    What Fuel is everyone using?

    That could be true, but older gas stations that have been running since the early 90's without pump/gas tank replacement very well could be mixing 87 & 93 fuel to make 89 octane at the delivery tanker.

    Price negotiated from MSRP

    Considering GM & FCA are neck & neck in sales numbers right now, I could see the June rebates showing up in August. If not August definitely by Sept/Oct. Getting a decent deal also depends if your particular dealer is looking to move the 2019's off the lot.

    Difficulty Starting after Fueling

    My dad had a Ford Contour and it would do the same exact thing. It ended up beign a bad fuel pump. The fuel pump was on top of the fuel tank.

    In the owners guide, it says 89 octane is recommended but 87 octane is acceptable. It doesn't tell you why 89 is recommended. ex: for max performance, better fuel economy etc.

    A/C performance during this heat wave

    A couple days ago, I took my 2013 Ford Mustang GT to work. The Ambient temp was around 92 degrees. It has an all black leather interior that gets hot as hell. In fact, I ended up tinting all the windows with the exception of the windshield. It still gets hot in there but not as crazy hot as...

    A/C performance during this heat wave

    Ironically, I can't auto start my truck today. On the way in to work, my low fuel light came on and I didn't have the time to stop at the Gas Station. My truck is a real Drama Queen when it comes to the low fuel light. The needle on the fuel gauge isn't even touching the 1/4 mark when it comes...

    A/C performance during this heat wave

    You'll need to download the App from the play store App on your smart phone and install it. Once you do that, you need to register your information. It's all pretty self explanatory. You can also go to www.mopar.com to register. From both the App on your phone and from Mopar's web site, you can...

    A/C performance during this heat wave

    I don't feel the need to go out and buy a thermometer to measure the temps coming out the vents. To me (And my passengers) it's more about how we feel.

    A/C performance during this heat wave

    I don't believe the drop in MPG is that dramatic. It really depends on weather you can make the MPG loss up by driving for a while at highway speeds. That being said, that's the price you pay if you want a comfortable cabin. I also auto start my vehicles when it's below freezing.

    Yes, that's what I meant.

    A/C performance during this heat wave

    Well, the results are in on my Ram with the things I started doing today to combat ineffective A/C. They DEFINITELY helped! The truck sat in the sun with a high outside temp of 97 degrees. I parked the truck at work and put up the sunshade at 4am- about 2 1/2 hours before sunrise. At 3:53 pm, I...

    Most of them say "For Optimal Performance". Meaning you may get a couple extra horsepower & slightly better MPG.

    Is there a way I can correct my speed adter switching to 22's?

    I would think that after your speed odometer is re-calibrated for 22' wheels, it shouldn't be a issue since Ram offers a 22' Rim & Tire option. The trucks calculated MPG would be fairly accurate, since the MPG computer & Speedometer work together. As a last resort, you probably could have the...

    A/C performance during this heat wave

    For all it's worth, my work truck is a beater 2012 Silveraldo base cab with 170K on the odometer and it'll blast me out of there even though the truck mostly idle's and never go's over 30 mph, even on a day like today. Just about everything else has took a crap on it but the HVAC system just...

    Price negotiated from MSRP

    As soon as the attitude started, I would have walked. There's plenty of other dealers out there that will treat you better.

    That's too bad. Let him try to scam the next person who deals with him.

    Quite possibly. Some dealers will use this as a excuse to deny warranty claims.
