    Thoughts on Dealer Installed Michelins to replace stock 22" before shipping ?

    Hard to beat the Michelin Defender for all around roadability including wet and snow covered roads. Wear and handling are also excellent. It's all I've put on my cars and trucks over the last 15 years or so including my wife's cars. I'm from Michigan so we get our share of snow and ice related...

    Ivory tri coat pearl or bright white??

    My 19 Ram Laramie (Delmonico Red Pearl tricoat) has been repaired twice in my dealers shop. One hit was just below the grill in the front and the other was on the rear quarter between the wheel well and the tail light. Both have been repainted and you can not see where the paint has been...

    Price negotiated from MSRP

    When I bought my 19 Ram Laramie the only one that had the options I wanted was in Kokomo Indiana. The dealer made the trade and drove to Kokomo to get it. When it was delivered to me it had 605 miles on it. It had been involved in 2 dealer trades so it went from a dealer in Sterling Heights Mi...

    Ram / Mopar Bed Utility Ram Installation

    Check out the method (my post #8) in the video referenced above for installing the Rivnuts. I'll post the link again as this method works great, it just takes a bit longer than the installation tool but the nuts won't spin when installed this way as you can tell when they are tight...

    Laramie with smaller tires/rims?

    Take a look at the Rebels, they come with 18's IIRC

    Air conditioning performance

    I believe the fan pulls air through the seat. A piece of paper on the seat back will stick if the fan is running and fall when it's switched off.

    I just don't get it

    My 19 Laramie had the same issue and Invisible Glass wouldn't cut the film. I went to Griot's Garage Premium Foam cleaner from Autozone and it did a much better job. I did protect the paint from the cleaner also.

    Moonroof squeaking. What to use?

    I appreciate that fact but my point was that if it's under warranty why not let the dealer do it. I'm not coating anything with anything when it's under warranty.

    Moonroof squeaking. What to use?

    What's wrong with the dealer if it's under warranty. Very little good comes from adding lubricant where it's not needed as it can collect dust and dirt and inhibit operation. It may need a small adjustment as my 19 Laramie has no squeaks.

    Nervous about buying a 2019 1500 Laramie

    I don't believe there is a setting to change the speakers when the phone is in use as it should be using them all. You could try resetting the radio or pulling the negative battery terminal for an hour or so. This seems to cure a lot of these fiddly issues with the radio. It will take an hour or...

    xm presets saving, but suddenly reverting to previous presets out of the blue

    If it's still under warranty, tell the dealer it's not working right and let them figure it out.

    “In and out” sales process?

    I'll blame you for forcing me to post the Ned Beatty had the hardest part song.

    2021 Software and Map Update

    Thanks for the post. I had been setting on my update and maps for a few days. The software update took about 30 min. and the map update slightly less. The system is working well and I also see the improvement in the weather maps. There are also more side streets on the new map install then the...

    Anyone recommend where to buy OEM parts at the best discount

    I've used a couple of local Ram dealers with the 15% off coupon they have on their site. Price comes close to internet offers and the shipping is free to the dealers as the parts just come in the truck with their other parts. Just need to pick them up at the dealer.
