    Android Auto/Spotify problems 2019 Ram Limited

    Is anyone all the sudden having problems when plugging their Android phone into the USB and no longer being able to change tracks or make selections either on the touchscreen or the steering wheel? It's been working fine except for the last two weeks. The only way I can change tracks or...

    Power Running Boards do not close consistently

    It's happened to me several times. Doesn't go up until I start driving about 10 ft or so. Strange issue that happens only occasionally.

    What Direct-fit Muffler should I get?

    Flowmaster FX. It's got a really nice deep bass tone to it. Not overly loud, raspy or trumpety. It really comes alive when you tromp on the go pedal. I will warn you that when the truck goes into 4 cylinder mode it can be a little obnoxious at low rpms and speed. There is a reason why the...

    Air conditioning performance

    Same here. When it's 90 degrees out, my Uconnect screen says it's 115 degrees! Crazy.

    Real world AC Test! New RAM vs F150!

    TFL truck just published it's video in an AC comparison test. Ram is 52 degrees vs. 42 degrees at the vent from the F150. Despite the vent temp difference, at the end of the test...there was only a total difference in cab temperature of 1.7 degrees. Interesting despite the 10 degree temp...

    What an Amazing Truck!

    Congrats! I have a Limited as well. The interior is absolutely the most luxurious in the current truck market. The exterior is nice change for Ram, but the interior is what sold me. I absolutely LOVE riding/driving this truck. They knocked it out of the park for 2019. I came from a Toyota so...

    Flowmaster 717847 Direct-fit Muffler 2019 Ram 1500 5.7L, FlowFX, Stainless Steel

    I have the Flowmaster direct fit # 717847. Super easy install at home in the driveway. Sounds awesome on startup, idle, and hard acceleration. As long as your in 8 cylinder mode it's perfect. A few notches louder than stock but much more bass and growl which I love. Zero rasp. However.... it...

    Anybodys "outside" temperature display reading wayyyy off?

    Yeah...I'm sure it's not related to the interior AC then if the sensor is on the mirror. My truck faces the west in the afternoon so maybe the sun is hitting the mirror just right. As I drive the temperature comes down. Maybe the chrome mirror just gets super hot in the direct sun.

    Flowmaster...Borla...Magnaflow???

    I put on the Flowmaster 717847. Very easy direct bolt in. Not too loud. I love hearing this truck start up now. Gives a nice deep bass rumble at idle. Comes alive when you throw the go pedal down. However....when MDS kicks in quite frankly it sounds terrible. I expected it might. Sounds like a...

    Anybodys "outside" temperature display reading wayyyy off?

    I got in my 19' Limited yesterday and it was 80 degrees outside. What's crazy is my temperature reading on the Uconnect display was 106 degrees! It seems to be reading the interior temperature and not the outside ambient temperature. I say that because the temperature comes down with the AC on...

    Scared to pull the trigger on 2019 Limited...

    Almost 700 miles here. I had one issue and it was assembly line related caused by an overlooked unsecured wiring harness. That harness was rubbing up against the bracket for the computer and rubbed through a wire that fed several sensors and caused a short. I've put on 500 miles since then and...

    etorque does more than help with starts and smooth out shifts ....

    Boy...I'd hate to know what it costs to replace that giant generator or other parts of the E-torque system when the warranty is up!
