    Poor gas mileage

    Since putting on the 33" Mickey's around 5k miles ago, she's settled down to 15.5 mpg - 16 mpg (mostly hwy), hand calculated. That's about a 1mpg drop over last years summer mileage. Not great.. but this truck has NEVER gotten the expected mileage. Fuelly link in the sig below.

    My new to me Truck died yesterday!!!

    The Etrq throws a wrench in that theory since the 48v Lithium battery in the Cab is charging the standard 12v battery.. also, it is not using the starter to restart the truck for A-S-S restarts, it uses the Etrq motor & 48v battery.

    How big have you towed? w/Pics no tricks!

    I believe Timbren's have an airbag kit for the 1500. ..but I've read it still makes the unloaded ride worse, even an the minimum air pressure.

    Battery might be toast.

    What's everyone using in their differentials?

    Went with Amsoil in all three (whatever weight/type they recommended for each).

    Bad fuel mileage 5.7 hemi

    Lie-o-Meter has been wrong most of the time on mine. Been tracking for 55k miles.

    Ram 1500 eTorque Voltage question

    Mine is all over the place as well, but not sure it's gotten below 13, even on a long drive.

    Phone wallpaper. What do you have?

    It rotates between photos, but this is the current one that on it. It was taken on the Tail of the Dragon last month.

    MPG skyrocketed or just a bad fill up.

    I'd say 99% of the stations I've been to in NJ, you can pump you're own. It's 100% against the law, I know I can get a ticket, and I know the station can be fined.. but I've never seen nor heard of it ever actually being enforced. I've been driving in NJ since the 90's. Every once in awhile you...

    MPG skyrocketed or just a bad fill up.

    I'm from Jersey (South Jersey) as well. Never had an attendant fill anything I've owned. (y)

    MPG skyrocketed or just a bad fill up.

    Someone I never let touch my vehicles.. hell, I don't even let them fill up my 5g cans.

    MPG skyrocketed or just a bad fill up.

    I'd wait and see how the rest of the tank plays out.. I always get EPIC mpg coming home from a gas station and disappointing results for the rest of the tank. :LOL:

    Tow/haul mode always when towing?

    Unfortunately, it only lets you lockout gears.. it will not let you select a gear and stay in it.

    Differential & Transfer Case service at 50k miles??

    Changed all mine (except transmission) at roughly 35k to Amsoil. I plan to do the transmission @ 60k as I've towed a decent amount with this truck, probably around 5k miles so far.

    Where do you find invoice pricing so I know what numbers I'm looking at?

    UConnect had schizoid embolism

    Uconnect sucks.. it is one of my biggest issues with this truck. I feel like it was only made for the 'Wow' factor to get you to buy the truck. The system itself is really bad and has zero support.

    Bilstein 5100 Ride Quality

    I think the spacers and extra rear lift blocks hurt your Chevy's ride. I have, and have had, Bilstein 5100's on my last 4 trucks (F250, 2 F150s, and the RAM 1500). All of them have rode better than stock, and I had them all set to the 2nd or 3rd notch up from factory ride height. (I tow and...

    New Mickey Thompson Baja Boss AT's on my Longhorn.

    I did get some tire rubbing last weekend! ..but it was an extreme case I doubt I'll ever be able to repeat it again. I had my enclosed trailer loaded to roughly 8,500 lbs of motorcycles & gear. To leave the place we loaded everything up, I had to maneuver this lumbering beast, in an S-curve...
