So I am wending my way through ordering a 2018 SRW Ram Chassis Cab in a regular cab configuration. The multitude of choices is a mixed blessing!
As of now: 6.4 Hemi (standard) with upgraded Aisin tranny, 4.44 rear end and dashboard shift-on-the-fly transfer case. Plus all sorts of creature comforts (heated seats, etc.) in the cab for the better half.
My question: The standard alternator is 180 amp. But there is a 220 Amp (195.00) option. Or dual 380 amp alternators can be optioned too. (395.00) So what to do? (I'm trying to "do this right" so money is not a huge issue.)
My current 2500 Ram has the 220 amp alternator and it seems to be OK recharging the dual FWC batteries. Would there be any reason for the dual alternators? We do frequently change camp every day so maybe give faster charging? We will have the standard FWC 160 watt roof top solar panel system too. (I've confessed on here before I am an electrical dummy.)
I throw myself on your combined Sunday morning counsel!
