    Best method for storing items that you always keep in the cab?

    Good Thread... I have a quad cab, and had no space issues of having a QC Ram for the last 4 years. Now I have a newborn, 1 month old, and just started having some big spacing issues. The car seat and base takes up major back seat room. It was a 60 degree day in NY, so we had to pack in a...

    Sadness When Selling an Old Car

    I sold my beloved 07 Mazdaspeed 6 earlier this year, as the original owner. I drove that car all over the place and enjoyed every minute through hot summer days to wretched winter snow storms. It never let me down or stranded me anywhere. All it took was normal maintenance wear, which I...

    Do you think they will come out with a Street version TRX??

    I’d prefer that over the TRX. Would still hope it could tow as well.

    Trailer electrical hookup

    I just used a 4pin trailer for the first time on mine yesterday. I didn’t do anything besides connect the harness to the plug. Lights remained in the Auto position. Maybe the harness is corroded?

    Pandemic Market: Buy or Wait

    Personally, I’d wait it out as long as possible. Let inventory levels rise, let manufacturers produce, and perhaps over produce, then strike. I was fully committed in adding to the stable this year, but the situation put me back on the sidelines because I don’t NEED another car, especially...

    2021 RAM TRX

    Was reading elsewhere that their inside source had the base TRX coming in at just under $70k. What I’m curious if they will eventually have a 6.4 come out as a base bringing the entry price down a bit. Also, don’t forget the Challenger/Charger line up still have the Power Dollars rebate going...

    Re: parking lots

    I always park as reasonably far as possible. I have palpitations thinking about leaving any of my cars in a regular parking lot spot any where. My wife busts my chops, but then again my cars don’t look like my wife’s.

    Backup Camera on 5” screen; does yours use full screen?

    That’s definitely odd. My truck hasn’t been to the dealer since I’ve purchased it. I didn’t think they could do OTA updates on this particular screen. Thanks for the input. It’s not worth my time to take it into the dealer to ask. With me working from home, it may be another year before I need...

    Backup Camera on 5” screen; does yours use full screen?

    I don’t know if my brain is playing tricks on me, but I thought our rear backup camera took the whole screen? When I jumped in the truck the other day, it seemed out of place having two vertical blacks bars at the sides. It’s been that way a couple days now, and now can’t remember if it was...

    Aftermarket brake controller location

    There was an existing mounting screw under that area. Can’t comment what happens in an accident, though it sits low enough that I don’t think it’s an issue. You know where to pull the OEM connection cable from right? It should be taped to another connection up there. You have to stick your...

    Here’s where I mounted mine.

    2020 Bighorn radio volume won’t get loud

    I have a stock sound system with a 5” screen. I noticed that my sound system never got loud enough with the knob all turned up. From another large thread on here, it was suggested to change out the front two dash speakers. I put in kickers and the sound is MUCH louder and sounds a million...

    What did you do to your Ram today???

    What do you guys think about these Ram overlay stickers? When I opened the package, I didn’t think I’d like them, but after putting them on, I did really like them a lot. The colors go with Billet Silver and my existing Flag decals on the rear windows.

    Ram Door Handle. Chrome insert gone.

    Ahh, yea, no personal experience in door handles, but have seen the 2019 DT parts catalog is a lot more robust than 2020.

    Ram Door Handle. Chrome insert gone.

    I do and I think they’re likely the same as 2020, but RA hasn’t updated their parts catalog. I was looking at a couple things for my 2020, and I didn’t see them. When I switched to 2019, they had a ton more parts/options. Can’t say 100% for every part, but doesn’t seem to be many changes...
