    Price negotiated from MSRP

    So you’ve been working in the retail sector since you were 9 years old? 😂😂😂 your profile says you’re 49. Now that’s some work ethic!

    Price negotiated from MSRP

    I find it curious when people say “after xxx discount you’ll still make money” ?! Being in sales all my life I would like to say that “profit” is not a bad word. It makes the world go round, people feed their families, etc. Trust me when I say I am no fan of some car dealers and the process...

    5100 Leveling Bighorn BTS

    Hi there. I just had 5100’s installed on my 2024 Laramie 6.4 bed. The shock body has 7 grooves. I put the clip on the 5th groove which according to Bilstein is 1.7” over stock. Ride height is perfect in my opinion. I also had 5100 on my previous F150. They are excellent shock with digressive...

    Motor oil and the Hemi tic.

    Thanks. I didn’t know they started 0w20 in 2022 since the truck was redesigned for model year 2019. Good to know. I’ll still follow OEM suggestions.

    Motor oil and the Hemi tic.

    As you mentioned, many opinions on this topic. I would love to hear from any 5th gen HEMI owners that have used the 0-20 oil its whole life and have well over 100k miles on the clock. What would they say? Any engine problems? I have 5,300 miles on mine and plan on changing oil for the first...

    Horrible First Impressions - Huge Fail

    As a newbie here, I came do learn about my truck and share ideas, get advice and or generally engage with like-minded gear heads. I’m 62 and have been around cars, trucks, bikes for a long -long time. Wanted to get that out of the way. While this member y’all are talking about may have...

    Price negotiated from MSRP

    Not really apples and oranges compassions as you mention with all the dealer ad-ons. Those you choose (or not). If they force it just walk. I believe this exercise was “what did you pay off MSRP” which is the starting point for most buyers. Invoice and all just convolutes the matter as you’ll...

    MOPAR power running boards

    Hi there, I have a ‘24 Laramie and getting them installed at my local dealer next week. I have had AMP boards on two f150’s with zero problems but gladly went with RAM boards for a couple of reasons. 1) AMP boards power operate via a plug that connects to the OBD port 2) the Mopar boards...

    Mopar 2" Lift...am i dumb??

    I know I’m late to this party. I have had Bilstein 5100 on a 2021 f150 and it accomplished my goal. Near level stance and reduced a heavy nose dive on braking. Ride was a “tad” firmer by I would call it more compliant and confident. About ready to do the same on my 2024 Laramie just for...

    Input on AT tires

    In all three brands I listed, I ran 275/70/18 as I believe no truck has any business running 20 Or 22’s in my humble opinion. All were load range E as I tow a large boat about 5-10 times per year. No problem with ride quality. Although mpg is important to most of us, it’s a truck with a v-8...

    Input on AT tires

    Hey there. I’ve had experience with three brands on your list. (1) Open country AT3: Bought them on good reviews and loved the way they looked. Absolutely Dangerous IN THE RAIN!!! Had them on an f150 with 2.7 EcoBoost. Would spin the tires with light throttle from a stop. Freeway on...

    UConnect Navigation Update Email - "NO THANKS RAM"

    UConnect Navigation Update Email - "NO THANKS RAM"

    If you "need" navigation to give you the very latest info on business, etc, then imbedded systems may not be ideal as they only update once, perhaps twice per year. I for one, and sure many others as well only care that it gets me to my destination or close proximity. The only time there would...

    UConnect Navigation Update Email - "NO THANKS RAM"

    Google maps BLOWS away apple maps which has gotten me lost several times at which point I deleted it off my phone. That said, while the factory navigation is as user friendly as Google maps on Apple car-play, its the only navigation that works in the Sierra Nevada mountains where I don't have...

    GT Exhaust?

    Hmm, that's not what I've learned here perhaps in another thread topic? I will get it sorted out once the dealer see's my trucks. Thanks for all the input.

    GT Exhaust?

    Well I can't speak for your neighborhood, but mine is so quiet you can hear a frog fart. All relative my friend, I didn't come here to debate what sounds good, or is noisy, etc., I just want a quieter exhaust. If I want sound I'll fire up my Mustang GT350

    GT Exhaust?

    Ha ha, well the dealer is probably going to want them for warranty exchange. We'll see how that goes. I have an appt in a couple of weeks.

    GT Exhaust?

    Hey there, newbie here. Just bought a 2024 Ram Laramie Hemi e-torque Sport package / hood. Its VERY loud to me so much so that I can't remote start it in the AM in my super quiet neighborhood. Called local dealer, they have no clue. After spending hours online I found this forum and have...
