    Has anyone tried to put factory chev/ gmc wheels on a 5th gen?

    I know this sounds like a crazy idea, but I understand the 2019 rams have the same bolt pattern as the current chevrolet 1500. I want to buy some 20" wheels for winter, and can pick up used gm 20" wheels for a decent price compared to new ram wheels....

    Best tuner for 2019 Ram 1500

    My opinion is that if you are looking for more power, you are better off going with a custom tune from a trusted local tuner. They are usually not too much more than a good handheld tuner and they can tweak it to your preferences and modifications.

    Ok yea, these 5th gens have issues and its not like "everyone else"

    On the bright side, we have had 3 4th gen rams and now have 2 5th gens in our Family bussiness with zero issues so far. The 2017 had one warranty issue with keyless entry and the others have been completely flawless. This was not the case with a 2015 sierra denali that we had tons of...

    Testing out my new limited with 22’s off road

    Thanks for the insight, I find the ram seats to be pretty good for my body type but I guess it is a very subjective thing. Volvo seats are certainly some of the best in the industry, i didn't care for the T8 powertrain in the one I drove, but many people seem to love that as well.

    Testing out my new limited with 22’s off road

    Nice garage! How does the limited interior compare to the XC90 and 7 series? It has been a few months since i was in a new volvo but at that point it seemed like one of the best suv interiors i had seen.

    2019 Larmie Black!

    no 12".... I didn't want to wait for a factory order and the 8.4 works good for me. I am more of a hardware guy not a tech guy so that wasn't the top priority.

    2019 Larmie Black!

    I am writing this up when i have time, so please bear with me if my writing is a little disjointed. I come from a Chevy family, and work on old chevys for fun on the weekends. For the last few years I have driven a ram as my daily driver/ work truck as they fit my needs very well. I love the...

    2019 Larmie Black!

    I finally managed to find a truck that was optioned close to what I was looking for, I picked it up yesterday and am very happy so far. I wanted the 3:92 gears, trailer brake, small mirrors and the 22" wheels that come with the Black package. To get these options we ended up with some extras...

    New member on the fence between 1500 and Tundra...

    I have driven a couple of Tundra's and personally didn't care for them, even in comparison to my 2010 GMC sierra or my current 2017 Ram. The new Ram is even better than the 4th gen, so in my opinion it is significantly better than the tundra. I have also had 4 Rams ranging from 2012-2019 in the...

    2019 Laramie Sound Improvement?

    I have had good success with cold air intakes, they don't seem to add the advertised power but do improve the sound. Exhaust systmes tend to sound wierd in eco/4cyl mode.

    Video - Canucks and Trucks F-150 Limited vs. Ram

    I would think the Raptor is heavier than the limited. The big tires, HD suspension and off road flares etc are all likely to add weight. The limited F150 should be very fast, it is definitly no match for the limited Ram as far as ride quality and interior however. It feels like a normal truck...

    A65 Rebel level 2 package???

    Thank you! I am looking to buy a sport with 22" wheels , 3:92 rearend and trailer brake controller to replace my 2017 night edition. This one has the equipment i want and some extras so hopefully it works out.

    A65 Rebel level 2 package???

    Does anyone know what is included in this package? It is listed as an option on the build sheet for a 2019 canadian sport, and i can't seem to find any info relating to it online.

    I just don't get it.

    The new laramie is hitting 14 second 1/4 mile, and low 6 second 0-60. This might not be best in class but it is hardly lethargic. Similar to a vw GTI or other similar hot hatches. The eco-boost trucks feel fast at part throttle but dont have much more to give top end, non turbo v8 needs a little...

    2019 F150 Limited

    The ram is a much nicer package from a ride quality, interior and comfort perspective. I never feel like the hemi and 8 speed combo is lacking power but it would be nice....bring on the 426 or even the 392 !!! I have driven the current 2018 ecoboost and didnt care for it compared to the ram...

    Any Gen 5 regrets??

    I drive a 2017 loaded 1500 night edition and love it. I took my old mans 19 limited on a road trip last weekend and it is better in pretty much every way. It rides even better, the steering and brakes feel better, and it feels a touch quicker. The interior is also in another league, acres of...

    What is keeping Dodge alive?

    The 5.2 voodoo also makes very little torque at low RPM, its a different animal than a hemi of any type supercharged or otherwise. I am glad both exist! The challenger is a little bit different than the camaro and mustang, bigger and a little heavier and more comfortable.(not by as much as...

    Any news on 5th gen regular cabs?

    I had 2 express reg cab rams with the 5.7, they are fun little trucks. Hopefully they offer the new one with 3:92 gears and the sport exterior, it would probably give an srt-10 a run for its money off the line. Even the Gen 4 would hit 60MPH in less than 6.
