    Suspension fixed!

    Got any pics? ON their site, I don’t see shocks, only air bags. Very curious.

    Is the term "grocery getter" offensive to you

    I’m offended by grocery getter. I prefer Cowboy Cadillac… LOL. I have a Jeep Wrangler which I bought for two reasons. 1. Top off/doors off in the summer for fun. 2. It’s a 2013 with 160K miles. When it snows…it’s great in 4x4 and I don’t have to worry about somebody plowing into my Cowboy...

    MaxCare - Zeigler is cheaper than Granger?

    Why not just hit up each of them via PM to get their best offer, then choose. They’re less than two tankfuls of gas in price on a new truck north of 80K sticker… let them sell you and go from there.

    Do not update

    Guys, I’m telling you.. I get in the car, start it… and within 10 to 15 seconds it’s connected and streaming. 2023 Limited. iPhone 16 pro, updated to latest IOS 18.5. Out of the last 10 to 15 times I got in/out of my truck, one time… I had to manually go into the profiles and tell it to connect...

    WTF? Anyone else with a Limited or Tungsten have severe chipping on your wheel well trim?

    Some on my rear wheels… but at some point, you’re chasing perfection. PPF the whole truck if that’s a concern. I did PPF on the whole front of my truck as a concern for rock chips, and it’s already paid for itself in that regard.

    Tungsten Owners who hate that the truck was made without the paddle shifters

    In my limited, I could care less about paddle shifters. They’re on my wife’s GC and I’ve hit them by accident several times, don’t care for them at all. If I had an RHO or TRX, I may feel differently. But a Limited? Don’t care. I’ve used the -/+ a few times when driving in very hilly...

    Do not update

    Mine updated yesterday… while I was driving it finished up. Screen was wonky for a couple minutes, as it was last time. Stopped to fill up, got back in, started it up.. back to normal. I noticed when I started it up after filling up CarPlay connected quicker than normal… we’ll see if that holds...

    Ram box gap to tail gate

    I have a 23 limited with ram boxes and MFT. I used the ESI kit. Casual rain… it’ll stay mostly dry. Power wash… torrential downpour, still gonna get wet back there. The ESI kit instructions aren’t the best..it gets to a point where you pretty much say.. ok, tape here, cut to length, done. I’ve...

    Do not update

    I got that same message in mine yesterday AM. It’s kinda weird, they just did an OTA not that long ago, I want to say in the past 30 to 45 days. Wonder what was broke that they felt the need to send another update so soon.

    2025 RAM Lane Centering

    Vincent nailed it. It’s called Lane Keep Assist. My wife’s GC has the ability to keep you centered in a lane, but you still must have a hand on the wheel (or as I’ve found out, at least 2-3 fingers pressure). You’re asking it to do what it’s not designed to.. it’s assist. You’ll note if you...

    Ram limited seats slippery?

    Neither my 15 nor my 23 Limited have “slippery” seats. I use a cleaner/conditioner. For a quick easy clean/maintain, I use Chemical guys leather wipes. Once a year I’ll get the Leather Better out, wipe them down, let it set then buff it off. I think, the key is natural ingredients like beeswax...

    Oil change monitor

    Talk about crap shoot… Sorry, too soon?

    Oil change monitor

    All good points boys. I know you covered manufacturer’s desire to sell cars. Let’s not forget oil company’s desire to sell you magical oil… and if they extend the life, they’ll charge you more…since you’ll be buying it less frequently. Yep, I get it costs more to manufacture… but not at the...

    Oil change monitor

    My take.. Everyone is an expert, and everyone has an opinion. Ask someone the best oil, you’ll get just as many answers. Ask someone how often to change.. you’ll get nearly as many. My 2008 had lifetime powertrain. My 2015 had Max Care unlimited (Original owner only, me) My 2023 has 8yr, 125K...

    Oil change monitor

    I wish I would’ve known that when I traded in my 2015 with over 140K on it, zero motor issues, and the whole time I only changed it with 10% or less oil life…with…gasp…conventional oil.
