    meguiars hybrid paint coating

    I just did the same. I polished the whole truck with Koch Chemie M3.02 and my Flex XCE with Buff and Shine Yellow URO-TEC pads. Like yours the paint was in great shape as the truck only had 1500 miles on it. I'm always surprised how much better polishing can make any vehicle look. Really...

    Bilstein 6112

    What do you mean "what it will look like"? Picture of the installed suspension? Or just a picture of the truck? The 6112 can be set anywhere from stock ride height to 7 taller heights.

    Dash Cam?

    I just put a blackvue 650 with front and back cameras in mine. I bought it years ago for a car I sold right after I got it. For some reason I never bothered to use it in cars since. Install is really easy. Pull off the interior A pillar trim (2 bolts) and the trim panel under the steering...

    Any of you guys have done 6112's in the front ?

    Finally got around to installing my 6112s on the front. I went with clip #4 to preserve some rake and suspension droop. The front raised just under 1 1/4" at this setting. This is the factory non-orp Hemi 4x4 Crew Cab suspension. Before: After:

    Just sold to Vroom...

    My guess is bad.

    Speedometer calibration

    I did. It's not much money if you go the alfaobd route and then you have the tools to do other things if you like (and can be used on other vehicles too).

    eTorque Hemi Oil Filter

    Everyone will have an opinion on this. Just picked up a FRAM Ultra Synthetic XG10060 for $9 at Walmart for my Hemi eTorque. From reading on Bobistheoilguy.com it'll be hard to find a better filter for the money (or period really).

    Does DEF always come with full for new RAM 1500?

    Well I typically negotiate for much more than the cost of a full tank of fuel that the 8 gallons is nothing compared to how many times over I can fill it with the savings.

    Dealers only give you 8 gallons of fuel. If you get a full tank your dealer is being nice.

    I haven’t done it yet but I’m leaning towards clip #4 myself. I have the regular suspension Hemi crew cab. I probably won’t install for another week or so.

    Cant find MDS

    Man I wish I could be in ECO mode that frequently. In your case why would you want to disable it. It has to be doing great things for your fuel mileage if it really is on that much. And no it will not cause reduced durability too your engine.

    Help - Larger Tires sizes that fit on Stock Setups 285/60or65/R20's. without Rubbing?? Would love some advice and info

    Tires only. No leveling kit. 275/60R20 is only 1" taller tire. No issues fitting them. I am putting on Bilstein 6112s next weekend and will level it.

    Ridiculously Stupid Good Gas Mileage

    I’m glad you got a laugh at that. :) When MDS is active it’s great. I agree it is annoying if it keeps going in and out then there isn’t much benefit. I do wish the EPA would revise their testing to mimic more real world driving scenarios. I think you’d see a lot of cars data change quite a...

    Ridiculously Stupid Good Gas Mileage

    I mean aren’t you the reason? It has nothing to do with buying fuel. It has to do with the effects on the planet and you choosing to cause higher fuel consumption and pollution. The government has to step in to stop you for the benefit of everyone else in the country / planet and all those...

    Cooper discovery at3 4s 275/60-20 installed.

    You can use Alfaobd $50, SGW bypass cable $25, Bluetooth obdii adapter $10 and your Android phone/tablet to change your tire size. I think it’s well worth it.

    AlfaOBD

    Thank you for this. I located another Android phone to use without the storage issue so I could back up my configuration and attempted this again. Turns out I had the tire size set to 2558. I changed it back to 2462 and Parksense worked. Changed it to 2550 and still worked. Changed it to 2556...

    Who Leases? Who Purchased?

    A wise man once told me never to sink money into depreciating assets. Use that cash for appreciating assets or in general find ways to have that cash make you money. I am more partial to leasing especially with the low interest rates, factory incentives, only pay tax on leased portion of...

    AlfaOBD

    My park sense is not working either after changing my tire size on my 2021 Big Horn. I think I prefer an accurate speedometer over park sense though. Can you share what the default tire size is? My pixel 3 phone has a compatibility issue with Alfaobd (and storage) and I was not able to back...

    Help me understand how this trade in offer works?

    Usually every 3 years for CDJR vehicles. Not every update is of much significance.
