    Will We See A “DT” Based Ram Regular Cab? 6’4 RamBox?

    Its a real disappointment that no one seems to sell reg cab short box trucks anymore. They are a blast to drive, look great and are fast due to the reduced weight. I noticed that Chevy is making regular cab trailboss trucks for the middle east, but not north america. This seems like a missed...

    Auto high beams are useless

    I love mine and dislike driving at night in my other vehicles that don't have them. I live down a country road, and being as it is dark for most of the day during the winter they are a great feature to have. When i drive other vehicles, including a cadillac CT6 with excellent LED lights i find...

    CAUGHT: 2021 Ram 1500 Rebel TRX Testing On The Streets:

    Good to see more info trickling in on the TRX! That is a very wide axle, so it should have a killer stance with wide flared arches similar to the Ramrunner or the 4th gen TRX concept.

    About to purchase a Limited, what does 8-Spd Auto 8HP75 Trans (Buy-US) mean?

    Compared to my 17 sport it is a touch quicker and a little smoother. I understand it is also more efficient also and the ratios are a little different.

    About to purchase a Limited, what does 8-Spd Auto 8HP75 Trans (Buy-US) mean?

    As far as i know, Fiat Chrysler manufactures the ZF design in house in the USA. Some other manufactures purchase them pre-built from ZF. I have the upmost confidence in this transmission, the previous gen was excellent and the new one is rated for more torque and is just as smooth. It is also...

    Carbon Filter Delete?

    All emissions stuff is bad and should be removed post haste! lol. Every single aftermarket intake system will not retain the carbon filter, it wont hurt anything to take it out.

    Carbon Filter Delete?

    If you are in there to replace the stock filter with a drop in aftermarket, you may as well remove the carbon filter. Just the carbon on its own was not noticeable in my opinion, but with both the K and N and the filter delete it was just enough to get a touch more noise. Maybe a couple HP but...

    Totally thrilled with new Ram 1500 - mods rock too!

    good feedback! do you use the edge screen or just the pulsar on its own?

    Totally thrilled with new Ram 1500 - mods rock too!

    Glad your truck is also problem free! I certainly love mine and agree that bad news often drowns out all of the happy owners out there. What specific drive-ability improvements did you get with the pulsar?

    Has anyone pulled the carbon filter from the air box ?

    I pulled it, no noticeable gain in sound or power. If you are installing an aftermarket filter my opinion is that you might as well pull it... if you gain a few hp from deleting it and a few more from the new filter it might be worth it, and who doesn't like free mods?

    2019 Laramie black edition 0-60mph

    I would think it would be similar to the laramie tested by car and driver, 22" wheels probably slow it down by a tenth but 3:92 gears should get that back. 5.9 -6.2 seconds should be close.

    2" Lowering Springs

    I would like to see this as well, lots of lifted trucks around now but not many lowered.

    Anyone good with PhotoShop?

    what i want to see is a cross hair / gen 4 style grill on a 5th gen. I'm surprised that they haven't been floating around all over the place as many people seem to lament the fact that the new trucks didn't retain that historic design feature.

    Anyone removed the Filter that's in the intake lid?

    I removed mine and would say it made little to no difference to the performance or sound. It does have carbon in it so it makes sense that it is for emissions. I was hoping for more intake noise but it isn't noticeable.

    Slight vibration

    To back up the tire idea, the previous gen GM trucks and SUV use the same tires i believe.... both in 22" and the 20".

    Slight vibration

    I notice a vibration at around 60MPH with my 3;92 gears and 22" wheels, it is very minor but more noticeable in 4x4 auto. In my mind it is a very minimal annoyance in the smoothest and quietest truck I have ever had. Its one of those things that if you know its supposed to be an issue, you...
