    What did you do to your Ram today???

    Yep. Definitely better to just let that dirt go into the motor. LOL! Okay, being snarky, but really just trying to be a little funny while making a serious point. If driving conditions will clog up an oiled filter often, then changing to a non-oiled filter so it doesn't clog, well, that is...

    Dogpatch: "You're starting to sound like my ex-wife." Wife: "I didn't know you were married before." Dogpatch: "I wasn't." LOL!!

    What did you do to your Ram today???

    My garage is for motorcycles and related tools and equipment and scuba gear. I have lots of scuba tanks. My truck is a truck. A really nice truck, but it's still a truck. If it can't handle living outside, I don't want it.

    I dealt with the road salt problem by driving down to South Carolina. And staying.

    35 avg mpg

    Sadly, I think it does. I only went from stock 32 to 33" tires and Fuelly says it cost me something like 1.5 MPG.

    Distance per tank

    Do you actually know what the word "habit" means? Did you read your own post, where you said "the computer hasn't had a chance to learn your driving habits"? You didn't say "recent driving habits". You just said driving habits. Your habits are not something that just happened in your recent...

    Distance per tank

    :ROFLMAO: :ROFLMAO: :ROFLMAO: Selective memory much? This all started with me simply saying that your driving habits have nothing to do with the DTE calculation. It IS based on recent driving history. Driving habits are not a factor AT ALL. They MAY be reflected in your recent history, but...

    Distance per tank

    Yes, your recent driving history could absolutely reflect the way you habitually drive. But, your recent driving history could also be completely different than how you drive by habit. The truck doesn't care how you drive habitually. It only cares how you were driving recently. If you...

    Distance per tank

    The range calculation is not based on driving habits, ever. It is just recent driving history. So, yeah, a brand new truck that has only been driven in town is going to show a very low range calculation.

    Best retractable tones for 1500 w/Rambox

    But, having had multiple Retrax covers and a BakFlip in the past, which could be used in a part-open position, I have not missed that at all in my 4 years now with Revolver covers.

    Best retractable tones for 1500 w/Rambox

    You can stop anywhere. But, there is nothing to secure it in a halfway position. If you roll it all the way up, there are straps with QR buckles to secure it fully rolled up. And, once it's open at all, the flanges that grab the side rails to hold the cover down are all released. So, the whole...

    REV vs Ramcharger - who would buy a REV?

    My gut says the more relevant question is, if you have some fault with the battery pack that prevents it from being charged/discharged, can you still use the ICE generator by itself to drive the truck to a dealership for repair? I don't see anyone trying to drive with no battery pack installed...

    REV vs Ramcharger - who would buy a REV?

    Autos with battery packs are not new. Autos with electric motors to drive the wheels are not new. The Pentastar 3.6L V6 is not new. I think there is a lot of FUD being spread around about the Ramcharger and I am skeptical that it is going to be as bug-ridden, expensive, or complex to repair or...
