    Southwest Edition

    Can you really only order a Southwest Edition in the 6 states outlined on the builder website? I like the features, painted bumpers and I'm allowed to keep the 6 passenger seating. I'm in Iowa. Laramie doesnt allow colored bumpers like on the LongHorn and the only way to get it is sport or...

    Air Suspension in colder climates

    With this recent cold shock I've seen a Ram and a jeep driving around town with zero, and I mean zero air in the bags. Granted i think both were previous generations and not the current ones. We're at below zero for 4 straight days. -20 for 48 hours.. not counting wind chills. Single digit highs...

    REV vs Ramcharger - who would buy a REV?

    Who the hell keeps a daily driver 20 years!? I cant think of a single person i know that has ever kept a vehicle for 20 years that was a daily driver. Usually, they retire it at 15 years to a secondary vehicle, or a "nostalgia" vehicle to keep around for their kids or grandkids or they...

    Sled Decks on 19-23 Ram 1500 Limited

    You're likely going to be over payload. 500lb sled wet x 2 + sled deck + gear. You'd def need stiffer springs+ air bags + LT tires to even be safe, yet still illegal. Sled decks belong on 3/4 tons minimum.

    Exhaust Manifold Options

    You have to get aftermarket headers for it to go away completely. Had mine go at 60K. dealer did them under warranty. now at 100k - still no issues. Also just had my brakes touched for the first time - 8 years and 100k miles...

    Sun shades

    If i was in Vegas I'd be tinting my windsheild with a 50,60,70,80% (depending on what you're comfortable with) nano-ceramic tint to cut the heat. Some of them will cut 50+% of the heat transfered through the glass. Sure... if it's 120° outside and the truck is parked in the sun all day - the...

    Parts shortage... When will it end?

    Ordered a Yukon XL in Nov of 21'. Dealer got allotment for the SLT and options I had in June of 22'. Was built in August. Been waiting for parts, chips or shipping from Texas to the Midwest since then. No ETA. Dealer has no idea. Said he has a 1500 Silverado built in May of 22' ... still waiting...

    Payload capacity for 2023 Limited

    Slap some LT tires on it, maybe some heavier rear coils. You'll be fine.

    Winter Traction

    Correct. I like the studs as the rubber is harder/last longer. Having said that - I'm putting Blizzaks on the wifes 4wd Yukon XL when it shows up. Only been waiting 12 months. I had a dream of her going off the road and flipping over in a creek/water way and dyeing during icy conditions. I also...

    Confirming Truck towing, plowing and payload numbers -- charts

    I wouldn't plow with a 1500 unless it was just a couple driveways. More commercially and you'll benefit from a 2500 or 3500.
