    87 Octane

    With 89 vs 87 you might hit 0-60 a half second sooner. The question is, would you notice?

    Muffler recommendation

    Make sure you disable MDS every time you get in your truck. Few things in the world sound as crappy as amplified MDS.

    What do I do to remove this damn govener?

    As it should. C'mon guys. You're going to adjust the engine parameters well beyond what RAM warranties and then when you screw something up you try to 'trick' RAM into paying for warranty work? That behavior raises the prices for all RAM's. Have some integrity. If you're going to 'play' you...

    Coolant on the left - Washer fluid on the right... A cautionary tale

    I put a piece of tape on the coolant reservoir marked 'COOLANT' when I first noticed the similarities. But even better, think I'll just paint the washer fluid cap blue. It should be a universal thing that washer fluid caps are blue.

    harman kardon is nothing than a bag of trash

    Disconnect your sub and you'll think you got a new stereo. I did it and it's night and day. The hour of work to do it pays in dividends.

    harman kardon is nothing than a bag of trash

    The HK 19 speaker system in the RAM was 'sound engineered' and approved by a bunch of monkey's. Total oversaturation of the lowest frequencies (Sub) Disconnect the Sub and you have a garbage system become a pretty good system.

    Spare Tire (theft prevention)

    Remove your spare tire. Keep a tire plug kit, a few tools (needle nose pliers, regular pliers, screwdrivers) and a small DC air compressor under your backseat. Should be enough unless you have a blowout or nail a curb really good. Keep your tires properly inflated and you won't' have blowout.

    12" Split screen question

    Don't get too excited. The Nav screen will not remember you actually like having the Nav screen enabled with the speed limit usually showing. It thinks that everytime you start your truck that you want to enter a destination on your Nav. You'll see. It's so stupid. I really like the Nav...

    12" Split screen question

    Resurrecting a 2-1/2 year old thread because, unless I'm mistaken, RAM still has not addressed this glitch. And it IS a glitch. There's no reason I can think of why Uconnect doesn't remember when you have the navigation MAP selected. Why on earth does it default to 'favorites' to where you have...

    Battery Voltage Indicator - falling numbers

    Battery voltage should not drop below 14.0 volts when the engine is running, and if it does it definitely shouldn't be for very long.

    Air suspension malfunction?

    Yes, it is out. Front end geometry is fixed. I'm guessing RAM has the front end alignment dialed in somewhere between normal and aero mode height since aero gets a lot of highway miles.

    An Engineer's Ultimate Guide To 3.21 VS 3.92 Axle Ratio

    If these trucks had little two cylinder 45Hp engines, then rear end ratio would count for a LOT. But with 400HP & 400ft/lb of torque does it really matter? The engine is gonna pull.

    air suspension truck leaning on one side

    https://airlinksgc.com/ram-airlinks I think the guy's name is Shane. Email him and tell him what you're trying to do. He'll send them to you close to how want and you can tweak them after you try his settings first. He's a friendly dude.

    air suspension truck leaning on one side

    I have 'airlinks' on all four corners. About $100 for all four. I have mine sitting pretty level, but can tell you that trucks with air suspension never sit the same from day to day. There is about a 1" height tolerance (front and rear) that the truck stays between. But some days you'll be...

    Truck showing incorrect outside temperature

    I don't know where other car manufacturers put their outside temp gauges. Maybe in the front grill area or under a wheel well? But wherever they are usually located isn't inside a plastic case that takes forever to adjust, especially when the sun shines on the plastic case and heats the inside...

    Learned something new - vented seats

    This makes sense that blowing cold air from the foot vents translates into a cooler feeling on the vented seats, but for me when it's 100 degrees out I need the cold air blowing on my upper body more than in the seats. So upper vents for me in a super hot cabin.

    Idle Surging when put into reverse

    Almost smashed into my front garage wall when i started it the other day to pull up slightly. This needs to be recalled in my opinion. Surprised there aren't more stories of trucks lurching forward into things.

    Truck showing incorrect outside temperature

    I have never had a more inaccurate outside thermometer in any vehicle than in my 2020 Limited. Placing the sensor inside a mirror housing was such a moronic decision. Just put it where everyone else does. It may be way off when you first get in the truck, but as soon as you start driving it...

    Former F-150 owners: what do you miss?

    Not much. My list of things I like better on the RAM is much longer. -Door Keypad -Low RPM torque from the twin turbo's -I missed the console shifter at first, but have grown to love the dial. -MPG Welp, that's about it.
