I like what ford did with their ev truck... I don't really care what they do with the front end, but I hope manufacturers leave the bed alone. LOVE the addition of the onboard ICE generator... I've got nothing against electric, just can't tow long distance with it. I've got 2 young boys and...

I had a 2006 Pontiac I traded in some years ago and a few weeks later found it parked in the garage at work... a security guard had bought it. One of those double-take moments when I walked by it.

ok, having put some more miles on the 2500, something that I cant help to compare against the 1500 is ride. The 2500 is definitely not as smooth as the 1500, and I ran on LT tires at 65psi on the 1/2 ton with a level. The ride on the 2500 is very very good for an hd truck, but its not as close...

Just upgraded to a 2500 diesel this morning; traded in the 1500. I LOVED my 1500 so much... spent so much time ($$$$) tweaking and modding the thing; it really was the perfect truck so far as I'm concerned. BUT the payload was only 1250lbs and that just wasn't cutting it. I've been spoiled by...

I’ve read good reviews too and so I may have a bad unit, but I ran into trouble with map apps like waze, which wouldn’t track my location reliably at all. I’d be going along and the my marker would be a quarter mile behind me or not moving at all. Audio quality was poor as well.

i pulled my pedal commander out after installing the mopar cai kit. giving the engine more air got rid of the delay and it feels so much more natural than the PC did.

lol just posted on a similar thread about the ram boxes… which I can live without, but I do have some major MFT envy. I’d get it, if I was buying again. that said, I’m a huge fan of my topper/cap, which would work well with the MFT, but there’s some issues with tonneau cover fitment due to the...

It’s like this… if you value bed space, don’t get them. If you think you might get a cap, don’t get them. If you’re looking to stow a bunch of smaller items on the regular, get them. I don’t have them, but have wished I did at times and it’s hard to find a comparable after market solution. On...

On the topic of long beds on crew cabs.… I’ve got one and love it. Carry’s more by volume, tows better in theory, and looks awesome. I grew up in a time and place where 8’ beds were the norm… a 5’ bed just looks stumpy to me. It definitely hangs a foot or so out of most parking spots, but...

Agree with Malodave. Get yourself a Comma and be one of the few of us with self-driving 1500’s!

I’d go with the coils in this case. HD would be best, but at least you can upgrade the steel suspension to better handle the load, if you decide to go half ton. To my knowledge there aren’t any aftermarket upgrades available for the air suspension.

Wanted to update the thread now that it’s installed and working. This is a long one. <tldr> For short daily driving, not worth the money right now. If you’re doing long freeway miles, this thing is pretty much “set and forget it”. it’s a level 2 system, so you can’t really forget it, but you...

Installed a Comma 3 self driving unit. Great hardware and awesome community of guys working on compatibility with the 1500. I’ve been super impressed with how well it works on the couple of short drives I’ve been able to shoehorn into the day. It’s like a Cyber Truck, but good looking!

Look, i love my limited, sure, but there’s a lot to like here too. That looks like real wood to me, I like the physical climate control buttons and the general layout. The pictured truck looks like it’s got lockers front and rear, a rear entertainment center, and super-cruise, which is awesome…...
