    2022 5.7 (no etorque) -- 0w-20 vs 5w-30

    I agree to disagree. It might be the same 5.7 motor but I'm SURE the electronics and sensors are different then what it was in the past. The newer 5.7 engine (starting roughly around 2013) with the 8 speed trans have sensors that detect the oil viscosity and will throw a code on it if you run...

    2021 Stolen Ram Rebel 1500!

    Trying to figure out what I want to do security wise for my ram and ran into this thread. I have a tazer in my charger. There are pros and cons to every security system. I actually like the tazer because there are trying to fix something that dodge/ram won't. With that said, first time they...

    Tightening Up Body Roll/Steering?

    I know on my 2020, the Bilstein shocks helped alot with body roll. It made it more stiff around corners, and tighten up the ride a bit. Stock shocks on these are soft in my opinion. It's different when you get into a rebel. 2022 Ram Big Horn Back Country 2016 Dodge Charger scat pack 2021 Jeep...

    What's your experience with your local RAM dealer's service dept.

    The problem is that not all dealers are the same when it comes to customer support. There are alot more CDJR dealers in a 30 mile area ( i counted 7 so far) then there are audi dealers in my area (2 that I know of in the same 30 mile area) so service might be more of a priority at audi...

    Don't know if anyone responded, but folks here suggest that it's a spring that gives it the 1" lift. I debated that, and failed. Are you keeping stock front struts and rear springs or not? 2022 Ram Big Horn Back Country 2016 Dodge Charger scat pack 2021 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited Sahara

    Stellantis has threatened to move Ram 1500 production to Mexico, union leader says

    Corporate greed at its finest...lots of republican traits here...with big salaries up top and little for the working man here. The trickle down effect isn't happening as promised. I can't fault the union here asking for better pay, and better conditions but if your going to go on Facebook live...

    275/65/20 on OEM 20" rims north edition? any fitment or rubbing issues?

    You are right the offset is important. My offset is +1...so it's super close to stock rims. Looking up my old pictures to show you the old stock factory 18" rims and tires, vs my 20" aftermarket rims. Tires is the same size, but 2" rim is the only difference. They are both falken wildpeak at3...

    passive entry question...

    Hard question to answer because right now automakers are leaving those optional parts off. For example... back in 2019, if your 8.4 inch screen didn't come with navigation, it would at least have the GPS antenna built in. Just needed to activate it, by "flipping the switch" on the computer to...

    275/65/20 on OEM 20" rims north edition? any fitment or rubbing issues?

    My backcountry has the same setup (2021 models was the north edition, then in 2022 changed it to back country). And my aftermarket fuel 20" rim and I run those tires with no issues. I have aftermarket mud flaps and I had to trim the inside ever so slightly because at full lock it would rub. If I...

    Lets See Your BackCountry Trim Trucks!!

    Walking my dog and took a quick snapshot of the upper control arm and how close it is and I guess it's possible to go a little wider. All I did was just go to a bigger rim size. The numbers you are referring to...is really close to my setup...according to tiresize.com/comparison 2022 Ram Big...

    Lets See Your BackCountry Trim Trucks!!

    I went with aftermarket rims and was able to get 275/65/R20 (34.1" tire) with very little trimming on the mud flaps I have. I didn't check the upper control arms to see how close it is...but I think that is where you might run into issues. The 1" factory lift helped 2022 Ram Big Horn Back...

    RUMORS: Ram 1500 Will Come With Two Distinctive Looks

    I know. Full size ev pricing is just ridiculous. That's why I would downgrade to a midsized. 2022 Ram Big Horn Back Country 2016 Dodge Charger scat pack 2021 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited Sahara

    RUMORS: Ram 1500 Will Come With Two Distinctive Looks

    Well personally for me, it's the ram EV or the Toyota tacoma ev when it comes out in 2025. I'm not gonna pay crazy prices on the full size ev trucks like that. I'm fine with going to the midsized segment. If ford stayed with the original pricing they had when it came out, that's what I'm...

    RUMORS: Ram 1500 Will Come With Two Distinctive Looks

    I'm holding out for the EV ram. As much as I LOVE my Hemi, I'm not fond of any turbocharged engine and I would just jump right to the EV. I just hope they don't bend me over with pricing. 2022 Ram Big Horn Back Country 2016 Dodge Charger scat pack 2021 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited Sahara

    RUMORS: Ram 1500 Will Come With Two Distinctive Looks

    I'm suprised. At least standard digital dash screen. Kinda make people not want a ice vehicle. I mean the 3.0 turbo is interesting enough...but got to change something for people to buy it. 2022 Ram Big Horn Back Country 2016 Dodge Charger scat pack 2021 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited Sahara
