What did you do to your Ram today???

I installed a Diamondback SE tonneau cover yesterday. It’s a pricey cover, but the build is excellent. It was surprisingly easy to do the install just by myself.

That's a very nice cover. Thankfully I don't keep/haul expensive stuff in my truck. While I want a hard tonneau... not 2k hard! lol. :) Nice investment if you're keeping tools and such in the back though. :)

I considered other ones that were less expensive, but ultimately none met exactly what I was looking for, especially longevity. I figured better to spend $2,000 now for something that should last 10 years or more vs. spending $1,200 every 3 - 5 years for something else. But yes, it is investment as are these trucks. It’s crazy how expensive they are now.

I have a soft roll-up that I cost me $220. 4.5yrs and still going strong.

But I dont store stuff in the bed for any extended period of time. Strictly transport.

I'm at almost 5.5 years on my Gator EFX soft roll up. Still works as good as the day I installed it.
 
Christmas gift - RC bed mat. I just unrolled it this Weekend, still needs some sun and weight to completely be flat.
Heavy and good quality. I don't put a lot of stuff if any on my bed since I have an offroad rack for my traction boards, etc and other equipment is just in the back seats.
But it is still pretty good to have.

Ive had mine on since last August, never got the top part to unroll.. good luck!
 
Factory battery died (mfg. 03/2022), so I purchased and installed an EverStart Platinum H8 AGM. Topping off the charge this evening and will connect cables tonight. Hopefully I won’t experience the software and electrical nightmares others have experienced when swapping batteries. Fingers crossed!

Well, crap. Now the check engine light is on and my power steps will not stay stored even though I have “store” selected in the settings. Urrrggg! I’ll give it a few days to see if the issues correct themselves. Unfortunately, I don’t have code reader that works with this truck, so I have no clue what the code is.

Let us know if you had any difficulty mounting the battery (or turning on the truck).
On my previous Ram (my22), the H8 didn't have enough space...

probably just going through the learning process and bringing everything back online. should go away the next day.

interesting enough I didn't have any of those issues when I swapped battery...

No issues with the install. As HSKR mentioned, just removing the block/wedge allowed the H8 to fit.

Has anyone experienced this? Any quick fixes?

No quick fix. Either buy a new seat cover or you can try a repair place. I'm getting mine repaired again after the first one came off. Company called Fibernew. I have a warranty on my seats from a protection package I had done when I first got it.
