    Any back windows that DON'T leak?

    Early 2018 build that never leaked, but between that concern and the Uconnect 4 being the redhead stepchild, I grew concerned and decided it was the right time to sell. Overall nothing failed, ever, unless you count the multiple times I inspected everything assuming failure was around the...

    YouTuber Charged With 18 Criminal Counts After Infamous Ram TRX Jump Video

    Sounds like no “I’ll intent”, but also claimed ignorance which isn’t a defense. Sorry dumbass, claiming to care, but ignorance isn’t a good defense. For those of us that responsibly off road, crap like this ruins it for us.

    Why I am Purchasing New

    Sold mine back to the dealer yesterday for more than I paid. I bought it used Jan 2020.

    What did you do to your Ram today???

    Had my daughter drive the Ram again, this time on the interstate. My wife has been all about delicate side streets in the Subaru. Screw that, I made her deal with major construction zones in the Ram. She did just fine. My kids have more hours driving the Ram than my wife does. I let my 12 yr...

    TRX Jump that makes you cringe!

    I watch a fair amount of different YouTube channels but this one was hard to watch. I cringe when I see old Jaguars, Land Rovers, and even classic trucks destroyed in a movie or tv show. More power to this guy, and I wish I had the smarts to generate the revenue he gains, but I would never...

    Tailgate Cables

    I was at the dealership yesterday and a brand new Ram on the showroom floor has a slack cable on the left side. Pathetic quality control on FCA’s part.

    brand new 2021 rebel stalls after 1100km

    Sounds identical to a fuel pump failure I had that would come back to life after sitting for a while. That was a Range Rover, but the vehicle manufacturer doesn’t matter, faulty parts happen.

    Auto high beams are useless

    I suspect us older generation don’t need it, and the younger generation like it. I still remember a sticky floor switch that I used back in the day. Plus those old high beams sucked compared to today’s lights.

    Does anyone actually pay for UConnect?

    I didn’t have a choice when my Ram was in Hawaii, no satellite coverage. Having been a Sirius/XM fan for decades I was fine with out it. Now I simply stream SiriusXM from my phone via Bluetooth. But nothing in the guardian package justifies the cost, period. Side note; why do people pay for...

    Dead battery

    Mine was dead this morning. About 2 years old and 26K miles. I’m charging it at the moment.

    Rearview Camera/Mirror

    Easy enough, don’t buy it if you don’t see the value. Somehow we survived for decades without technology holding our hand. I don’t have it as mine is a 2019, but my experience with it in a Land Rover Defender was pretty nice. Like a VMS, I wish there was a sort of industry standard to add a...

    A/T tires

    Cooper Zeon LTZ is all I will use on my Land Rover. They perform well in dry, wet, snow, and off road. Think I’m averaging about 50K out of them, and this is my second set. Even near the end they perform well, even in our occasional blizzard.
