And my truck is still getting lemon lawed...

Lemon law case is still crawling along. Best as I remember, my truck has a little over 1100 miles on it. I bought it late August '24. It appears that ram is going to actually take this to trial. Unless they suddenly offer a settlement, there's no way this isn't going to drag into next year...

I wish they'd bring back regular cabs.

Similar stuff has been said about them on the f150 site I frequent.

You are free to not put 2 quarts in your truck if it tells you to. Hassling him for doing that is a bit on the tarded side. Yes, you are starting to hassle him. He answered the question of why he did it, and then showed a picture of the actual specific direct warning. I think he's running...

I'm surprised you got a dealer to actually try to fix that, like others said, it's likely operating as designed.

It's probably normal. My guess is the fan is run fast on a hot start to get the heat out of the heat soaked intercooler quickly before the engine can get heavily loaded.

Bring a regular cab short bed back. Ford is the only one making that with a v8, and they don't much want to make those. They only offer them in the lowest trim level. I ended up going to Atlanta (from Iowa) to get mine, the replacement for my lemon ram.

Being somewhat sarcastic here, but that might bankrupt them in days or weeks!

You have arrived at the correct answer, at least as far as warranty is concerned. The engineer is also very likely correct.

Good point. Surely no dealer, or ram itself, would dispute the Edmunds article should a decision arise concerning warranty coverage of an HO truck run on 87 octane.

My advice would be to think hard about the concept of slapping down the price of a small home for a pickup truck...

Mine with 3.55's did it, along with check engine light flashing, misfires, stalling...

If you had gotten my '25 laramie with a S.O. it would not be hard to get you back into a hemi. You got lucky and apparently got one of the good ones.

It's getting lemon lawed.
