    Adding cargo divider and/or utility rails

    Update.....Thanks to Jako's recommendation to check on the Roll n Lock on Amazon, it looks like the cargo divider will NOT work with the OEM soft trifold cover. My original plan was to get a working set up for a divider, and when I eventually needed a new Tonneau cover, consider the Roll n...

    Adding cargo divider and/or utility rails

    I think what has me confused is I'm having trouble understanding why the set on the right has a set of rails that comes with the divider, but you need to buy another set of rails to make it work? I thought the divider would slide along the rails that comes with the set? I thought the set of...

    Adding cargo divider and/or utility rails

    I tried to get the answer to these questions from another thread on the cargo divider, but I honestly came away more confused, as I couldn't tell the difference between silver and black rails, as the rails come in both colors. I have a 2023 Limited Ram 1500. No MFT and no RamBox. It has the...

    Price negotiated from MSRP

    the dealer I went to was Napleton. The price of the '21 I looked at was fair, but I was turned off by the added fees. It felt like bait and add. I did speak to Orlando Dodge. I didn't discuss used pricing with him, as at that point I had decided to purchase new from MD. I gave him the specs...

    Price negotiated from MSRP

    I just completed my purchase. Back story.... My original plan was to order a 2024 Limited 4x2 with Limited Level 1, Night, patriot blue, with MFT from Mark Dodge. I had planned on Total price of $78.5K, Mark Dodge discount of 12.5%, and a few of other incentives for $67K. I was set to pull...

    Considering a Ram 1500, but concerned about reliability... New to 5GenRam

    funny you should mention this... I ran across a limited with 15K miles that when I ran the car fax had 3 different owners.... Hard pass. I wonder if Mopar keeps a computer log of the services that are done and what the resolution of those problems done. I'm sure they have it in the Service...

    the things you got fixed out of pocket, was it because you were past the warranty period or because you got denied the claim. I'm considering getting the Zeigler extended warranty.

    with the exhaust manifold repair (I assume its a leak or warp), is this a problem that occurs at a typical mileage? in other words should this push me to buy new vs used?

    I've been to a couple dealerships to test drive and see their offers.... I know they are doing their best to hire staff, but the sales people, in general, have horrible grammar, seem to struggle with simple math ( " A new one is like $80K, a used one is like $60k.... that's like half the price")...

    So you took a video of the problem, but they can't reproduce or fix it?

    Considering a Ram 1500, but concerned about reliability... New to 5GenRam

    I've been lurking for a while... I've owned a 2006 Tundra for the past 18 yrs and it's got 255K miles. Other than replacing the injectors, changing the oil and brakes as well as changing the driveshaft bearing and U joints, I haven't had a single problem with it. It's time for a new truck and...
