    Dodge 2500 towing Momentum moved from solar conversation

    I read about this around Turkey Day last year. I think it was SEMA.

    First thoughts are how they can even remotely feel it's acceptable that a 2500 RAM (maxed out to the gills before the trailer, no less) is towing a 21k triple axle 5th wheel...

    The second is pricing. I've YET to see any real-world pricing. I'm curious to see if the price advantage is there or if this is going to be just for notoriety for a few years.

    I like the concept of electric everything being offered factory direct. But has to be implemented correctly. I'm waiting for details on set up and pricing.

    I didn't know Ram made a 2500 dually. When did they start doing that?

Whether you are in the tow police camp or not, it is not the correct way of promoting/operating a business. But I digress.

    If I read it correctly, the truck package consists of a specialized alternator. Way too many different trucks and configurations out there to be specialized to a Ram 2500. While I agree the coupling of truck and rig to be well, not the best, I am going to focus on the hardware.

    I get your point though. [emoji4]

    Is it a custom conversion? Did the state certify it as a dually and increase CCC?
