    Did I buy the wrong truck?

    Honestly, If you are already regretting it, then make the move. If you can do it for only $2k to get the truck you want, that seems like a no brainer to me. Not a ton of money to get you what you really want. No need for an e torque vs no e torque debate here, if you don't want it you will never...

    Tailgate Issues?

    Had my truck back twice already and each time they say it's fixed but it still does it. I don't have enough days off from work to spend 4hrs there each week waiting for them to fix the issue that they caused. The last time they looked at it they gave it back to me without even tightening the...

    Tailgate Issues?

    My tailgate was working perfectly even with my tight fitting cover until my last service visit to my local dealer. The camera was acting funny so they took it apart to test it and when they put the tailgate back together now it takes 2 or 3 times touching the pad to actually unlatch the stupid...

    Loud blowing noise from passenger side vents

    I've noticed that since I moved to florida and the average speed on the highway is about 95mph it is happening more often. I used to never really go above 70, now that I'm regularly cruising at 80+ it's been happening more. I'm assuming the blend door is being forced open by outside air. It's...

    Weep holes in resonators? Please explain.

    Wow, I hadn't realized there were holes in the resonators. I like the sound since I did the muffler delete, but I'm going to do this and see how it comes out. I thought the "puffy" sound was just a characteristic of the hemi

    Does the Hemi have issues? ie “tick”

    I wouldn't spend too much time on the forums, you'll end up driving yourself crazy. All of the major truck brands from the U.S. and even nissan and toyota all make a good quality product will last 150k + miles. It should really come down to which truck looks, drives, and feels the best to YOU...

    Does the Hemi have issues? ie “tick”

    I'll take a (very) slightly slower 0-60 time in exchange for that sweet V8 sound every single time. The Fords (except for the 5.0) all sound like honda's and are even worse if you try to modify the exhaust. V8 > V6 no matter what the brand is IMO.

    Diesel or Hemi ?

    ^^^^ This^^^^ You can't compare diesel prices to premium, compare it to 87. I've been running both of my Hemi Rams on 87 since 2016 and get great mileage and have had no issues. 87 is cheaper than diesel just about everywhere. That changes the equation quite a bit. I average 17/tank and over...

    Diesel or Hemi ?

    Just by doing the math it would take 5-6 years at 15k a year just to break even on the diesel. Not to mention the extra hassle with finding a station with diesel and that someone isn't blocking the 1 pump every time. Also, the ecodiesel is not the most reliable engine, especially when compared...

    Vibration @ 57-60mph

    mine just started doing this, but I have almost 25k miles now and I'm assuming it's tires being worn or unbalanced. I would have them start there, see if they will check the tire balance and alignment for you at the dealer.

    Pistol Safe for front bench seat of 2019 Big Horn

    I'm looking for one as well. I'm not concerned about theft, I'm concerned about my 3yr old. I want to make sure it's locked away securely. Any idea if the underseat safe for the DS will fit our DT? I may buy one just to roll the dice and see. I will loose access to my CD player, but oh well.

    Backup cam blue screen of death

    Same issue here, just dropped it off this morning, bu unless they can dupliate it I'm sol on getting anything done. this is my second camera, first one wasn't broken but they replaced it to rule out any interference with my radio. Since then, black screen maybe once a week.

    Well, I traded in my 1500 today

    really nice truck you've got there. I agree that the 4th gen body looks just fine with the new front end and interior. If I needed an HD I would have done the same. Best of luck with the new truck.

    Help me pick a new vehicle for my wife please!

    Thanks, She loves it so that's good enough for me, plus it's gorgeous inside. Since she will never ever take it off road or put the pedal to the floor then an R/T durango or a Trailhawk GC made little sense, those were just for me really. Thanks for all the input everyone.

    Help me pick a new vehicle for my wife please!

    So, we went a completely different direction. She wanted a larger vehicle and a usable 3rd row so we went with a Buick Enclave. It's not an off roader for sure, but extremely comfortable and a bargain compared to what we were considering. We had a deal on a new durango and they kept jerking us...

    What point do you call your truck a lemon?

    every state is different. In CT, 4 times in service for the same issue is enough. If it's an obvious safety issue they will be forced to buy back, if it's not a safety issue they will settle. I just settled with FCA over the bluetooth issue in my truck. I had a subaru forester with a defect in...

    Vented Seats Inconsistent

    Same with mine, very rarely are mine ever actually cold, they just feel like a fan most of the time instead of actual cold air. kinda the same with the A/C in the truck as well. This heat wave hasn't been fun so far.

    Rebel vs. Off Road Package vs. DIY

    I would have loved a rebel probably just as much as my laramie. I went with the Laramie for the price. I wanted V8 and ventilated seats and this was the cheapest way to get them. I'm not going to do any serious off roading but do plan to do a level lift and slightly larger tires when these need...

    So I just got back from a road trip

    Oh cry me a river Karen. Quit complaining about everyone complaining about everyone complaining and just move on already. I was calling out all the babies like you on here complaining about MPG. Calling people out does not = bitching. It's the exact opposite of that. Just because you can't...

    So I just got back from a road trip

    So I write a post telling you to stop bitching and your response is to tell me to stop bitching? We got a smart one over here.... or you could have actually thought about the content contained in said post and used your brain, but no, just ignore the facts and disregard logic, sounds about right.
