Please provide a source because it sounds like you're pulling crap out your rear-end. Is it right? No. Is it illegal? Doubt it. Dealers sell damaged-in-transit cars as new all the time without any disclosure.

I have been using Sunny's test build for months and love it. I disagree with the idea that laneless is the best - I keep it on auto most of the time. I only force laneless when on roads with poor lane markings, or if using in inclement weather that is reducing vis/covering the lines. If the road...

Interesting. I'd be a bit more worried about build-up inside the pipe & SCR, which I don't think you'll be able to clean out easily, so for me, I'll just keep running Platinum and hope it works as advertised.

You should run Platinum DEF for the next 30K and see if it makes any difference. How easy/difficult is it to remove the injector? Haven't seen anyone talk about doing it.

The intercooler is in the always-open grille below where the cover sits. I don't run a cover and it's certainly not needed. Yes, you'll retain heat and get better MPG. The active shutters do help, but they are not as effective as an actual cover. But these covers will tear the crap out of your...

Mine is mostly working fine, but I've had a few weird things happen while running it. TurnCam has come on a couple times while driving even though it's disabled, and I had to reboot the screen to make it go away. My cruise control has spontaneously cancelled, and interior ambient lights turned...

The trip meter does not retain MPG data - it too is a rolling average. If you want long-term MPG data, and ACCURATE data, use Fuelly to manually track your fill-ups.

The MPG calculator is, deceivingly, not a lifetime average. It is a rolling average over the last 500 miles or so.

This is stupid and dangerous. Maybe don't buy a new truck if you can't afford the fuel.

I'm not playing "what if" with every situation relating to the step. I'm merely saying it's a pretty safe bet the OEM step was actually tested and built within a specification to be safe and reliable considering it's a hell of a lot easier to sue the manufacturer if it breaks and causes injury...

I don't think you even need to go that deep. Stepping up and it breaking would suck, but I'd be really worried about stepping down from the bed and it breaking unexpectedly - broken bones maybe, but if you bash your head on the way down, could be bad. I'm up north so more of a concern for me...

Thanks! This is exacy what I wanted to see. Just ordered the Mopar one and should have done that to begin with. I'm all for saving a buck when it makes sense, but something that could literally kill you if it breaks (step failing with you on it) ain't the place to do it.

That might be a bit of a stretch. I'm sure it'll eventually rust, just like the truck will. But if it'll take years instead of weeks for that to happen, I'll gladly pay for the Mopar step. Just wanted to see what other people with it had to say.

Can someone with a Mopar OEM step verify if theirs is showing any signs of rust on the hardware? My eBay clone is only 3 weeks old and I'm wondering if it's going to turn to crap real fast, or if it's just some surface rust that isn't much to worry about.

What are you basing this information on? Because I have heard from someone else in the 3rd gen EcoD group that the 3rd gen engines DO have a real sensor, but the prior gen didn't. Would like to know which is accurate, but so far nobody has proven anything.

Stop using Rotella - it's not supposed to be used in these engines. Stellantis even put out a bulletin telling dealers to stop putting it in vehicles. Your service department is apparently a bunch of ignoramuses.

I don't think anything on these trucks is plug & play - almost certainly requires alfaOBD settings to be changed at the least.

At this point, probably not. If you had actally asked them the next day, it's usually possible for them to re-do the paperwork in that short of a timespan, but some dealers might not unless you have a good relationship with them as they are clearly not supposed to operate that way.

Went for another drive and it still ran like crap. And I started to notice something weird - even after disabling brake hold, my truck was holding the brakes for about 2 seconds every time I took my foot off. Well I about went into panic mode thinking this version f’d up my truck. Started...

I know the Tazer doesn’t directly interact with the trans, but resetting the adaptives clearly sent my trans back into a learning mode, and after 8 miles of city driving it still isn’t operating how it was. Hopefully it just needs a little more time to adjust, because right now it’s maddening...
