    We are back!

    Just what I heard - think it applies when identity is in question though. No matter - I can't get past the phone # verification part. Says number won't verify - even though I've had the same number for 20+ years (and is my 2FA, along with Duo and Authenticator) for dozens of things in my IT...

    Will there be a DT Regular Cab?

    5% of the market might even be a stretch. Cool look for a "sport truck" though. Work trucks are going to want a back seat area to throw/secure valuables or helpers. Daily drivers (like myself) a place to stick your dog or groceries. Pretty much EVERYONE is going to want a back seat area...

    Consumer Reports' Reliability rating for Ram 1500 - doesn't make sense

    Yeah - Consumer Reports. I love my Ram - but honestly - it's a little more than I needed, and really prefer and SUV. I get the usual rattles on the bed - kind of expect them carting an empty metal bucket around. I'm hanging onto it for now - waiting to see what the Grand Wagoneer looks like...

    2021 1500 limited with etorque will not turn on.

    ^^^^^^ This... Not how you want to start your morning. Had it happen once. Put it on a fast charger (DISCONNECT BATTERY FIRST) - brought it to the dealer. They gave me a loaner for the day (rather than have my angry butt skulking around the dealership all day) while they ran "battery...

    We are back!

    I can't get parler to set me up. Tells me invalid phone number. I'm somewhat leery of the amount of personal info they appear to ask for (drivers license, etc). ALL of these internet companies start out small - and the goal is to get big enough to cash out - or go public and cash in. Not...

    We are back!

    Thanks for getting this running again. Being in FB jail for another 19 days (I was one of the conservatives that got Zuc'd pre-election) - I was running out of cool places to hang out... Rick

    2021 RAM LIMITED or 2021 F150 PLATINUM or LIMITED?

    Funny - the Titan was the ONLY TRUCK I didn't even bother test driving. I found to to be SO UNIMPRESSIVE, I just didn't bother. I was interested in the XD - but again. I looked at it, sat in it - and FELT NOTHING. Rick

    2021 RAM LIMITED or 2021 F150 PLATINUM or LIMITED?

    Totally missed that you were thinking of going from a 19 to a 21. Thought you were just thinking of jumping ship to an F-150. Since you already have a loaded Limited - I really don't think there's enough differences in the Ram 21, to justify the dump (even with the fact that used Rams seem to...

    2021 RAM LIMITED or 2021 F150 PLATINUM or LIMITED?

    F-150 Platinum came in a VERY CLOSE SECOND. I think Platinum has some more interesting options than the Limited (including the diesel, which I honestly thought was a gasser when I test drove one). For me - Multi-Function Tailgate & 12" Display. Looking at the new model - they're pretty much a...

    Intermittent Key Fob Issue?

    This issue usually crops up when attempting to hit the starter button when inside the truck. It's weird - I jiggle the fob in my pocket and it works. I also carry a pretty large pocket knife, clipped in that pocket - so there's that. But the "LED High Mounted Stoplight issue" - happens (if...

    Sudden transmission drop out of Drive with flashing light above D on the shift know

    Funny (ok - not funny). Had the same thing happen to me today. Well, similar. In D rolling - stop for a stop sign - go to move and starts to move - then flashes D. Pulled over, put it in park - back in D - good to go for the rest of the journey. WEIRD... Rick

    22" Limited - Running Premier LTX 114 Load - Versus Defender LTX 110 Load

    I wore the Goodyear Eagle Touring (OEM) 285/45R22 114H XL 500 Treadwear off the truck in 13K miles (rotated properly) - 500 treadwear - I really didn't expect much from them. OEM tires are like the toner cartridge that comes with a new laser printer - not meant to last all that long. Previous...

    Replacing 18" "Temporary Tire" Spare with Regular Tire - Will It Go Under The Truck?

    So I got a sidewall puncture on one of my tires Sunday - spent a lovely 2.5 hours in monsoon rainstorm waiting on AAA to come change it out (better HIM than ME). '19 Limited with 22's - NOT running the Goodyear Grand Tourings (shredded them off in 13K miles) - running Michelin Premier LTX...

    The New chevy is growing on me ...(just sayin)

    Since this is an old/resurrected thread... I drove literally everything out there. F-150 Platinum Diesel - close 2nd - nice ride, could barely tell it wasn't a gasser. But I drove a Ram Limited (as one of my first test drives) - and everything else I drove fell short in one way or another...

    Hummer

    Insane. Friends think I'm nuts for dropping the $$ on a $67K stickered Pickup. NOT HAPPENING. I'm disappointed that FCA is going to do a $100K Grand Wagoneer - instead of something more reasonable under the Dodge or Ram label. $100K Jeep? In yer DREAMS. Rick

    2021 rebel multi function tailgate issues?

    More likely - available (or not) - due to how they run the production line/scheduling. They're not going to stop the line, change over the paint booth, to accommodate one Hydro Blue. These are typically done in "batches", with a "preferred configuration" - so "black appearance" is normally...

    Sadness When Selling an Old Car

    Usually - by the time I'm ready to get rid of a car - I'm already "emotionally divorced" from it, either because it's become a "problem child" or I just talk myself out of being in love with it so I can part with it. A couple hold a "special place" in my heart though. My 1980 VW Poptop Camper...
