    2025's question

    Yeah I'm p1ssed about that.........I bought a 24 cos I wanted another Hemi (even though I was forced to get etorque), but they cheaped out by removing the flares on 23's and 24's only to bring them back on 25's............ just can't win.............although I'm glad I got the 24 as I really...

    Windshield wiper fluid not coming out

    Oh by the way, if you intend fixing it yourself (it's easy) you will need to source the hood liner clips, as I believe they are a one time use. I never managed to get many out without damaging them. You can find them on Amazon...

    Windshield wiper fluid not coming out

    Shouldn't need to prime, but the fittings under the hood lining have a habit of coming apart, spraying the fluid into the hood liner. Had this happen twice on my 2019, so the last time I used zip ties to stop them coming apart

    Just curious

    I traded my 2019 last year for this current 2024. It had apx 37000 miles, and the only issues were the squealing brakes when reversing, and I replaced the battery just last year. One thing I did notice tho, was that the paint was starting to yellow on the fairing above the bumper, and on the...

    K thanks again, checked there, but still no Delmonico Red. Guess I need to buy the unfinished ones, and have them painted.

    Picked Up The 24 Today. Few Questions

    Ok thanks for the tip, they look good. Who did you buy them from, as the only vendor I can find, only carries them in ivory pearl tricoat.

    Having owned Dodge/Ram trucks since 2000, after an awful experience with a Silverado (that I traded after 15 months due to it's incessant issues) I can say I have had very little go wrong. (now I've jinxed it !) Have had a 2001,(2500), 2003, (2500), 2007 (2500) 2009 (1500) 2013 (1500) 2019...

    Picked Up The 24 Today. Few Questions

    To me the biggest item, between my last truck and this one (similarly equipped) is the lack of fender flares. I've had the truck since late Sept, and I still miss them every time I look at it.......... anyone got a good recommendation for aftermarket painted flares..................:)

    Rear window surround crack.

    Just got two letters in the mail today (unfortunately for my 2019 Ram, which I don't have anymore) from FCA extending the warranty on the 3rd brake light to 10 yrs 150000 miles, and the rear window to 8 yrs 150000 miles, so it appears they are trying to do the right thing .

    Speaking of Nannies......in this new 24, I keep getting a message in the display " check back seat"....and I'm thinking , what on earth could be wrong with the back seat ? Then it dawned on me....they put this message, up because apparently some people are so distracted, that they have left...

    Failed 8.4nav to 12.1 screen swap

    Yeah, it's a pricy swap (4k if you go the infotainment route) so I just made do with the 8.4, until I traded it last week for a 24 with the 12.1. .................

    Failed 8.4nav to 12.1 screen swap

    I also seem to remember that the radio module was different between the 8.4 and the 12" screens when i was looking at swapping out the one in my 2019. Could be wrong, as that was about 4 years ago.............
