    Back in 1974, when Towne was only a Lincoln Mercury dealership on Orchard Park Road (next to Leisure Rinks), my wife and I ordered from them a Mercury Cougar XR7 with a 351 Cobra Jet engine. That was the first year the Cougar moved from a pony car to an immediate size. We already had a 1967...

    Welcome from a fellow Buffalonian. Truck looks very nice and, I agree, Granite Crystal Metallic is a great color. I ordered my Ram through West-Herr. What dealership did you used to purchase your Ram?

    New Truck Day

    "Runs with beer" is like "runs with scissors." Both can cause disastrous results! :D

    Ordered my TRX today!

    Should be a great truck. I had to wait 3 months back in July, 2018 for my Laramie. Seemed like forever. Hopefully, you get your TRX sooner rather than later.

    Amazing leather work quality

    MJP. I think he meant to post a picture of the replacement lid. He probably wants to show his dealership that a replacement can be better than the one he received.

    2019 ram 1500 ram DT sport hood working air vent

    Bought the Jeep first in 2014. Wife wanted three seats for the grandkids. I said can't buy a Durango because they do not make an SRT model. Lo and behold, in 2018 Dodge came out with a Durango SRT, So, vol-la!

    2019 ram 1500 ram DT sport hood working air vent

    On both my Jeep Grand Cherokee SRT and my Dodge Durango SRT, the hood vents are open into the engine compartment and extract heat. Of course, because they are SRT models, they use the 6.4 V8 engine. Ram could very easily have made the hood vents functional.

    Driving without exhaust tips?

    What if you wrapped some household aluminum foil over the bumper cover to act like a heat shield.

    Sunroof Rear Drain Grommets

    I have a 2019 Laramie. Both of the rear grommets have a black tube running through them but neither grommet was in place. I removed the carpeted panel behind the rear seats, reseated the grommets with about 1/4" to 1/2" of the black tubing revealed on the outside and sealed the grommets and...

    Weird Electronic Issue

    My bed lights were part of the BUG option on my Ram and, so, were factory installed and I don't have any problems. However, some member on this forum posted that there is incorrect information on the instruction sheet when trying to install the Mopar bed light accessory. I believe it has to do...

    I believe the chrome belt moldings are the moldings around the side windows.

    New from NY

    Thanks for your reply. I'm a graduate of UB also. I've been to Albany and to NYC but I do not recall being in Hyde Park or Poughkeepsie. Perhaps I need to be like Trump and take a cognitive test. :unsure:

    Hi from Sweden

    Very nice Roadrunner. In 1970, I purchased a new Challenger 340 with factory air conditioning. It was my first vehicle with A/C. B5 blue (bright blue metallic, my favorite color), black vinyl roof, bright blue metallic interior. Absolutely a great car. Loved the performance hood and quad...

    Hopefully you meant to say "cruising" (not, cursing) as you seem to like your Tradesman.
