    Retractable bed cover that does not leak....

    I have the RetraxProMX retractable cover and even when I pressure wash the truck the bed stays 100% dry on the inside (tailgate area included). Granted it does have drain tubes that funnel any water that gets in the tracks out of the truck. You do lose about 6" or so of bed depth but you still...

    Ford F-250 Totaled after rear-ending my Rebel

    Doesn’t surprise me at all, my initial estimate was just over $8k and by the time it was all said and done they were in it for over $12k plus another $2400 in rental car charges. You’ll need to wait a minimum of 4-6 weeks to re-ceramic it, give the paint time to cure but I’m sure you could get...

    Ford F-250 Totaled after rear-ending my Rebel

    Not sure if you ever got your truck back but you can be reimbursed for your Ceramic Coating. I unfortunately had a kamikaze driver take out the front end of my truck back in March just over $12k in damage (thankfully nothing structural or mechanical other than headlights/grille shutters) but...

    Biggest tire on stock 20s Laramie with Off-road no Air

    That's correct 1" higher than factory ride height with the ORP, with the air ride you'd be able to easily clear 34's and probably 35's. A lot of guys run bigger tires on the air ride equipped trucks because you can adjust it to where it doesn't rub unlike the non air trucks like mine, but i've...

    Finally bit the bullet on bigger tires Cooper Discoverer AT3 XLT (275/65R20)

    Thanks! The Ridge Grapplers were on my short list too until a buddy of mine who is a master tech for a local Ford dealer around here steered me away from them. He told me he gets a lot of trucks in that have the Ridge Grapplers and he's had a lot wear out prematurely and the tread get "choppy"...

    Finally bit the bullet on bigger tires Cooper Discoverer AT3 XLT (275/65R20)

    After a ton of back and forth between buying new wheels & tires vs just buying bigger tires i finally settled on keeping the factory 20's and put on a set of Cooper Discoverer AT3 XLT's in a 275/65R20 (34.1" x 10.8"). Absolutely zero rubbing at all with plenty of room to spare and i'm still on...

    Biggest tire on stock 20s Laramie with Off-road no Air

    Well i don't know about the BIGGEST but i can tell you i just put new Cooper Discoverer AT3 XLT's on mine today in a 275/65R20 (34.1x10.8) and i have absolutely ZERO rubbing or issues, rides flawless. I do NOT have any level or lift on my truck just the factory off road package.

    Moisture in headlight housings?

    I would've thought FCA would have gotten a hold of this headlight issue by now, my 16 RAM Laramie had both headlights replaced due to excessive moisture and now my 19 is going on it's 3rd passenger headlight (LED). First one was so bad it distorted the light pattern at night and then the light...

    Anyone running bigger AT's on the factory Bighorn 18's?

    When you were running 295's you have any rubbing issues? Assuming you already had it leveled at that point?

    Anyone running bigger AT's on the factory Bighorn 18's?

    My problem is i like a taller tire/less rim but there's been so many people on here having clearance issues with aftermarket 18's that i figured I'd just use the ones i have, plus i like the "simplicity" of the factory 18" 5 spoke wheels a lot easier to clean and maintain. I wasn't sure how it'd...

    Anyone running bigger AT's on the factory Bighorn 18's?

    I actually saw your truck but didn't even realize those were the 18's, they looked just like the 20" factory black wheels, looks good!

    Anyone running bigger AT's on the factory Bighorn 18's?

    I see a ton of people running bigger tires on the factory 20's/22's and Rebel wheels but anyone running larger AT's on the factory 18" Bighorn wheels? I like the simplicity of these wheels but wonder how they would look with a larger AT tire on them. I'm running the upgraded 20's on it now but...

    uConnect 12.1" & 8.4" - Intermittent Pauses in Audio for All Sources

    Sorry for the absence, my wife went into labor 2 weeks early so everything was pushed onto the back burner. The dealer did get the new radio in a week or so ago, I just have to find a day to drop it off to them. Once they replace it I'll update you guys with the part numbers/software information...
