    Tire Recommendations for New Owner

    IDK about the falkens but when I replaced mine, the discount tire sales person said that none of the tires reach the guarenteed mileage despite whats listed. Most people dont realize this and just buy new tires not realizing they can get a credit for the amount of mileage you didnt get, thats...

    Ive been watching my 2020 the last few days because its been so cold, mine slowly heats up as well. With 24° ambient temps, it takes about 8 miles for the trans to get to 140°, distance from my house to the gym

    Leather dash lifting and bubbling

    I walked in to the service department and simply asked. I told them that I'd read that Ram was good willing the leather Limited/Longhorn/TRX dashes. He wrote it up, entered data in the system and came up with my copay, 10 min. They saw my attempts at repair on the old dash as well and said nothing

    What did you do to your Ram today???

    A large 33 gallon trash bag split down the sides will work also, that's what I used prior

    What did you do to your Ram today???

    100%. My windshield was covered thursday morning. While everyone else was warming up and scraping, I started the truck and had the cover pulled off before the idle came down from a cold start. I hate waiting on the defroster or scraping windshields

    What did you do to your Ram today???

    Not a big deal, I've learned something that I knew nothing about 36 hours ago. If it happens to anyone else, now they have a starting point and can avoid the dealer service.

    What did you do to your Ram today???

    It warmed up some today, 35°. so I went out and knocked the ice of the MPR lever, reconnected the battery (trans shifted to park as soon as the battery was connected) and started the truck. Drove it around with no issues, shifted to park without hesitation. Set my camera up to watch the lever...

    What did you do to your Ram today???

    Nope, normal driving on wet/snow slushy roads. I could here and feel the slush hitting the bottom of the truck and it's packed in there. I'll find out tomorrow when I reconnect the battery

    What did you do to your Ram today???

    You have to have the offroad group for the skid plates I believe

    What did you do to your Ram today???

    From what I'm reading, it's the manual park release lever not being able to move. From what I'm reading, apparently that lever does have some interaction with the selector dial when placed in park. Search ram 1500 flashing park/service transmission after heavy snow. I had no idea there were...

    What did you do to your Ram today???

    IDK, I'd have thought they would have tested in these conditions but seeing TRXs experiencing the exact same issue, maybe it slipped through testing and takes a specific set of circumstances for this to occur. There's definitely lot of slush and snow packed up under the truck. If this turns...

    What did you do to your Ram today???

    That's nice dry snow, the snow today was very wet and turned to slush quickly. TRX's in the link above had the same issue

    What did you do to your Ram today???

    Battery is only a year old but that would be an easy fix that won't bother me as its a 3 year full replacement battery warranty. I'll check that when I reconnect everything and its warmed up enough to melts the snow underneath

    What did you do to your Ram today???

    I thought about that too but I don't think that's it. I suspect it's got something to do with the MPR cable (Manual Park/Release) lever That's where the cable connects to the lever on the trans The harness is here There's no electronics in that area other than the front and rear O2...
