'll answer some questions that came to mind while I was recording the uphill and downhill runs. Hopefully the video will give you an idea how the RAM/Cummins ‪@cummins‬ platform handles an ultra steep grade while towing heavy. 00:00 Intro 02:10 Truck & Trailer Details 04:38 Uphill Run 08:07 Downhill Run 11:49 Q&A - Max 25%? 16:24 Q&A - Why Brakes? 20:26 Q&A - Why Not 1st Gear? 22:03 Final Thoughts Support the channel by browsing our online store: https://adventure.rocks/store/ #ramtrucks #dually #truck Disclaimer: Whilst every attempt has been made to ensure the accuracy of the information presented in this video, no responsibility is taken for any error, omission, or misstatement.
