    New wheels arrived today

    Those look really good. What upper control arms are those?

    Don't see many crewcab with 6'4" bed

    @moosem I had a 2017 1500 CC with the 5' 7" bed and thought at certain angles it looked a little too short for the truck. When I saw that they added 4" to the cab I thought the short bed would look even less proportional. However, I think they made the new bed slightly wider at the cab and with...

    iPod Classic Compatibility

    I have a 7th gen iPod classic, this is the last generation iPod classic which was discontinued in 2014. I had no problems with connectivity with my 2017 Ram 1500. I left it connected all the time and the UConnect always showed it and would play it and control the functions. My new ram with the...

    Spare tire WARNING

    I don't have the limited but I have the ORP. I looked under mine when I got it to confirm I got a matching tire which I did. I noticed that I had a steel wheel but didn't think too much of it because I thought I remembered seeing that the Rebel came with an aluminum wheel but not the Laramie...

    Please post your Tire and Loading sticker

    Your right I did know some of that. I believe the BFG's I got were C rated. I wanted more flex in the side wall and the vehicle light enough to use them. I just looked at the Wildpeak A/T3W that came on my ORP and they are C rated as well. I'm not sure what rating the tires on the Rebel are...

    Off road suspension or air suspension

    I have the ORP with coil springs and, I know it's subjective, I think it is smoother than the 2017 RAM 1500 4X2 it replaced. I wouldn't hesitate to get it again.

    Please post your Tire and Loading sticker

    I previously had a Toyota FJ Cruiser with a 32" tire. Then I lifted it and put a 33" MT tire on it. I put chalk on the tire tread to check how evenly the chalk wore off. I found I had to reduce the tire pressure to achieve an even contact patch across the tread. I don't remember the exact amount...

    Please post your Tire and Loading sticker

    @th3duke , Your tire pressures are much higher than mine. I know your tires are slightly larger than the ones on the ORP (LT275/65R18C) but my prior experience is a lower pressure is needed with a larger tire. I also find it interesting that the tire pressure for the front is different than the...

    How do you wash your truck?

    Wow!!!! That thing looks clean as hell. Is there a replacement for the product made by them?

    A Little Peace of Mind for those still waiting for their 2019 RAM

    After receiving my new RAM 1500 on Halloween (now about 300 miles old) I noticed many things not discussed that I see as improvements over my 2017 RAM 1500. I have seen many negative things posted about the new RAM and I understand the frustration. I have the clunk, the shifter knob issue, and a...

    Front end clunk while turning - FIXED - TSB # 23-047-18

    I too have the clunk when turning. Mine happens when turning in either direction. Started occurring after the first few days of driving approx. 100 miles. My build date is 10/18 last 8 of the VIN is KN682473. I seems to be increasing in occurrence as time goes on. I will probably wait until it...

    Don't see many crewcab with 6'4" bed

    I got the cc with the 6' 4" bed because I didn't want my occational longer loads from Home Depot to hang out so far beyond the open tailgate. Also, I thought it looked more proportional with the additional cab length.

    Two-Tone Laramie Longhorn

    I really like that unusual but great color combo. That brown second color would have been my choice for my Ivory Laramie but I would have had to go to the Longhorn trim level to get it and that was unfortunately out of my budget. You have a great looking truck!

    A Little Peace of Mind for those still waiting for their 2019 RAM

    Glad to hear a good experience. My truck is in transit right now so I'm crossing my fingers that I have a truck without the problems that have been reported. I know there are more trucks without problems than those with problems and that the ones with problems get written about more because the...

    Order Tracking

    Thanks for the reply. Has anyone heard from BBW? Did he get through the storm ok?

    Order Tracking

    Looks like my data on the list may have gotten messed up. I went from KZ yesterday to D today. Probably an update error. My VIN is 1C6SRFRT4KN682473.
