    MOPAR OEM PARTS DIRECT - aka Grand Junction CJDR of Grand Junction, CO - DO NOT PURCHASE PARTS ONLINE FROM THESE FOOLS

    Agree, I submitted it yesterday. And I just placed my order with Accessory.Parts - extremely competitive, fast response via this forum and great to deal with!

    What would you buy?

    My 21 Big Horn Ecodiesel has 1,731 lbs payload and 10,131 max towing.

    MOPAR OEM PARTS DIRECT - aka Grand Junction CJDR of Grand Junction, CO - DO NOT PURCHASE PARTS ONLINE FROM THESE FOOLS

    I have no issues paying a restocking fee (and have done so in the past without issue) unless the parts department screws up an order and sends me something I did not order…like the primer’d mirror caps instead of the PR4 caps I ordered. As for the restocking fee these fools charged me, I placed...

    MOPAR OEM PARTS DIRECT - aka Grand Junction CJDR of Grand Junction, CO - DO NOT PURCHASE PARTS ONLINE FROM THESE FOOLS

    I didn’t realize we had a MOPAR parts vendor on the forum. I’ll send you a PM momentarily. Thanks!

    What would you buy?

    I LOVE my Ecodiesel and wouldn’t recommend purchasing anything else in the 1500 lineup. I owned two 2nd Gens and now this 3rd Gen…night and day difference, and IMHO nothing to be afraid of as it appears they (FCA/Stellantis) learned from their mistakes.

    MOPAR OEM PARTS DIRECT - aka Grand Junction CJDR of Grand Junction, CO - DO NOT PURCHASE PARTS ONLINE FROM THESE FOOLS

    Agree 100% with BAM. They have always been stellar with every purchase. I tried to go cheap with the other guys and cheap is typically never good. I’ll stick with BAM or my local dealer from now on.

    Rebel with P0088 code

    When is the last time you had it in to the dealer for a PCM/ECM update? I feared it was a pump issue but in reality, all it took was a simple update. P0088 is a generic code, so it can have many potential triggers. Here are the most common: Failed fuel pressure regulator or fuel control...

    MOPAR OEM PARTS DIRECT - aka Grand Junction CJDR of Grand Junction, CO - DO NOT PURCHASE PARTS ONLINE FROM THESE FOOLS

    A heads up for anyone thinking of purchasing from MOPAR OEM PARTS DIRECT as these guys are crooks. When you place an order online, they give you a price for shipping however it is an estimated price. I've found their price of shipping is actually 40% to 50% higher than the "estimate" price...

    Extended Warranties

    You can purchase the extended factory warranty from Zeiger and finance it at 0% for 12 months. Don't get Zeigler's price and then take it to the dealer where they will roll it into your loan with interest. If you purchase from the dealer, make them match the price and 0% for 12 months. If...

    Wind noise

    Have utilized this method since the 70’s and works like a charm with no waiting in the dealer service center!

    Sleeping in the truck ideas, back seat mattress

    When they were in stock at Sam’s Club, I purchased two of these. They unzip. You can unzip one of them to cut the foam down so they fit perfectly on 100% of the rear floor area. The dog has never complained and neither have I on hunting/fishing trips when I needed a place to rest...

    NO TAILGATE AJAR WARNING ?? 2020 ram rebel

    A bit of friendly advice…don’t give those Ford drivers the bird as they drive by honking/laughing when you’re doing your walk of shame…they tend to circle back and start running over your good stuff.

    NO TAILGATE AJAR WARNING ?? 2020 ram rebel

    I wouldn’t lose sleep over it as I’ve learned to simply press the rear camera button if I have a concern…if I see the guy behind me then I’m good…if I see pavement, then it’s time to pull over and start the walk of shame back down the highway to collect the good stuff I really want to keep! 😉

    DEF Tank SKID PLATE made of FELT is Garbage

    I ordered the 2020 skid plate and it’s taking a little longer for it to arrive at the dealer. They said it should be in later this coming week but no guarantee. He said the regional distribution center in Dallas didn’t have one and they are getting it shipped in…no other details.

    TheftPatrolPlus GPS Tracker Removal - Junk installed by Dealer

    It appears they didn't notify these Ram owners either: https://5thgenrams.com/community/threads/what-is-this-obd2.26837/#post-379423 https://5thgenrams.com/community/threads/alphaobd-voiding-warranty.38920/#post-580113

    TheftPatrolPlus GPS Tracker Removal - Junk installed by Dealer

    They didn't tell me. I told them up front I didn't want their TheftPatrol as the truck already has UConnect which can track the truck - why pay twice for a similar service. Well, they told me it was already installed but would not be activated. I received an email from TheftPatrol welcoming...

    TheftPatrolPlus GPS Tracker Removal - Junk installed by Dealer

    I know for a fact Northwest Chrysler here in Houston installed my daughters in less than ten minutes. They did it when I was executing paperwork. Keep in mind that all they need to do is pull up the kick panel by your left foot, piggyback the unit into your OBD connection from the back side...

    TheftPatrolPlus GPS Tracker Removal - Junk installed by Dealer

    For those who want to read the Terms of Service from TheftPatrol, you'll notice they accept almost no liability, yet they have full access to all data transmitted from your Ram to their center (per Article 1 of the Terms of Service) which is now in Irvine, California at 17361 Armstrong Ave. The...

    Anti Theft for 2022' 1500 Limited

    For what it’s worth, IMHO you have two options: 1). Trade your Limited for a Tradesman or a Big Horn. I’ve literally seen it on my camera where thieves will walk past my truck and over to a Limited or Longhorn to break a window for a set of cowboy boots and other crap of value they found...
