    3.21 vs. 3.92

    Ran it in 8th, so MDS was disabled. I think the RPM for both 8th gear and 7th gear were higher than what I posted, ~1800/1,900rpm in 8th and maybe ~2,200 rpm for 7th gear. 1.3.21 2 & 3. Yes. Even in Florida with flat roads the truck loves to downshift from 8th a lot. For example, cruise...

    Swapping gears & adding LSD

    Yup. Never really used 4wd in my raptors. Sugar sand/mud etc. Only used it in the truly deep locations. Would spend a day on the trails and could rock the locked diff at most. That and tires play a big role, as you said.

    My RANT for the day / week / year ??? Lol

    Nah, they suck. Especially when I'm backing up early in the AM. Might as well wear night vision goggles.

    BETTER AIR FILTER...K&N or AirRaid

    Mopar will have their version out supposedly in December. Probably will cost more than the Vararam but I assume there will be zero warranty issues with their unit.

    2004 Dodge Ram SRT-10:

    Wish they would make a TR/TRX but in a street version. Market may not be huge, but there still are plenty of performance folks out there that want another Lightning/HD/SRT-10 truck over a bloated "trophy truck". Seems that market died and never came back after the recession.

    Ram plans to overtake Silverado

    I was actually looking at the Chevys before the Ram, mainly due to the rare 6.2L engine they offered in the Silverado/Sierra. However, the interior for both the outgoing and new model just weren't up to par for the pricing.

    Mopar 4" Lift Kit

    Is that for the DS(4th Gen) or the DT? That stock photo of the front end looks like a 4th Gen 1500. Then again, isn't the suspension largely unchanged? *May be clouding my mind with the leveling kits.

    DIY Oil Change Shopping list for the 5.7

    FWIW, my fathers 392 rockers went bad at 72k miles. Had the 100k warranty from factory(2015 model) and there was no questions asked about oil used/oil changes. Simple, "it's covered and you'll get it back in a few days" and that was that. Always done his own maintenance from day 1. Of course...

    Power Steering Failure! Super Dangerous

    @alacombe I don't blame you. Boatload of issues already, and one is potentially deadly.

    Swapping gears & adding LSD

    Usually have had it in all the trucks/vehiciles I've had. While this truck won't see super soft sand/snow, I do drive through rain a lot and occasionally drive on dirt roads. I sent a message to Moe's and I'm waiting for a response back.

    Swapping gears & adding LSD

    *Note, I know I should of selected said options before buying, but's what's done is done. Completely spaced out that LSD/Anti-slip was an option when buying. Gear wise, getting tired of the truck downshifting from 8th when it hits any resistance. Looking to finally swap gears(3.21 to 3.92)...

    Borla S-type exhaust

    Who will run the bank account? Admin/mod? Or bank account of someone at Borla? Been on forums long enough to be wary of giving some poster a large sum of money just to go awol.

    3.21 vs. 3.92

    FWIW: I've been driving on the highway locking out 8th gear @ 80mph just to see the difference in mileage at ~1,700 rpm in 8th and ~2,100rpm in 7th. Cruise control and flat roads, same conditions for both "runs". At worst, the computer estimated 1mpg lost in some stretches, and others, it was...

    2WD vs. 4WD suspension?

    Same suspension setup. If it says 4WD, it'll work on 2WD setups. 33's, no suspension work needed. Coil setup*

    Navigation voice search

    No issues so far. Just need to speak clearly in my case. Search isn't too bad via the touchscreen either.

    Lifts without new tires

    @PorBoy Has a pic of his truck lifted 2" with the Mopar setup on stock 32's I believe. (At least I hope I tagged the right poster lol)

    New tires on stock 20’s

    Looks great. Not making my decision for tires any easier lol.
