    Trailer hitch cover

    Why not just use an actual hitch? If someone rear ended me, it's more damage to their auto lol!

    Horrific Gas Mileage Hemi eTorque

    I meant to say "city" driving LOL... in any case, the MPG and power is less than my '13 F150 V6 Ecoboost (that had a tune and upgrades), but my truck isn't broken in yet. While a smidge disappointed in outright power and MPG, the luxury amenities (and safety features) and smooth power delivery...

    Horrific Gas Mileage Hemi eTorque

    I have ~1100 miles on my '19 Limited 4x4 w/ 3.92, no bed cover, 5.7L non-e-torque. I drive pretty conservatively, mostly CITY miles, and fill w/ 91 oct. OEM 22" rims w/ OEM all season tires (not off road). Car computer says ~12.2 to 12.4 avg MPG. Yikes!

    33 x 12.5 R22 ridge grapplers installed on Stock 22” limited wheels

    I ran a '13 Ford F150 FX4 w/ 17" rims and Goodyear Duratrac's year round on it here in Seattle; went snowboarding a couple of times. I would say, if you get a lot of snow and have to potentially drive in un-plowed roads, I would get dedicated winter tires. Paved slushy roads where it's below...

    New purchase!

    I always love white trucks/cars w/ black (or gunmetal) rims--very sharp!

    Very nice! What foam gun and soap did you use? Looks good and foamy!

    Harman Kardon vs Alpine vs Beats

    I don't have much experience w/ other RAM sound systems other than what is in my Limited w/ the 19 speaker system; sounds 'good enough' for listening to low quality stuff (FM HD radio, satellite radio). Funny, in my old '13 F150 I ended up replacing the OEM upgraded Sony 6x9 with some...

    DIY Oil Change Shopping list for the 5.7

    Can anyone confirm that this Mobil 1 filter (that's for the '18 5.7L hemi) does fit our '19 5.7L? Mobil 1 M1-113A Extended Performance Oil Filter

    ? Mechanical differences between 4th and 5th Gen Ram 1500?

    Hi, relatively new owner here (< 2 wks) of a Silver Ram 1500 Limited 4x4 short bed, and I have to say, so far this truck has not disappointed me. I went from a modded out and mildly lifted '13 F150 FX4 Screw ecoboost (King off road coilovers, FMIC, Air raid intake, custom 5 star tune) that...

    Rust protection and ceramic coating, is it worth it?

    I have to mirror the good advice that's already been given; no need to spend a lot of $ buying "ceramic coating"--it's a truck afterall! I have used CQuartz UK on some of my other cars--and it's debatable how good it works--I certainly didn't notice dirt and grime "not sticking"; here in the...

    2019 RAM 1500 hellwig swaybar

    What p/n for that rear Hellwig sway bar? I also wondered why Hellwig didn't make a front sway bar for RAM, and here's what I found out via their FAQ: " Why doesn’t Hellwig manufacture aftermarket Dodge pickup front sway bars? We often get customers asking why our truck sway bar line has front...

    Mopar Ram airflow kit

    Insanely overpriced (it's now at $526 MSRP). Having always replaced my filters w/ K&N, AirRaid, AEM, etc..., I've not noticed much, if any, improvement. Would only possibly replace the OEM filter w/ a higher quality filter when it's due to be switched...

    Mud Flaps

    Thanks! Yeah, this Samsung S9 phone takes insane pics... Forgot to mention, that these mudflaps do possibly require drilling 1 hole per flap through the existing OEM plastic wheel well cover, to attach the farthest inner edge of the Gatorback. I say 'possibly' since the mudflap is very firmly...

    Mud Flaps

    I just installed some Gatorback black gunmetal mudflaps onto my '19 Limited. Super easy install (much easier than on my F150 previously owned). The metal badge portion is a bit shiny (it's not matte), but it'll get dusty in no time and won't remain shiny unless I cleaned it regularly. These...
