    Wiring schematics

    Under warranty and at the dealer now. The warranty does not cover damage from accidents. A wiring schematic would be a great help in finding the lights issue, all else is restored "good as new". Body shop is paying the dealer. I'm sure there is a wiring schematic out there somewhere. I'm...

    Wiring schematics

    Had a mishap where the passenger side of my RAM box was replaced, now have no visor vanity, glove box, rear dome, or RAM box lights (both sides). Cargo light, bed lights and others work. The bed was removed as well as the back seat (to repair a small lower can dent). Fuses all check good.

    NAV versus odometer miles

    Just had me wondering why there were nearly 7,000 miles difference between total trip (since bought) and the odometer. I would hate to think someone put that many miles on the truck (it was "build for" another person) and miles got rolled back to sell as new to me. Just makes me wonder.

    Who's thinking about their next truck?

    The range of EV would keep away since I take two trips of 1750 miles (one way) each year. Even being retired and not really time sensitive, recharge time every 400 miles would make my typical two day trip an extended journey. Looking at replacing my spouses 2012 Suburban (with 40,000 miles) in...

    How are these trucks in heavy snow/blizzards?

    Went through last winter without a hitch with all season tires but will probably get an extra set of rims and snow tires for the future. Lots of snow and cold here,no issues with air suspension and truck is not garaged. Do clear the sensors when clearing snow. Handles great in 4 auto with anti...
