    Rear alignment

    Nothing major happened that would cause a structural problem. I won't worry about it probably.

    Anything to worry about or attempt to fix?

    Rear alignment

    Here is the spec sheet. It is 0.26 rear thrust, but was 0.15 for the original alignment that I went in to get corrected (seemed steering wheel was not centered). But they said they didn't touch rear thrust, yet the measurement is worse. Is this still problem? Should I take to a shop to get...

    2026 RAM 1500 Hemi 5.7 recommended oil 0w-20.

    I use Kirkland brand (Costco) full synthetic, made by Warren, 5W-30. Runs great with it. Smoother and quieter than when I ran the spec'd 5W-20 (mostly Pennzoil Platinum).

    Rear alignment

    Recently got an alignment. 2020 Laramie, see sig. Was told the rear axle can't be aligned, only a thrust value that can be read but can't be adjusted. It was 0.15 deg. I took it back for the front (steering wheel wasn't centered) and while there to look at the rear again. This time it was...

    Differential Fluid and eTorque repairs

    It has been a while since I posted on here. Just wanted to share a couple things about repairs and maintenance on my 2020 eTorque, about 46k miles. About a month ago I changed the differential fluid to Valvoline Synpower synthetic. It was really easy to do (easier than an oil change (8mm fill...

    Who here is looking forward to the Hurricane?

    My next truck will probably be a Chevy. I don't like Ford (had a 2018), and don't want a V6 turbo if a V8 is an option. Then again, if in the new generation of the V8 GM still doesn't make it dual injected and only direct injected, I'll be looking at RAM again and Toyota. Still have 3-4 more...

    Aftermarket power running boards?

    Could look at the Rough Country boards, too. Much less expensive.

    Did I get ripped off? Dealership up-charged?

    As to the OP... Differential fluid was not due yet. Takes 5 or 6 quarts at $15 each to do front and rear and is easier than engine oil to change. You did get ripped off there, but it is done so... Brake fluid is more about time than mileage. Not bad to get it done every 3 or 4 years. But...

    Price negotiated from MSRP

    My Aug 2020 build Laramie was $55,100 MSRP. Last I checked was May, but MSRP on that same build was over $68k. 26% increase in 33 months.

    New CAFE Standards Published Today (LOL)

    They will be rescinded, just like the appliance regs. Because NCSWIC.
