    Capless Fuel System Locking Gas Cap?

    These days I'm not worried about anyone trying to steal from the nozzle, I'm just worried about some crazy bum using a drill and trying to get it directly from the tank.

    Ram Isn’t Saying NO To A 5.7-liter HEMI® RHO

    Why Ram Can’t Build a Full-Size Truck for Under $40K

    You can get it under 40K with rebates and discounts off MSRP. I mean it wasn't long ago most experienced truck buyers automatically took 15% (or more) off the MSRP right off the bat. Of course the Covid market changed that, but it should be heading back there now. One of my local dealers is...

    The dreaded leaking and cracked rear window frame

    That's awesome, is the design similar or is it essentially like the Ford design where there's a square in the middle of the glass?

    Ram Ups the Ante with 10-Year, 100K-Mile Powertrain Warranty

    Awesome, so you did you basic training in the old shacks like I did. We were the last cycle to do basic in old style two story wood barracks, they switched over to the modern multi-story "starship" barracks from that point on. Germany was everyone's dream location after training, besides...
