    Extended Warranty Source?

    You can buy it any time but best before your factory warranty runs out. The price does go up as you have more miles but since it doesn’t really cover anything until the factory warranty runs out that’s your window for the best price. I usually wait about a year and see if I got a lemon. If I...

    Extended Warranty Source?

    This is true for ANY FCA extended warranty. You can either go back to the dealer you bought it from or direct to FCA and cancel any extended warranty at any time (you don’t even have to sell your vehicle- you can just cancel it and get a refund). I just did it on my 2019 Durango with Robbins...

    Extended Warranty Source?

    I just reached out to Robbins for my Limited about 2 weeks ago and it was still a few hundred bucks better than anything else Ive seen if you pay in full.

    Hit curb around 10MPH straight on. Need advice.

    If my truck’s drivetrain couldn’t take a good sized bump at 10 MPH I’d be extremely disappointed. If there was even a question I wouldn’t have bought it.

    Washer fluid type

    I use synthetic washer fluid with nano-ceramics and ferromagnetic additives. It’s not cheap at $17 an ounce but it keeps my washer fluid pump from failing and has a preservative that lubricates my wiper blades every time I use them. I also get an extra 4 MPG due to a slicker windshield! I...

    question about RV length...

    Remember also how much weight the hitch itself adds. You probably only have about +/-1300 pounds of payload so you don’t want to take up any more than you have to for the hitch. With 760 pound tongue weight you’re already flirting with the limit depending on how many people will be in the...

    First Oil Change, 1000 Miles or is this just Old Fashioned?

    Well…..it’s technically virgin. The extra virgin stuff never seems to do what it’s supposed to.

    First Oil Change, 1000 Miles or is this just Old Fashioned?

    Probably makes no difference so do whatever makes you feel warmer and fuzzier. I switch to olive oil at 2346 miles.

    New 2023 Ram 1500 Seat Belt Chime/Alert

    Stands to reason - it’s a software setting and you can flip the on/off option directly with Alfaobd instead of doing some silly Nintendo dance with the buttons

    Is it high enough to avoid door dings from other cars? That may be a good idea!
