    2022 Limited 1500 Ram broke down

    No but they will do a buy back if you have the patience to call the national line, mention lemon laws, and then bounce paperwork back and forth with RAM and the dealer for a couple months.

    iPhone 12 Pro Max not wirelessly charging

    Exactly my experience. Slide it in on the left and then move it over a half inch so you have a clear view of the light. It is also a tight fit if you have a decent case on it. If the iPhone gets a few millimeters bigger next generation, hard to say if it will fit or charge.

    My Truck Just Stopped!!!

    These days, about half the new batteries fail in the first 2-3 years. They are asked to do so much these days with the various bells and whistles nickel and diming the battery when the truck is not running.

    F150 Lightning

    Had a nice 200 mile round trip over the Cascades and back yesterday in my Bolt. There was always the range anxiety in the background. Do I kill the climate control for some extra miles? Killed it and then I fogged up in a hail storm. I also drove the car keeping the car at green on the...

    Siriusxm renewal

    I am constantly dickering with them for the extended family fleet of 5 vehicles. We all like it but have varying degrees of subscription for each vehicle. A couple are a flat $6 a month for select package. The sound quality for the Sat has improved immensely over the years. Not to HD...

    Limited with ORG

    Hill descent with the ORG was the deciding factor on my Limited. I actually take it on dirt roads with some hairy switchbacks and decent climbs going up a few thousand feet (2-3 times a year). Easier to relax on the way down with descent control. Gives you time to pay attention to low hanging...

    Power Running Boards

    I have had them on and off over the years on all three of the big 3 half ton trucks. Only issue I ever had was large gravel getting lodged in the joints on the Chevy after 10 miles on a rutted dirt road. Always carried a large flat headed screwdriver to kick the gravel out and all was good.

    Decided To Not Lift My Truck

    First buying experience for a truck vaccinated me from ever doing it. Brand new but long on lot lifted Avalanche. They kept steering us towards it and we took it out for a test drive. Did not impress for ride or handling. What clinched it was my wife daring the salesman to climb into the bed...

    Is Air Suspension really that great?

    Yes and Yes!!!! I think the common failure days are the late 1980s. I had a couple of the Subaru XT sports coupes with air suspension and within ten years they got retrofitted with standard coils. Nice ride while it lasted. Then I had a 2011 Avalanche with air suspension with 164,000 miles...

    New guy here!

    Get a Chevy Colorado. Lots of shifting issues on my 2018 work truck. Will put your Challenger issues to shame. I had a partial harness failure that left me sputtering for a gear while going 60 on a busy freeway merge. That got fixed but still gives a random downshift lurch.

    Made the switch too

    Hello all, This my last stop of owning trucks of the big 3 (we won't count the year of owning a very used Subaru Baja). Started out with the Avalanche in 2005 and loved the air suspension introduced in later models. Then transitioned into the homily but reliable F-150s. Have been looking at...

    Help needed for bed step installation on my my RAM 1500.

    My 2021 Limited layout was different too. Thanks for the pics and how to pop the harness. Think I permanently broke the little black tab next to the red button. Also had to show the wife the great Chrysler engineering of the tape job covering up a mismatched harness cover. She taped it back...
