Hello. I’m new here. I am the original owner of a 2014 ED Laramie. 3yrs away from retiring from the Navy, almost done paying off my truck and ready to buy a TT.

I’ve read a lot of negative comments about the ED and was seriously considering trading her in for a used 2500 until I came across a few posts by VernDiesel and his success with towing using his ED. So, thanks Vern! I‘VW decided to stick it out, start with a mild non-delete tune and see what happens.

My ED has a little over 93k on it, got all the recalls done, so she runs like crap compared to before. Had about $7k worth of warranty word done last year to deal with DEF causing check engine light. I think they even replaced the DEF tank. Other than that, I love my RAM. She’s the first vehicle I bought brand new and I’d like to keep her around.

Thank you for your service! Regarding the tune, definitely will help, I went with a stage 1 from SFT, shuts the EGR down & allows the use of distilled water in the DEF tank, I still run some DEF with the water, all in all I'm very satisfied with the tune, if you happen to go with SFT, get the rally trans tune & exhaust brake, if you tow in the mountains you'll love those 2 features. Welcome to the site.

Hello,I have a 2016 Bighorn w/air suspension. SFT stg1 tooned. 39k miles. 392 gears. Load range E tires. WD hitch w/friction control bar. Tows my 6000lb TT like a dream. Might go 8000lb with next TT and still feel comfortable towing but anything heavier would consider 3/4 ton rig for safety reasons. Thank you for your service
