Sure, if you read my other comments, I already mentioned my next Rebel will be a Hurricane, even though I love the sound of my Hemi. Mainly because I will be buying it in the Philippines, it just better matches the driving environment it's going to be in, can probably idle for long periods of...

That's a lot of people.

Seems like a waste of energy to leave them on, but I get your point about what people think, but just can't help myself, especially if they think my RAM is broken, just some Toyota or GM guy chuckling to himself lol.

Yup, I realized I had them during an episode of TFL truck testing a new Rebel on YouTube, someone in the comments mentioned the fog light was already out. Then another comment said they acted as turning lights and only lighted on the direction of the steer. Tested it myself, liked it, since it...

The clean white paper towel trick worked for me, just dipped a tip in the top of the radiator and bright purple.

The tube of flowable sealant is just as easy a fix. My truck is 7 years old, hasn't leaked yet, but when it does, I'm doing this.

For the shark fin, did you do the only the center gasket? I'm wondering because the outside gasket along the edge has a back slit to allow water to exit. I want to preemtively do my back window and 3rd brake light, but was also considering the shark fin.

The battery life of a TPMS sensor is about 7 years, if one was going out, likely the rest will follow. The aftermarket ones are hit and miss. To fix your problem, buy the OEM ones, there are brick and motor Stellantis dealerships that sell parts wholesale on Ebay, you can probably find a set...

That sounds interesting, did you have a link to that report or a Google title so I can search it?

Did they do an engineers analysis on the 6.4L what come with 40w that also have this issue?

I agree as well, not sure if it's true, but rather not find out, but the Hurricane is a great motor. I love the roar of my Hemi, but the type of driving I'll be doing in the Philippines, I rather have it quiet for those 5 hour long drives in traffic. Plus, the Philippines is about a year off...

I decided on the Hurricane with my Philippine spec truck. The responses from owners groups there, many of which have or had owned the 5.7, that the Hurricane has no issues idling all day long. The 5.7L actually doesn't have the greatest reputation for long idling, which based on some reports...

True, it's only 5 more hp and same torque on paper (400hp / 410 lbs-ft). Though seems to have a lot left in regards to tuning and setup, that same motor in the Mustang GT makes 486hp and 418bs-ft of torque. The 5.7L Hemi in the Challenger only made 375hp / 410 lb-ft. In fact, the most...

Makes sense, just that noting the fact the weakest V8 in any truck line is one of the best volume sellers for that brand. Stellantis has put giant V8s in their lineups, but it's rarely been the volume engine, it's to get people in the door. As for Stellantis, of course they are trying to ignore...

The Hemi isn't the weakest V8, that would be the 5.3L in the GM trucks, and was their volume motor across trucks and SUVs. I think the last thing Stellantis wants is more V8s in the 1500, I think they want to be more like Ford with Hurricanes being the volume motors (like their EcoBoost 3.5L &...
