If the spare ISN'T GOING TO WORK due to upgraded tire size - then keeping it onboard serves no real purpose. As others have said - if 70lbs of spare is going to make/break your payload limits - than a bigger truck just might be in order. But again - if it isn't going to serve a purpose - lose...

I've been running RainX Latitudes for years. Might have to try the Bosch ones, since everyone seems to rave over them. Rick

This is one of those "if you're actually going to use them" kind of thing (for me at least). For people who use these as "working trucks" - the ability to grab frequently used tools, etc., along with an inverter outlet to charge batteries is a very cool thing. I have no use for them - so I...

I wouldn't get too worried - if everyone that has had ZERO ISSUES posted that they had ZERO ISSUES - you wouldn't be able to find the "I'm having this (or that) problem" posts. And (aside from stuff like CEL's) - a lot of this stuff is subjective. example: People complain about the A/C in...

Can't speak for others - but I remove my PC and Tazer before brining it in for service. First thing the service writer does is hook a tablet to it to read the ECU. Never want any questions or "wiggle room" for FCA to claim mods are the reason for a warranty claim. Takes 30 seconds to remove...

Typo - corrected... Thanks for the heads up - would hate to be misleading someone.

I get that - but if you have a MILEAGE LIMITED POLICY - it's only good to that mileage. As I commented earlier - 125K mile is only good for 4 years for me. As soon as I get close to 100 - I trade. Because your trade-in value takes a dive after 100K miles. For folks that drive the (average)...

I went for the 7/unlimited myself - because I typically run up 100K in 4 years - and I might want to actually keep this one a little longer. I WILL NOT OWN a car with 20 computers - without a factory warranty to cover it. In the case of my 2 previous Hondas - I never had to use them (OK - CV...

Also - for FLORIDA BUYERS - VERY VERY VERY IMPORTANT (like $1,000 worth of important). Florida's DIVISION OF INSURANCE took over the regulation of "extended warranties" a number of years ago - due to the number of SCAM EXTENDED WARRANTIES going on down here (the land of the phone room...

I love how these arguments rage on - akin to the "what kind of oil should I use?" (followed by lab results from oil that no one understands). I todays computerized fuel/ignition systems - the computer will compensate for the entire range of octanes (and even go into "limp mode" for a bad batch...

I did the FCA 7yr/Unlimited. WAY TOO MANY COMPUTERS in this thing to not have one. I like the manufacturers warranties. Even if it means bringing it to a dealer (that has better access to tech support, diagnostic tools and PARTS anyways). And I usually TRADE when the extended is almost gone...

I hear ya. I'm an "early adopter" - seems I always get the first model year of a new gen (when I probably should wait for year two). Never know what these manufacturers are gonna decide. I got the 2016 Honda Pilot (first year of Gen3) - no CarPlay. They come out with it in '17 - and pissed...

I use the Hera front grip on a number of my builds. The stock tends to reinforce the buffer tube assembly, and is quite ergonomic. Not a big fan of the direct impingement gas system myself. One of the (many) reasons I really like my SCAR-17, Sig MPX (9mm) and MCX (300blackout),M-14's, and...

^^^^ THIS!!! I came out of a '16 Honda Pilot Touring - where "Lane Sense" was almost as good as Tesla's "auto pilot". That car could steer you through curves and stay centered in the lane. So I had "high expectations" for a newer version of this tech. It is VIRTUALLY USELESS and more of an...

This is for trailer backing novices I suppose - that can't get the concept that the trailer turns in the opposite direction of the wheel when backing. Tons of people when I went to truck driving school (including myself in the beginning) had issues with timing and orientation backing trailers...

I use the Fuelly app to track my gas mileage and expenses. Also has a place to log service(s) including taking photos of receipts to prove supplies were purchased. Rick

A little more to it than that - but yeah - you need a new box to swap out. But simply taking it off (for whatever reason) is do-able. All tailgates (99%) in all pickups are removable. Level of difficulty varies from truck to truck. Rick

takes off just like a regular tailgate - and DO GET A TAILGATE LOCK TO SECURE IT - because these are likely to be a high theft item in the future. https://www.amazon.com/Master-Lock-Tailgate-Stainless-8253DAT/dp/B007OSL3DY/ref=sr_1_2?dchild=1&keywords=master+tailgate+lock&qid=1600623391&sr=8-2...

And interestly - cannot find it in Mopars parts fiche. There are a number of parts, even guys in the parts departments can't find numbers for. Rick

Hopefully Limited38 will come back and respond - but from his comments above - it appears he had to make some modifications to the MFT step and where it mounts - to accommodate the corner step. Rick
