First does anybody know if they came out with a factory trailer hitch for the truck and if so wheres it go and do you have pictures???

Also how is this truck in the snow? Its gotta just sit still and spin the tires with all the power no ??

Please reply ASAP as these are considerations before my purchase thanks.

I live in Wy and can say first hand that it gets around very well in the snow and ice. Between the all wheel drive and the competer contoling it. I believe the limiting factor is clearance of the front bumper. Better snow tires than the all seasons I am very sure would make it unstopable.

hummah - do a search on this site and the "blue" site for a hitch. There are several variations out there with pictures, but nothing from Mopar.

And Ronald, I'm gonna have to get me one of those competers! Do they really make a big difference? :)

LOL...

There is a short video that someone posted on here a while back showing them driving in the snow. You may do a search.

Wasn't that video from How's 2nd?

I went ahead and found it far you. Here you go.
Here are some suck-ass videos of mine in the snow. Next time I'll get some of me playing a little. FYI, mine did just fine in deep snom. I also had no problems driving on packed down snow at speeds of 45-65 mph. Hope this helps.

I remember those vids, honestly that's not too shabby at all with the stock wheels/rubber (assuming those were the runflats).

Locally, the stock setup would get me by just fine. Only reason to switch out the wheels would be to avoid screwing up the oem wheels.

I live in Salt Lake City where the snow gets deep too. Does anyone recommend a great snow tire for the stock 20's?

That is like watching a horror movie.:eek:

...but then again, I live in (the Valley of the Sun) AZ.:D

id be interested to see some videos of an srt8 on stock rubber going up hills in the snow
