    Buying 1st truck - advice on bed length

    Ya, but over time they looked ragged. AGAIN, who cares about my opinion, buy what you like. If you google Dodge A200 trucks, you'll see many of them, they are OEM.

    Buying 1st truck - advice on bed length

    I'm not trying to convince anyone that they should or shouldn't, if you like them, buy them. Look at the small compartment on bed.

    Buying 1st truck - advice on bed length

    Dodge Ram Camper specials from the 60's had them. If you like them, buy them, my vote is without.

    Buying 1st truck - advice on bed length

    Love the Hemi (W/O E torque) and glad I bought one before they are gone. I'm not a fan of the new motor, but again, to each his own.

    Buying 1st truck - advice on bed length

    My issue is that eventually as the truck ages, they (Ram Boxes) will get all tweaked. I'm not talking about 5 years, I'm talking about 15 to 20 years. A long time ago you could get side panels under the bed floor line, built into the bed, if you find one those now the door is sprung or missing...

    Buying 1st truck - advice on bed length

    I don't like either Ram Box or Multi Function tail gate, but to each his own.

    @strinos what year, trim and motor were you trying to purchase?

    Buying 1st truck - advice on bed length

    It only takes one time to wish you bought the long bed. An example of this is my exodus, from the Left coast. I had a 2300 sq/ft home packed into a moving van, a 12' cargo trailer and my 8' bed. I had the 12' trailer packed to the roof with house hold goods with my Harley encased in plywood. My...

    2025 RAM 1500 BIGHORN 3.0 I HURRICANE twin-turbo, SO, 420HP - check engine light

    Depending on State law, check with an attorney that specializes in that.

    Price negotiated from MSRP

    Nice, 5.7 is a good motor, just don't follow the recommended oil changes, change it every 5K/12mo intervals.

    Buying 1st truck - advice on bed length

    looks are secondary, function is what I want. Quad Cabs are not going to have a good trade in value, I made that mistake when I bought a 2016 Quad cab Tacoma with the long bed. I later found out that you could get a crew cab with the long bed in a tacoma, but you had to look hard to find them...

    Buying 1st truck - advice on bed length

    I won't go any less than a 6.4 bed, I've had many 8' beds and 6.4 is small for me, its a preference and also can get better trade in on the flavor of the month, but I want the longest bed possible. One day you'll wish you had a 6.4 bed, but its my choice for a longer bed. I wanted an 8' bed in a...

    2025 RAM 1500 BIGHORN 3.0 I HURRICANE twin-turbo, SO, 420HP - check engine light

    So what does the owners manual have for fuel recommendation, running 91/93 octane will add a heck of alot more to operating costs?

    2025 RAM 1500 BIGHORN 3.0 I HURRICANE twin-turbo, SO, 420HP - check engine light

    Could the new combustion sensor, thats supposed to actually see the gas igniting, be causing contaminated fuel to be seen, that normally would burn with the normal combustion process of an engine without the new sensors? Cheap gas vrs top brand gas?

    2025 RAM 1500 BIGHORN 3.0 I HURRICANE twin-turbo, SO, 420HP - check engine light

    When the 2019 & 2020 6.7 CTD trucks started to lose the CP4.2 HPFP early on at low miles, the first thing Ram went to was contaminated fuel. As time went on, more and more CP4.2 failures, Ram eventually recalled them and replaced them with an updated CP3. I don't remember if the owners with...

    2025 RAM 1500 BIGHORN 3.0 I HURRICANE twin-turbo, SO, 420HP - check engine light

    I've owned a 2019 3500, a 2007 Ram C&C (which was available in early 06 as a 2007 MY). Also owned a 2004.5 2500 4X4 5.9 CTD with manual trans, and a 1994 2500 360 magnum, (The truck that saved Dodge trucks) but I have never read so much trouble that the 2025 3.0 SST has, then all of the first...

    Has anyone added a factory trailer brake controller to a 2025 yet?

    Who knows, I don't even think they know apparently.
