Service Department games for sure. So I’m posting to vent. We have a 2012 Chevy Equinox that was my MILs until she passed. It has 48k miles on it and we are going to sell it but it needed a couple recalls done to make sure it was clean. So the dealer gets it and I get a list of 7 items they say...

I have yet to notice a lag on the throttle. Have towed anything yet (only had it a month an 1000 miles). But getting on the interstate going from an on ramp at 50 to 75 mph is great. Of course anything beats the 4 cyl I drove for the last three years. It’s also better than the 4.7L V8 in my...

Really hope Ram covers the cost. Frankly I would think the paint option would be cheaper than the mechanical one. Been raining the last two days so I was able to go real under my truck today. Happy to say it looks like it’s supposed to underneath.

Didn’t get the OEM rubber mats in the truck, just the standard ones with the carpet “insert”. Got the WeatherTech HP and it has the sill cover front and back. Also come up behind both the pedals so the colorado slush when you get in after skiing or mud after hiking doesn’t fall off the boots and...

Let us know the outcome for sure. I really hope they do you right and you can tell a good story about a service department from a dealership! I’ve been making fun of a buddy with a 2018 F150 Platinum that has spent the about 6 of the last 10 weeks with out his truck because as soon as the...

Great idea on the cover! I’ll treat them like we do our 80 lbs Lab after she goes to the lake with us. She has a cover for the back seat just for her. Although wet dog and a little mud is way easier to clean than oil from a diesel. Used to have a diesel in high school and college and changed my...

So at 900+ miles now and I'm averaging 26.7mpg with about 50% highway, 25% city and 25% "suburban" driving. Oh, wait. EcoDiesel and loving it. I DID buy it for the mileage. Only reason I filled the 33 gal tank twice was when the pipeline got hacked in case fuel got limited in our area. I...

All these stories about the crappy oil change techs scares the crap out of me. For years I always did my own but the battle with the "engineering" of today's vehicles was a constant battle. My 2002 Dakota with the skid plates? Yeah. That was a treat also and usually ended up with oil dry on...

An update for those tracking the trends on vehicle timelines. My original order (in signature) from 3/10 hit Build Sheet on 5/03, Sticker on 5/13, and today RamChat says ETA to dealer in Colorado on 5/20-6/3 (if its 6/3 that is 12 weeks exactly). Likely won't know when it actually arrives here...

So you’re a cyber security expert? Convince me I’m wrong.

Yeah, who knows why. Agree on the things to like. Love the ride, the mileage on the EcoDiesel, the look of the truck. Hoping I don’t have any of the weird issues that some folks have had but statistically speaking it shouldn’t happen. Of course now I’m the announcer during the game that says...

I have the 360 Surround and have the dashed line in the backup camera. I attached a couple of pictures. Note the “selected camera view” changes if you have the dashed line. Also note the tight fit in the garage door!

I’ve got the air suspension and the active air dam on my 2021 Ltd.

My truck is quieter than my wife's Honda Pilot at 80 mph. Haven't driven into a 30 mph headwind yet but thus far am VERY happy with out quiet it is. Eventually will put AT tires on and that will change it some but the All Seasons are nice. I won't go "Off Road" except the occasional forest...

I've been checking on the original build that I had ordered just to provide updates to this group. Ordered on 3/10, VIN 3/12. D1 4/19 (Same day I picked up my truck from the lot that had what I wanted), Buildsheet 5/3 and today RAM Chat says it is complete and ready "for the road" so I assume...
