    Mirrors

    Do you have the heat symbol in the corner of the mirror glass?

    Possible to add gps to 8” Uconnect

    If you are meaning add NAV to a non-NAV, it's not possible for the 5th Gen. You will need to do as the above-poster recommends.

    An incompetent salesman rant

    I can relate! My division writes the product manuals for our salesman training. Clearly printed on every page is the "Confidential - Internal Use Only" and not to mention the first page everyone must read and sign off acknowledgment. I cannot tell you how many times customer issues get raised...

    Do you like your MDS?

    I'm in the camp of misplaced technology in a full-size truck. In the 5th Gen, the exhaust sound is the clear giveaway of it kicking in and I feel it more noticeable in the 5th Gen. Coming out of it to accelerate can be physically felt. I've not ridden in or driven another 5th Gen that's any...

    An incompetent salesman rant

    Trust me, it is not just auto sales either. I have watched my company's sales team go from professionals who knew the ins and outs of my products just as well as my junior engineers and it made them adept at selling value to customers and building customers for their career, and now we have a...

    Powerstep Installation

    For factory build with them, no doubt. I've submitted the question via email for Mopar bolt-on by dealer. Let's see if I get a response. If so, that's a big discrimator.

    Powerstep Installation

    You raise an interesting point. If those of us with MaxCare warranties and install the Mopar, will the coverage extend... Loved my prior AMP steps, but prefer the control of the Mopar for the 2019. The illumination can easily be added so that's not a factor for me at all. The Mopar steps...

    No More Laramie 4x4 Crew Cab 5'7" Bed with HEMI and NO ETORQUE

    Or it could tell you the build is still possible and you could wait till ordering reopens in your area. Do note your dealer will not search very far. They stick within regional dealerships. You might need to do the work yourself and run through the RAM inventory online. Laramies are ultra...

    Shopping for a new camper

    The mass consolidation in the recreational vehicle industry has not been to the customer's benefit. I loved my Open Range...till Jayco bought them under the pretense of it's own business unit.... Well, own business unit meant name and plant, but fully following the Jayco ways. I said goodbye...

    No More Laramie 4x4 Crew Cab 5'7" Bed with HEMI and NO ETORQUE

    I would offer two suggestions: 1) Search dealer inventory for your truck already built and on a lot somewhere. 2) Check a dealer outside your region, especially a high-volume one. It's common for order restrictions to roll through regionally. I would seriously doubt this is a global...

    Lomax install help

    Three measures: 1. Open tailgate in the daylight and look for light leakage. 2. Along the sides, your rail should be low enough such that the seal is tight on the Lomax rails and kisses the bed caps with a little passion. 3. Tailgate should pop and release without issue and also close without...

    LED accessory back up lights?

    I put in the adapter harness with pigtail off the factory trailer harness. I wanted to be able to have clean removal if I ever wanted or needed to. If you don't care about splicing, everything you need is in the trailer harness.

    Check Your Fender Flares.

    Call Josh and Avondale in Arizona. They're a brick n mortar dealer but have a huge internet business that Josh primarily tends to. He's a straight shooter and will even put up an eBay auction for you to buy them with ease. If they're available, he will get them.

    When are you doing your first oil change?

    Factory filter literally says so! It's printed on it. The filter now on is definitely an off-the-shelf Mopar filter for resale and not the factory.

    Excessive amount of recalls?? My truck is now at dealer, should I take delivery?

    Human nature is the freely complain and rarely complement. You cannot use a forum as a measure. We just hit 8000 members here, and compared to total production built to date, that's a drop in a lake. This modern expectation of perfection at every price point is absolutely ridiculous. Nothing...

    Mirror cost?

    Greatly depends on what mirror you have. There are a lot of configurations. Waa it just the glass or did you wreck the housing?

    Excessive amount of recalls?? My truck is now at dealer, should I take delivery?

    Excessive? Your kidding! There is not even a handful! I had 98 Chevy C/K thar had more recalls, and that was a model built for 10 years before I bought it. As for the two-tone, that was the result of FCA production changes because they were getting pre-finished component mismatch and are...

    My new Limited - Extang Solid Fold and Bed Utility question

    Check out Lomax too. Plenty on here about them. Personally, I would never buy a BAK or other Truck Hero brand after now having a Lomax.
