    What did you do to your Ram today???

    Got my '23 new 3 weeks ago. First thing I've bought for it, Husky bed mat. Figure I might get a spray in liner later, but wanted something for now so it doesn't get too scratched up. Seems to fit well. Planning to do new speakers, amp, DSP within the next few months. Then wheels and tires at...

    Had to get new tires.

    I'm more interested to hear how they are in 20 - 30K miles. I'm adamant on getting tires I've heard of. Really only a few brands I would consider. Probably get Falken AT4 when I'm ready. Possibly Cooper, BFG, or MT Baja Boss.

    2019 Rebel Turn Signal Stalk Will Not Hold Right Turn Position

    Sounds like the multi-function switch needs to be replaced. That would be quite annoying. I had that happen on a previous car.

    Towing Mirrors?

    I have the tow mirrors, did want the tow package. Definitely an adjustment to get used to them. I'm about 3 weeks into owning mine and am getting there. Bottom line is you can adjust the larger portion of the mirror with the electric controls, but have to manually adjust the smaller outside...

    How to tell what flavor Longhorn I just bought

    When you go to the Ram website, it lists them as 'Limited Longhorn'. Price range seems correct. So that's what I think you have.

    Dumb question- 4 Auto

    The Rubi also will only let you engage the lockers in 4lo, which is another reason many bypass the oem switch. They just need a simple 12 volt switch to engage.

    Dumb question- 4 Auto

    Yeah, that is annoying that the OEM switch shuts off at 25mph. Many will bypass that switch and just install another. I had it like that in my 2012. That was because it wasn't a Rubicon but I swapped in a Rubi front D44. Had to tell my wife to NEVER hit that switch on pavement. She turned on the...

    Dumb question- 4 Auto

    Also another fun fact: The Ram has 4Auto standard, available on the Big Horn, maybe the Tradesman too. With Ford, you can't get 4auto unless you get the Lariat (similar to the Laramie) or higher.

    2020 BTS Stock rims. Looking to offset. Any help appreciated.

    They need to bring back the Destroyer Gray. I would've looked for it if they still had it. To the OP: Just sell your wheels to me, I like those. Almost bought a blue BTS. The wheels and tires were one of the main things I wanted.

    Dumb question- 4 Auto

    I don't have it on mine. Though I did have it on my previous Jeep. It is really difficult to know it's there, not as effective as many of the aftermarket LS. For offroading, you could try to get it to activate if you needed it. You could put the parking brake on 2 clicks (not all the way on) and...

    Dumb question- 4 Auto

    You and most others will never 'need' a locker. I wanted it on mine, but really doubt I would ever use it. I'm not planning to do many black diamond trails in my DD.

    How to desensitize throttle pedal?

    My wife did that on her first drive. The first was an 'oops'. Second time I saw her smiling.

    Dumb question- 4 Auto

    Agree with this, it's one or the other. The rear locker is the more expensive option and better for off roading (if needed) and ice. Though as you may have noticed, it's not like a LS. LS is better for wet/gravel conditions. The locker is more extreme and shouldn't be used on dry pavement...

    How to desensitize throttle pedal?

    Also make sure the auto stop/start isn't causing the problem. I turn mine off every time I start the truck. Gears could also be a factor if you have the 3.92. I test drove one and it was very quick to accelerate. The one I bought has 3.21 and is more subtle.

    Post a song...any song. Let's hear em!

    My favorite song from my favorite band. I saw them around 10 times during the 80's and 90's. Oingo Boingo - Grey Matter

    Yoda approves of the new truck. Especially the custom head rest.

    Duck a Jeep.. but for RAM

    Agreed! Leave me a beer or small bottle of whiskey. I don't care if you decorate it.

    POLL: What Color 2025 Would You Get?

    I selected Billet Silver and Forged Blue Metallic. Would've also selected Granite Crystal or whatever they're coming out with that might be close. I also really like the Night Edge Blue on the '24 BTS. Though looks like it's only available on those.

    Any issue mounting an ARB inside my Rambox?

    Thought about buying a Gladiator. Some good deals on those right now because dealers have too many. Figured a Ram gets better gas mileage with a V8, rides better, and can tow my Jeep on a trailer. Even if you never go offroad, having an air compressor can come in handy for flat tires and such...
