    Broken windshield

    I called a dealer about getting a new windshield yesterday. The guy said it usually takes about 3 attempts to get a new windshield delivered that is not broke. Apparently the windshields are not packaged well. Or maybe the windshields are made really cheap? My windshield is cracking more...

    Adding brake controller to Ram 1500 Laramie - Cost/difficulty?

    Is the brake controller something that is visible? I don't have Max towing but do have the type iv hitch.

    Adding brake controller to Ram 1500 Laramie - Cost/difficulty?

    I need to add a brake controller to my 2019 Ram Laramie. I have searched for the subject and see that some have done this on their own. Also aware it has to be flashed after install. I would like to get opinions from anyone that has had it done or done it themselves. Thanks.

    Broken windshield

    Has to be a very tough job/life. My dad was usually gone for months at a time. I don't blame you for looking forward to retirement.

    Broken windshield

    Ouch. Do you think Safelite is a good company to use as opposed to a dealer? Are you still in the Merchant Marines? My dad was a Merchant Marine for over 30 years.

    Broken windshield

    $500.00 deductible. Ouch. I changed the policy to a $50.00 deductible for glass, going forward. The damage is not severe and does not effect my vision since it is so low on the windshield. But you can definitely feel the cracks from the outside and inside of the truck. Any concerns that I...

    Thanks all. I have a call into the insurance company. Will see what they have to say.

    Broken windshield

    Had a rock fly up from a passing car yesterday and hit my windshield in the bottom left corner. I now have spider cracks about 4" in diameter. I think there's a good chance it will spread. Is this something that will need to be replaced at a Ram dealer or can a auto glass repair business do...

    Gas mileage

    Is your truck 2WD or 4WD? I have 2WD and get 17 on the low end 20 on the high end. I don't drive slow. I have a bed cover; this may help just a little. I also have 18" wheels and tires which I am sure helps some. I also live in a flat land area. Mountains and high wind makes a little...

    Heated steering wheel upgrade

    Same here. I wonder if there is some hack that can be done to lower the temp on the steering wheel. After a few minutes, it's too hot to keep the heat on.

    Trading 2019 Laramie 2WD for 4WD?

    I'd prefer new, on the lot or order. I want the Laramie, same color and interior as mine. We are looking for property in Cloudcroftt NM, or nearby. Beautiful country and the weather is much better than east Texas. Did not think to look at Autotrader. Thanks.

    Trading 2019 Laramie 2WD for 4WD?

    Can you guys tell me what the availability is on 2020 Laramie 4WD trucks? We are strongly thinking about moving to a mountainous area where the 2WD Ram just will not cut it. Currently, we are Texans in flat land so did not need 4WD. That is one of the reasons I ordered the one I did because...

    To Buy Warranty or Not?

    Is this 85,000 additional miles? I will go to the website later but do they have a warranty with a higher deductible for less money?

    To Buy Warranty or Not?

    I have a 2018 Laramie with 5.7 Hemi. Everything is stock, including original tires and wheels. I do have a bed cover on it but doubt that is relevant in this issue. I have about 22,000 miles and have had zero problems at this point. Always change the oil and rotate tires on time. Would...

    Mopar wheel locks - key replacement?

    Thanks guys. I found the package the locking lug nuts came in along with the instructions to get a new key. Ordered one a couple of days ago and it shipped already.

    Mopar wheel locks - key replacement?

    Sorry I'm late responding. Internet has been up and down after Hurricane Laura. Thanks to all for the replies.

    Advanced wheel locks

    The Advanced wheel locks look great but with one extra key/socket they are $159.99. Ouch. Guess you get what you pay for though.
