2015
Year Model,
LARAMIE
Package
RAM
H/Duty trucks, 2500 Series and 3500 Series:
(Remember,
to tell the actual Year Model of the Ram you are considering to purchase, check the tenth digit of the vehicle’s
17 digit VIN [Vehicle Identification Number]. 2015 Year Models will be an ‘F’. If it is a ‘E’, it is a 2014 Year
Model, a ‘D’ means a 2013 Year Model. An example of a typical 2015 Year Model Ram’s VIN
is:
3C6UR1FL2FG123456. You see, the 10th (tenth) digit along that VIN
number is an ‘F’, designating it as a genuine 2015 Year Model)

- either the Crewcab or
Megacab cab’s (Regular cab not available with the Laramie Package, is only available with the SLT or

the dashboard to the right of the steering wheel. The included control lever can activate the trailer
brakes independent of the truck’s brakes. Stopping power is upped further by a wide brake pad surface area,
and large brake pistons and calipers. Bigger brakes also mean longer intervals between brake jobs and less
time and money spent in the shop. Additionally, a standard integrated diesel exhaust brake reduces brake
fade and prolongs brake life. This panel-mounted display gives you greater control and towing confidence.
Customize it to increase or decrease the trailer brake pressure, depending on your load weight through the
drivers Electronic Vehicle Information Centre (EVIC)
