    87 Octane

    As everyone else has stated, 87 (or 85 for higher altitude) is still fine. I've run multiple tests with all octanes and all the results are the same. Same mpg. If there is a slight power decrease, I don't feel it. However, you will notice the knocking/pinging if towing heavy loads on 87. With...

    Foam cannon results

    Once all this wonderful Florida rain stops, I'll take some pics!

    Foam cannon results

    This is another known issue though also. Hard water affects the foaming capabilities due to the minerals in the water. It's suggested to fill up your foam cannon with distilled water for better foaming results. Can confirm that helps as well. Also keeps your foam cannon clean and prevent mineral...

    Foam cannon results

    So I can confirm it was in fact a faulty cannon. New one came in today, loaded it up with the same soap, same mixture ratio, big difference. Finally have real foam. Picked up this cannon since it has a nice wide base. https://www.amazon.com/TriNova-Cannon-Gallon-Detailing-Trucks/dp/B072JNQQY9

    Foam cannon results

    50/50 mixture is quite a bit. I'm not using an entire 16oz bottle of soap everytime I wash my truck. Most videos I see (Chemical Guys included) only use about 2 or 3oz and get super thick foam. I guess I'll see tomorrow when the new cannon arrives. Hopefully I just had a faulty cannon (even...

    Foam cannon results

    Yeah I don't use the built in soap dispenser on the pressure washer. I have a 32oz foam cannon from MATCC that I use. Even bought the 1.1mm orifice for it like others suggested. I just ordered another foam cannon that will be here Friday so I can test and see if I just got a faulty cannon. I...

    Foam cannon results

    I guess I'll replace the foam cannon and see if that makes a difference. It was the MATCC foam cannon that I saw recommended everywhere. What's your soap to water mixture ratio? I usually use about 2oz in the 32oz foam cannon bottle.

    Foam cannon results

    I generally wash my truck once every 2 weeks and I have had no luck getting a nice thick foam out of my foam cannon. I have a sun joe pressure washer that does 2000 PSI AT 1.76GPM. I've tried all different soaps, including multiple chemical guys formulas. Always with warm water. I've even...

    Hellwig Sway Bar on a Rebel

    I love the rear view video. I don't pay attention to the HUD that much while driving to be honest. I wish the height setting allowed it to go higher though. Polarized glasses definitely affect it, especially the very reflective colored ones.

    Hellwig Sway Bar on a Rebel

    Nope, none at all. If anything, I can see the HUD 10x better with the tint than before.

    Hellwig Sway Bar on a Rebel

    Haven't looked into anything for the front at all. Probably won't mess with it

    Hellwig Sway Bar on a Rebel

    Yeah the stock one is a hollow bar vs the solid hellwig. I noticed a big difference mainly because I'm lifted on 35s so going from the stock bar to the stiffest setting on hellwig was night and day. Curves I took at 30, I can now take at 50 with confidence lol As for disconnecting the sway bar...

    Borla Atak vs S-Type vs Touring - Show of Hands!

    Ended up having to cut mine in half during install. Put up online at various marketplaces thinking someone might need or want the oem exhaust but after 2 months it wasn't worth the storage so I scrapped it. Think I got 10$ for it lol

    TAZER DT for 2019 RAM 1500

    I changed mine to the turn signals for DRL and I love the way it looks. I also turned off the halos cuz it looked kinda dumb. The halos still come on when you switch the headlights on though, just not on with the DRLs.

    Borla Atak vs S-Type vs Touring - Show of Hands!

    Agreed. Not loud in the cabin and no drone at any speed. I too wish it was louder though. I keep the rear middle window down just to hear it more lol

    BDS 4" vs. Rough Country 5" for 2020 Air Suspension

    I don't use lane assist or park assist so I can't speak to those. But I've had no issues with ACC or blind spot detection. Everything still works as intended.

    Hellwig Sway Bar on a Rebel

    Super easy to put on, should only take about 10 minutes. There are a ton of short YouTube videos that show how. Two suggestions: 1. Don't use the supplied grease. Plenty of reviews say it washes out pretty easy and the bar starts squeaking. Get some good synthetic grease like mobile red or...

    Hellwig Sway Bar on a Rebel

    Ceramic window tint has a better heat rejection than normal tint films. Slightly more expensive but well worth the cost in sunny states like Florida. The 50% is the shade darkness percentage. The lower the number, the darker the tint. I only did 50% on the entire front windshield so it isn't too...

    Hellwig Sway Bar on a Rebel

    The swaybar will adjust to the different air ride levels as you raise or lower the truck. The end links won't move, the swaybar will just rotate upwards as you lift or downwards as you lower. The adjustable end links are just for when you permanently raise the truck through a body or suspension...

    Borla Atak vs S-Type vs Touring - Show of Hands!

    I'm not sure. All I know is there's a whine that seems to come from the rear only during WOT. It wasn't there before the exhaust. And I've heard it once before while riding in someone else's ram with the Atak. Thought I just had some sort of exhaust leak so got the truck up on a lift and made...
