2026 Ram 1500 Rebel Owner Refuses to Tow His RV With the 3.0L Hurricane Engine
Original source: Torque News

An Alabama owner of a 2026 Ram 1500 Rebel with the 3.0-liter Hurricane twin-turbo engine said he will not use it to tow his travel trailer, citing concerns about heat soak, soft off-road suspension, and payload limits. He stated he would borrow a better truck for that task. The decision highlights real-world limitations of turbocharged engines in heavy towing, despite official maximum tow ratings.

2025 Toyota Tundra owner reports trailer sway with Grand Design Imagine

A Georgia owner of a 2025 Toyota Tundra reported highway sway while towing a large Grand Design Imagine travel trailer, despite using a mechanical equalizer hitch. He sought advice from the 2023-2027 Toyota Tundra Owners Facebook group about upgrading to the Lippert CURT True Course electronic anti-sway system. The issue stems from the half-ton truck's coil-spring rear suspension lacking lateral stiffness and the passive nature of friction-based hitches, which cannot counteract sudden lateral forces from crosswinds or passing trucks.

What's the difference between a camper and an RV?

The main difference between a camper and an RV is that a camper cannot be driven independently, while an RV has its own motor. According to the RV Industry Association, an RV is a vehicular unit designed for temporary living quarters, either with its own motor or towed by another vehicle. Campers are generally smaller and less expensive than RVs, but may have fewer amenities. RVs come in three classes (A, B, C) based on size and chassis, while campers include fifth-wheel trailers and conventional travel trailers.

Vintage Vogue Motorhome: A Look at the Luxury RV's History

A vintage Vogue motorhome, a luxury Class A RV from the 1980s, was spotted at a used car dealership in Kalispell, Montana, in showroom condition. The Vogue brand was founded in 1974 in Los Angeles by Andy Alburn, a former Winnebago dealer. Production continued until 1998, with models built on Chevrolet, Gillig, John Deere, Crown, and Prevost chassis. The company changed hands in 1990 to Harvey Mitchell and in 1998 to Featherlite, which renamed the line Vantare.

Renting a camper van eased a rugged road trip to Oregon's Leslie Gulch

A journalist from Oregon rented a camper van through Outdoorsy for a trip to Leslie Gulch, known as 'Oregon's Grand Canyon'. The route from Bend took six hours, with 16 miles of gravel and 8 miles of rocky road. The van included a bed, kitchen with induction cooktop and microwave. Slocum Creek Campground has no water or cell service, so a satellite communicator is recommended.
