Default Look at what followed me home from the Dodge dealer the other night...

2016 3500 4x4, Crew cab, Laramie, dually, long bed, fully loaded, (except for sunroof, and the Dodge Factory 5th wheel prep), but got the auto level rear suspension. So far, I really like it , and there are some killer deals out there on 2016s, local dodge dealer knocked $17,000 off the $ before my trade. I had my 2006 Ford F-350 SRW since new, truck only had 49,400 miles on it, and it was pretty good truck, except for the dang brakes.... I wanted to also get back to a dually, thinking about doing a slide-in camper in a few years, and of course a BIGGER boat in the future....

Very sharp truck. I would love to have the mega cab dually but cant really justify getting a dually. I dont tow that much. Enjoy the new ride.

Thanks guys, I really like the rear air ride suspension, and the engine brake really works....

The engine brake is such a great option, I don`t tow without it.

Yeah this is the first pick-up I've had with an engine brake, can't wait to tow with it.... Hopefully this weekend, if I don't have to work! Going to tow the Spectre back to storage....

I love my dually. I don't think I will ever tow again without a set of training wheels on it. Sits nice and flat in the corners, a very stable on the highway. And the exhaust brake is on point for the nation. Its not actually an engine brake like the big rigs have, its an exhaust brake that uses the turbo to slow you down. And it gets ever more potent if you drop the emissions as well. My old Nordic had surge brakes on the trailer, and the EB was perfect with that setup, it was just enough slowing of the truck to engage the brakes and slow the whole rig down without using the trucks brakes. With the EOH brakes, you will still have to apply the brakes and the EB will assist.

Anyhow, beautiful truck and congrats!
