Great question since I ordered the wrong one initially. They told me, and I can confirm, that "Medium Blue Metallic (B5)" is a very close match to what came on the trucks. I did not order letters to go on the 1500 badge in the hood, because I was concerned that the colors wouldn't be a close...

It finally got above 50degrees so that I could apply the vinyl overlays from Reflective Concepts. I never liked the monotone dark look of my truck. These overlays compliment the blue “etorque” badge in the hood. It looks fantastic. Customer service was also outstanding. What I didn’t expect but...

The reality is that neither path, left to its own devices, works well. They work well in balance, and we (the taxpayers) will always argue about what the right balance is. More importantly, there will always be politicians that are making the decisions that affect that balance.

I did it on my 2015 Ram as well. I had never had a vehicle where the radiator cap wasn't metal with a pop top. I saw the plastic top and poured in windshield wiper fluid. I just siphoned until it stopped coming out blue. No harm no foul. It ran for another 70k miles before I traded it in.

I don't know the theories that are working in your head, but I only know about RAM's warning because it happened to me. Winter of 2021/22 I was towing my loaded two-place snowmobile trailer during a snowstorm. I came around a curve on the highway to see a car half on the shoulder and half in my...

It's CYA statement for rain but absolutely realistic in snow.

There's a reason all of us are out on truck forums, versus being out on a "love your spouse" forum ;) My wife has owned a BMW and now and Audi. Great cars until something goes wrong, and something always goes wrong eventually in every car. She throws out how much we paid and I just agree -...

To the OP and others, one important caution that has not yet been mentioned in the conversation is that you should not use Tow Mode in slippery conditions, mainly talking snow here but potentially rain as well. It's in the manual, but generally you don't want the engine braking causing your rear...

There are no dumb questions. Just people too dumb to ask.... 1. Keep it in 2WD unless you are driving in snow/slush. There is no need for auto. 2. You'll find out soon enough. 3. Look at the sticker by your driver's door. It will tell you the recommended pressure for each. 4. Yes - go into the...

Agreed but it shouldn't be consistently happening.

Interesting that it is freezing and sticking. I wonder what it is about the design that is causing that. I live in Minnesota which obviously gets lots of snow and occasional ice. I've got a dealer-added Access roll-up tonneau that has never frozen on me. Maybe that's because mine isn't flush...

I've loaded my ATV and snowmobiles into the truckbed using ramps. It is plenty strong. If you have any concerns, you can upgrade the tailgate cables. I haven't.

I had a crack spread this winter so got a non-cost insurance replacement. I have no issues with it yet.

Congrats on your purchase. Welcome to the forums

Another Ford convert here. I had a Mustang and four trucks. I only tow fishing boats and 2-place snowmobile trailers, so my expectations never needed to be backed down. It does everything that I need and is much better than the Fords in just about every way. You bought a big comfortable recliner...

Thanks. I bought four of them the other week.

When I buy anything used, I have a reverse sliding scale for how much extra to set aside for immediate repairs. If I buy something for $40k, I don't expect much. If I buy something for $5k, I set aside an extra $1-2k knowing that there will be some big skeletons in the closet. I once bought a...
