    Water collecting under hood emblems

    I blow them out with a DeWalt hand-blower after I wash the truck.

    Poor gas mileage

    I'm getting the roughly the same mpg as the OP. Taken the truck in several times and they always say everything checks out ok. At this point, I'm just waiting for someone to file a class-action lawsuit against RAM for grossly misrepresenting the EPA numbers.

    Radio volume diminishing

    Over the last few weeks I've noticed the volume of the radio gradually getting lower after driving. It'll start off at a moderate volume level but then after listen for a while (15+ minutes) it'll start to go lower. You have to go about half way up on the volume to even get it to a normal...

    2019 Ram 1500 5th wheel towing

    I wanted to see if I can get some advice on a 5th wheel hitch. I have a Rebel with the ORP that has a max trailer weight of 11,330 lbs. I have yet to purchase a 5th wheel trailer as I'm in the research phase right now. In regards to the hitch I see some Mopar ones. Are there any advantages to...

    Side steps/running boards

    There are lots of threads on side-steps. You just need to look at them and see what suits your fancy.

    Where did you get that ramp?

    Can rear suspension handle a motorcycle carrier

    I have a dirt bike that I'll put on my hitch mount rack and it definitely sways no matter how well it is cinched down. I can't imagine ever putting a heavier bike on one.

    Quick oil recommendations

    I did mine at 1,500 with Mobil 1 and a 20k mile oil filter. I installed a Fumoto quick release valve at the same time.

    FCA Leads Mild-Hybrid Sales With eTorque Offerings:

    WHAT A JOKE! It is over priced and a bogus claim as my eTorque equipped Rebel gets 12 mpg after 9,000 miles.

    3.92 Mileage Disappointment

    I'm at 8,600 miles and my lifetime is 12 mpg (Rebel 3.92). Incidentally, it was at 12.2 after the first 1,000 miles. So the whole notation about the engine needing to break-in is BS!

    Door Ding

    I have one there too, albeit my fault for letting the door tap a car's sideview mirror. I don't know if it's my imagination, but the metal seems thinner/flimsier than my '04 Ram. Nonetheless, my auto detailer was able to get some of the ding out. I'd say it's about 50% better but still...

    Anyone carry a fire extinguisher?

    I keep mine in the glove box.

    An Engineer's Ultimate Guide To 3.21 VS 3.92 Axle Ratio

    Any idea on what the gas mileage difference is between a 3.21 and a 3.92?

    Change stock speakers without an after market amp?

    IMO just replace the dash speakers with any quality speaker. It’ll be the best bang for your buck you can spend and you’ll probably be happy with that one simple mod.

    SiriusXM

    Any noticeable difference in the sound quality streaming from your phone verses the on-board Sirius? My initial subscription ended a couple weeks ago and I'm undecided if I want to renew.

    V8 with eTorque

    Obviously it depends on which truck you purchase and your driving habits. After 8,000 miles my Rebel with 3.92 diff gets 12 mpg city and 15 mpg highway.

    Just a quick question for Rebel owners

    You should have two, one for each side.

    That "feature" is there for your protection. :LOL:

    After 8,000 miles I got the best mileage yet during a 1,200 mile road trip.. 14.7 mpg based on hand calculation. I was driving 70-80 mph most of the time.
