Sorry guys I can’t imagine how much you miss your dad. My dad had a big heart attack when I was only 17 he was 42, he pulled thru and he’s 73 now but it’s been a rough road , I’m so lucky to have him and mom still.

Ur pops makes me laugh.. lol.. "do u want me to accelerate? Oh u dont want me to show" lol i love it.. ur pops is a G

The Onstar feature when you are doing cross country trips with the satellite phone and nav is a great security feature. When things go bad it starts off with a dead phone or no reception!

More tape measures! Stanley should be a advertisement!😂

Damb i gotta wait lol 🤣🤣good one👍👍

Again it’s what you like thanks for the video

Drove excellent your right all the H.D. trucks will pull all day long.not a GM guy but your pops truck did well.

To measure for a weight distributing hitch you have to get the squat over all four wheels of the truck the same. The trailer should be level and that is a function of moving the ball up or down. The bars on the hitch do not have to be straight. If you need to transfer more weight the bars may be curved to provide the proper amount of transfer from the rear to the front.

Can't wait for the ram towing vid with pops!

Hey Eddie, I’d love to get your opinion on what used truck to buy. Im wanting to spend about $30-$40k and I have found some decent deals out there in this crazy marked. My question being would you recommend getting a 3rd or 4th gen Cummins or a lmm duramax? I’m looking at getting a toy hauler in the near future. Thank you!

Haha Pops is getting comfy with the KZread. Talking some smack!! 🤣🤣 Love it.

Pops pulled one one you, Eddie. Lol. That was a slick move he pulled. Do over. Or, set your tune to tow mode and tell him its stock. Lol. Great vids as always man. Great job!

Love these vids eddy! Can i make a request? To eliminate human input ( since the viewers can't feel the gas pedal and its position) can you run a test like this with the cruise set at different speeds or at least the speed limit, That way the truck is putting in the input? Then time your run and see what truck gets it done quicker?

What make and model trailer did you do this test with?

Those trans temps are impressive

You guys there were your at have long not to steep hills, here in Kansas we have short but steep hills, that's the best kind of testing to do for towing.

I own a Denali but they're both nice trucks

Looks like Pops ran his truck in 7th (1:1) gear max, locking out 8,9,10. That’s why it said L7 on the display. Do over. Tell pops to leave the shifter alone this time. Just put it in drive with Tow/Haul. It’d be like Eddie running his Ram in 4th gear max (1:1).

Since they can't even measure the hitch bar correctly (5/8 is NOT 3/4), why would you expect them to operate the transmission correctly?! Since you're in Cali, maybe a test at legal speeds for towing would be useful. Towing at 70 is how those KZread "dramatic trailer crash" videos are made.

What made you make the switch to ram?

Just wanted to let you know that with pops havin the truck in L gear not D, he had control over what gear he was in. It never would have down shifted. Also when using the D selection with the shifter, with every touch of the brake it will down shift to next gear as long as there is gear left to down shift in with out maxing rpm range out. It’s how even my Colorado works with the 2.8.

The reason for your gear not shifting from the 7th gear because you are driving in “L” Manual drive and all the shifting must be made by the driver; so you have to redo the test and this time drive in “D” drive !!!

You could have taken the the Duramax out of tow haul mode and let it shift up. It could have done that pull in a much higher gear.

Just measure the wheel well it dosnt matter were you measure just need to measure at the same location.

I'd go Duramax, but I'd go Cummins if they hadn't redone the Duramax. The pros the new Duramax has over Cummins and Powerstroke are, larger wheel base, larger radiator, larger oil coolers, larger fan diameter, aluminum fan not plastic, turbo timer, ram air and fuel coolers. All are industry leading so in a bit shell cooler means hp/ and torque are not lost in summer towing and longevity of hp/torque because heat kills diesels and turbos. All that has been added under those massive front ends, function over form.

Duramax baby
