They're not trying so hard to make a sale anymore because they don't have to. With the shortage of supply, they can be lazy and still make sales. As for the mpg hit. Empty, the 3.21 will do better around town. Loaded, I suspect the 3.92 may do a little better around town. Freeway, the...

If it does, just have the dealer install Katskinz as part of the order. You can put them on any trim when you buy it. Or you could put any branded seat covers on after purchase, (cloth, leather and even neoprene). Seat material is easy to change.

Well, you hear that a lot, but it's not always the case. I do get that to a point, which is one of the reasons I'd like the new Tradesman too. That said, I wouldn't automatically assume a used vehicle was a problem for anyone. Run a Carfax to check service records, not just for crash...

Me personally, I like the extras but that's personal preference. If you don't drive a lot, mileage shouldn't be an issue, but if you drive a lot, that 12,500 mile head start may take you out of warranty pretty quick. If you're keeping it long term, I don't think resale value is much of a...

Well the things I see. First is the tires. Over pressured is not helping at all. I typically run around 40-45 psi. 55-60 is killing you. The Ram obviously has a higher center of gravity than the Subaru. That higher COG is "tipping" the truck whether it's enough to see/feel or not. When...

They may (and probably do) have the parameters set differently than the others. Or maybe the GM's were going faster, breaking harder, have softer suspensions with more body roll, locked a wheel the others didn't, etc. There's a lot of variables that are considered, not just the angle. I'm not...

Off camber turns are a very good way to tell the system you're in trouble and cause the airbags to deploy. This isn't exclusive to GM products, so be careful. And yes, airbag deployment will frequently total a vehicle because they're extremely expensive to replace. Well, professionally anyway...

Actually you can deploy them with no impact at all. There's a video somewhere of a guy doing donuts in a parking lot. He switches from one direction to the next and you hear the bags deploy. As he stops, you can see they clearly fired off the side airbags, and there was no hit at all, much...

Those wire taps are freaking genius. I just found out they exist about a year or so ago. I've been using standard T taps but that's only because I have them. When they run out, I'm ordering posi taps. They look a lot easier to work with, especially in tight places like tapping into wires for...

It took an extra couple feet of wire to tap in, but I tapped into the marker light wire on the hitch wiring. Easy to access and easily identifiable. Much easier than tapping in at a headlight, which I've done before, and you have very little wire to work with (once you find the right one)...

Ha ha, yeah that'll do it!!!

No photos of them together yet, but talk about a wheel base difference. Trailer behind the Jeep, is easy. Trailer behind the truck is an exercise in patience and finesse.

That's the same way mine looks. The tall tailgate helps but it still sucks to back up. I bought the trailer for my Jeep. I can tow it with the Wrangler, and it's a lot more proportional. That makes reversing much easier. I can easily back down a S-curve driveway with no issues. I tried...

Bone stock it may be close. You'll probably be fine driving down the road, but articulating the suspension (especially if you're turning at the time) may result in some contact. FWIW, I have that size on my truck, but I've got a leveling kit. I've got a pretty good amount of clearance but I'm...

Because some times that's not an option. Or maybe it's cheaper to buy it with the chrome and swap out parts later. Or maybe there's some other reason to do it. It may be all there is. As joemo said, that was the option that was available. I may be cheaper. When I bought my '07 and swapped...

Well I don't know about proclip specifically, but if you're looking for a simple mount to use with the Course ball, I did exactly that. I bought the cheaper Course mount that had the magnetic plate. Then instead of using the magnet, I attached a Vanmass holder that I got off Amazon for $20...

Get in on that class action suit.

The grille was swapped for an OEM paintable one (came primer gray). The bumpers were bead blasted to remove the chrome then painted with matched paint (I think that year used PXR for brilliant black pearl). The emblems and fuel door were bead blasted just enough to give them some texture for...

All is not lost. I had a 2007 that got puked on by the chrome machine. I slowly modify it until it look a lot less like an old man's truck. I got a smoking deal on it, which is why I bought it (long story). In the end I had swapped out (or painted) all the chrome, changed the wheels from...

I think you're probably right about the search feature on Nav but I'm not positive. You can still you voice commands to select a destination, but you may have to be more specific than "find mcdonalds" or something like that. Then again maybe not, because the dash mounted navigator (Garmin) in...
