    What octane are we using?

    ARCO is now officially listed as a TOP TIER FUEL so no need to switch to Chevron or another to clean it out.

    What octane are we using?

    Totally agree with your conclusions/recommendations. You are spot on.

    Here are the 2019 Ram 1500 Hemi eTorque MPG numbers

    Would be appreciated for you gents reporting gas mileage to indicate if you are using the onboard MPG indicator or hand calculating plus share with us what octane level gasoline you are using. Mine just hit 700 miles and has not really seen many highway miles yet, but hope to do some calculating...

    Just got news of a tonneau cover that fits the DT with Ramboxes AND MFT.

    Mike, the last time I talked with BAKFlip their techs said none of their tonneau's were designed to fit the MFT. It was a rear seal with the MFT that was in question I believe, since as you mention the RAMBox option does not have the front corner brackets. That was last month, so you might...

    Weathertech Custom Sunshade -- Poor Fit

    Speedy -- I just went to the Covercraft website and they show 4 custom sunshades -- UVS 100 Custom -- UVS 100 Premier -- Carhartt USV 100 Custom and Flex Shade. Would appreciate knowing to which one of these you were referring when you said it "fits very well". Many thanks in advance.

    Weathertech Custom Sunshade -- Poor Fit

    This is my second time around with them. Think I would have learned by now. Never again with Weathertech.

    Weathertech Custom Sunshade -- Poor Fit

    Bought a Weathertech Custom Fit Sunshade (TS1192) from CARID for my 2020 Limited with the large sensor. Problem is that it sags around the sensor and is about an inch short on the driver's side. Sent photos to Weathertech and one of the customer service people said he would compare my photos...

    Multi-Function Tailgate Misalignment?

    Mind align correctly. I just have one cable that is longer than the other when the tailgate is functioning in the traditional tailgate mode. Supposed replacements are on order.

    Just got news of a tonneau cover that fits the DT with Ramboxes AND MFT.

    The current Agri-Cover website says that the LOMAX trifold cover will NOT fit the 2020 RAM 1500 with the RamBox and the MFT. Must have changed their minds.

    Here are the 2019 Ram 1500 Hemi eTorque MPG numbers

    Thanks for the info. I just passed 300 miles on mine so after I get some additional miles on it I will track mine.

    Just got news of a tonneau cover that fits the DT with Ramboxes AND MFT.

    The difference, as I understand it, is that when a conventional tailgate is opened, it moves evenly along the entire width of the tonneau rear seal. When the MFT barn doors are opened it is a different movement and consequently places a different stress on that same seal. Then closing the...

    Just got news of a tonneau cover that fits the DT with Ramboxes AND MFT.

    You are correct, there are no visible brackets with the RamBox option and MFT. Apparently, the construction of the RamBox option itself provides the necessary additional rigidity.
