    Electronics exposed under driver door?

    Wow. I hadn't realized these trucks had active vibration dampening. That's pretty advanced for a pickup truck.

    Cooper Discoverer A/T LT265/70R17 121S Tires - WHAT AM I MISSING?

    I got the new Cooper tires installed on Friday, August 13, 2021. I was supposed to get them installed at 8:00 am at the local Walmart, but only 3 or the 4 tires I ordered had arrived and the appointment I had made to have them installed on Wallmart.com was nowhere on the schedule at the store...

    Sunroof Opening

    That makes sense. We normally open the back window when we open the roof. That provides better ventilation and kills the helicopter effect completely.

    How cold should the AC in my 21 be?

    The AC in our 2021 Laramie with panoramic sunroof does okay, even here in Arkansas with 100+ degree days. Like most of the newer Mopars we have owned, it doesn't cool much when first started until you are moving. Then it's fine after we start moving even if we later park somewhere and let it...

    Aftermarket Exhaust - No Drone even in MDS?

    When I bought my 2006 Charger R/T Daytona, it had headers and straight pipes. The MDS drove me crazy droning high then low, high then low. My solution was to replace the straight pipes with a set of better shorty headers and the stock dual exhaust off of another R/T. Then I removed the...

    Sunroof Opening

    Yes. That's how ours works as well. Not sure why. And same deal with the motion stopping one of the other functions. Seems they only work one at a time.

    Bed extender or Cargo divider?

    I went another way. My Laramie doesn't have Ram boxes but did come with the BUG. For a bed divider, I lucked out. Since this truck came with the bed package, it has the rails and movable tie-down points in it already. In my pile of ever-growing junk, I had a new cargo net for a Chrysler 200...

    Dodge RAM Charger Rendering Brings Back A Classic SUV

    I love it. But it will likely need to have four doors. ;) Modified using ONLY Microsoft Paint that comes stock with Windows. That's all I had to work with this morning. :rolleyes:

    What did you do to your Ram today???

    Today, I decided that the front bumper would look better without the license plate. For bumper plugs, I bought four of the HIllman brand 3/8" metal hole plugs at Lowes. Then I used some small pliers to expand the flanges on the back just a little bit. This made them pop in nice and tight...

    Saw an argument over Dodge vs Ram

    I believe this was done so the remaining divisions of the former Chrysler Corporation could be sold off separately if needed. There is really nothing new being developed for current Charger, Challenger and 300. They are getting long in the tooth. They switch around existing options, models...

    Cooper Discoverer A/T LT265/70R17 121S Tires - WHAT AM I MISSING?

    After searching high and low, I finally decided this morning to get these tires. Nothing else even comes close to the price for these specs. The sale was off so I paid $136 per tire. Total with sale tax was a flat $595.00. I figure I will pay between $15 and $25 per tire for mounting and...

    What is this part called?

    Thanks. I was getting worried I didn't have all the parts I needed yet. So far I'm at the following: Take-off Storage Bin with all hardware from 2021 Laramie - $150 Shipping for the Bin - $65 Riser Shields and New Handle Cover w/shipping - $76.95 That totals $291.95. I was hoping to keep...

    What is this part called?

    Do you need to install different metal risers themselves, or just new riser shields?

    Show some of your previous Cars!!

    Here is the next car on my list. We have to go back a year to the summer of 1989. I had finished the spring semester at Magnolia and was preparing to go to the ROTC Advanced Course at Fort Riley, Kansas in July. I was in an advanced placement program and was going to get commissioned there...

    Show some of your previous Cars!!

    This is a photo of a car just like my much beloved 1981 Grand Prix. This car originally came with the much-dreaded Oldsmobile 350 diesel engine. This car was only two years old when I bought it off a used car lot in Texarkana for not much money. About a year afterward, I rebuilt the diesel...
