    I'm Missing my Gen 3 Ecodiesel:

    I LOVED my ecodiesel. It was in a Jeep Grand Cherokee, but man that thing towed nice. I really waffled between the EcoD and the Hemi when i got my current Ram. There are certainly days/times when I miss the diesel for it's easy nature and gobs of torque. I had the CP3 grenade on me (gen 2...

    New to me 2020 Sport wont start

    Its your starter. I had the EXACT same problems. Did the old hammer tap and sure enough, started right up, which in my old-school brain is the 100% guarantee that the starter is bad. Replaced, no problems since.

    Unstable cold start

    Checked your air filter? I'm just grasping, but the throttle body is where I'd start too. You say no codes/errors "displayed". Does that mean no Dash warning lights? Or did you actually plug in a scanner to check for codes? I'd be fairly surprised if there aren't codes stored.

    Oddly optioned trucks

    At the time (Jan/Feb 2021) I was looking for a used 2019 or 2020 Laramie with Advance Safety Group, because I had been previously spoiled with Adaptive Cruise, which I'd come to really love during my regular highway driving. At that time any trim level with ASG was pretty hard to find, except...

    Tempting fate, but I just can’t help myself.

    Yeah, for sure that diesel makes the towing so much more relaxed and comfortable, at least in my opinion. My wife and I keep going back-and-forth between getting back into a camper and honestly one of the reasons I don’t want to is because I want to keep this truck! I am closely watching the...

    Same! My goal is 300,000 miles, but I will happily go longer if I can.

    Tempting fate, but I just can’t help myself.

    Got a 2019 Laramie crew cab with the hemi. Over 175,000 miles on it and just running like a champ. How do you not love these numbers? And this remains the most comfortable and luxurious highway hauler. Am I tempting fate? Probably. Let’s hope not.

    Vented seats not turning on

    did ya check the fuse? You say you searched but don't mention anything you've tried or checked. Are you saying they worked before but are no longer working?

    U1267 code

    Sounds like a starter. Pretends to be a weak battery IE: clicking but no start, starts normally sometimes, cranks slowly sometimes. If your battery tests good then I'll bet starter. Happened to me.

    Unintended Steering Behavior at Moderate Speed

    The system is trying to protect you from...you. It assumes you are drifting lanes unintentionally and is trying to "lane keep". As baltorex said, once you turn on your turn signal the system then decides the lane change is intentional and no longer engages.

    Another initiate

    Those powersteps...for your wife...they will become one of your favorite things about the truck. I'd bet $2.50 on it. Enjoy the truck, sounds like a nice one, but pictures are always welcome.

    *INCREASED REBATES* on '26 Orders w/ MARK DODGE

    When I go to "Build & Price" on Ram's website it doesnt offer the option to build a 2026. Am I missing something?

    Changing Transmission fluid

    Trust me, it's not now or never. On my last ZF 8spd I never changed the trans fluid til I was past 160K miles. Had the fluid analyzed by Blackstone. The analysis showed relatively little breakdown and moderate debris. On this one I changed at 120K with zero issues since, and I'm at 167K now...

    88 Octane

    I I am now at 162,000 miles on my hemi. And I’ve never put a drop of anything but 87 octane in it. Runs like a champ. I pay close attention, particularly in the summertime listening for pinging, but I’ve never heard any. But this makes me really curious about 88 octane so I will be watching...
