I broke my damn windshield I'm still haven't come to accept it yet. It feels like I totaled it and it's 100% my fault.
My first pic of the truck with about 3 inch lift and 2ish tire gain. I've got a new off-road bumper, headlights and grill. I kind of like the front bumper now that its higher of the ground
Any front windshield thoughts or experiences you would like to share

Rain X windshield repair kit works well, crack never got any worse. Did it 2 years ago

This one came out of a F350 and I've saved a few others. I saved several BMW rear battery cables for something... 7 series longest
It's probably something in my head and have done zero research on this but it sure seems like the BMW wiring is much nicer in all measurable ways

I’ve saved a lot of stuff in case I needed it over the years.
Now I just have a lot of stuff!

That’s crazy. Assume no towing and mostly hwy driving?

I hear its a very common thing with these trucks. What causes this? I have a hard time believing only Mopar has this secret formula for brake pads.
I'm not sure I've heard of well 100k or even 200k brake pads before but I also didn't data log this kind of info during my career. I don't know the average but Id think 50k to 60k

probably a lot of clear highway miles and probably driving conservatively.
i'm at 54k right now and my pads still have over 80% left and idle hours at 97 hours and total engine hours at 2400 hours (or something like that), and that is including all the hours i idle it to stress test my electrical circuits.

didn't do anything to the truck today but sat in the truck and placed a order for this just so i can get some action shots.

Maybe, some of these drones have a follow me feature; my cheapo drone does and a lot of others do

 

[RAM REAPER MAN]

I got these today and I'm hoping to utilize them or one of them. They fit a ford Eco boost but for $50 I can sell them on eBay without a losing money if I don't
They sell for around $450 new or at least from my quick research of them. Any ideas for the smaller one?

Few weeks back installed a couple of auxiliary reverse lights in the inner rear bumper valances. Had the same problem many have experienced when tying lights into the trailer harness, trailer alert lights on the dash. Decided to build a custom "tap" harness to bridge the taillight connector and route the reverse and ground wires to the auxiliary lights, to avoid modifying the OE wiring harness.

Other than having to fabricate a mounting bracket there would be no issues with running one. You don't need two unless you have a turbo or supercharger

Based on my experience with 2021 Rebel (installed same reverse lights), no. I tapped the trailer harness with no issues.

yes my DJI Mini 4 Pro does that and I plan to use that one for chasing myself if my friends with drone experiences are not around.
it does have a follow me feature as well, but i even when doing chase shots I like to be able to glance at the drone feed to just make sure it's keeping up lol i've "lost" my now-passed-on-to-my-friend Skydio 2 a few times despite it was marketed for robust autonomous features including follow mode. as in, I was going too fast and the drone couldn't keep up, so it stopped tracking and stayed in place until I realized and manually flew it to where I was.

and speaking of... it was delivered to the shop so I brought it home in my truck today

Guess it all depends on what harness you use, or what wires you tap into. No issues on my 2020 using the Vice Design trailer harness adapter.
