    1st RAM and 1st time 1/2 ton owner

    Love this truck, almost bought it. Mike did not give me a good deal a month ago. Hindsight - should have bought it. Good for you, it has everything that anyone needs!

    2025 RAM 1500 BIGHORN 3.0 I HURRICANE twin-turbo, SO, 420HP - check engine light

    Oh my God, I ran SW divisions for Fortune 500 companies for 30 years, and anytime the idiots above me decided to implement performance-based criteria, the overall performance, and productivity and quality were impacted mostly negatively. the issue is/was who is measuring employee's performance...

    2025 RAM 1500 BIGHORN 3.0 I HURRICANE twin-turbo, SO, 420HP - check engine light

    The clear bra (film) covers the entire front-end assembly, Half of the hood. the leading edge of the front fenders I had it on my 2019 for 5 1/2 years and had zero chips from rocks/gravel and other crap on the road. I have a guy in Gilbert AZ, who does a great job. It was $1000, a bit of a...

    2025 RAM 1500 BIGHORN 3.0 I HURRICANE twin-turbo, SO, 420HP - check engine light

    Just curious -- why the hell are techs not forced to be trained on the products they are working on? With all of my jobs in the past 40 years, if I did not complete the mandatory training, I did not get paid!

    TFL on Stellantis sales…..

    Take a look at the absolute dog-**** car companies that Stellantis owns. Chrysler thrived under FCA / Sergio Marchionne. God rest his soul. I kind of sort of like France -- however, they are not a car culture country. Look at all of the crap on this list (excluding RAM). The dumb...F....ks that...

    Rear Squat With Nissans Towing

    Agreed -- too many d...f....s towing stuff beyond the capabilities/ratings of their vehicles and traveling downhill @ 80+ mph. During summer, coming down from Mogellan Rim in AZ (many steep downhills) the road is scared by roasted trucks/trailers.

    2025 RAM 1500 BIGHORN 3.0 I HURRICANE twin-turbo, SO, 420HP - check engine light

    Man - I feel bad for the first customers of limited and tungsten with all of the gadgets/gizmos. It may take 6 - 12 months for the dealers to catch up with an understanding of the tech! I have a sub-basic big horn, and the Sr. tech had no idea why my non-nav system could not retain the time/date...

    2025 RAM 1500 BIGHORN 3.0 I HURRICANE twin-turbo, SO, 420HP - check engine light

    Agreed - inadequate QC/QA. I had fewer quality issues with my 2019 DT than my 2025!

    2025 RAM 1500 BIGHORN 3.0 I HURRICANE twin-turbo, SO, 420HP - check engine light

    I went to my dealer yesterday to correct a mistake after they installed the brake controller. I talked to the Sr. tech about the reported issues like CEL, he said that he has not dealt with this issue yet, also said that he and the other techs don't have much info about the changes in 2025. I...

    2025 RAM 1500 BIGHORN 3.0 I HURRICANE twin-turbo, SO, 420HP - check engine light

    Just a thought on trying to narrow down this issue to a "bad batch": What are your build dates? Is it possible that your trucks were the first batch rolling down the assembly line? Remember the first batch of 2019s that were built in June/July of 2018 had major issues with leaking panno roofs...

    Has anyone added a factory trailer brake controller to a 2025 yet?

    After i picked up the truck and came home last night, I noticed the wires lying on the back seat. I went back to the dealer for another issue this morning and the tech told me that my truck was already pre-wired, just needed the new module. He said it took him an hour to get the new module to...

    I did the factory reset (assume this is disconnecting the battery) and it did not work. The soft reset worked. Thanks Jimmy!

    2025 Ram 1500 Current Owners - Discussion, Feedback, and Problems

    Hey guys, A new nuance since my trailer brake install. Since my truck does not have GPS, post disconnecting the battery, Date/Time has to be reset manually through the center screen. Everytime since yesterday I re-start the truck, time/date has to be re-set. the setting holds while the engine...

    Has anyone added a factory trailer brake controller to a 2025 yet?

    Update: My dealer installed the brake controller yesterday. 1- yes, it is behind the rear seat 2- per the tech that installed mine, it was plug-and-play and he did not have to use the wires that are included in the kit 3- Looks like it is functional from SW perspective, I can set gain and select...

    2025 RAM 1500 BIGHORN 3.0 I HURRICANE twin-turbo, SO, 420HP - check engine light

    I Agree with the highlighted comment. Getting info on the revised trailer brake controller for my truck (I tried 3 local and 4 dealers from other states) was eye-opening for me. None of them had a clue about the changes on 2025 wiring, etc. My dealer did not figure it out until they "actually"...

    What did you do to your Ram today???

    I like them. I contacted them about fitting 2025 since the rear bumper is revised

    Software update can be a possible rootcause. It would be great to know more details about the update.

    2025 Ram 1500 Current Owners - Discussion, Feedback, and Problems

    A few questions for the Big Horn - level 1 owners: 1- Is there a "rain sensing" wiper function? 2- Auto high beam? 3- A few times that I have discounted the battery, I had to manually adjust time/date. Is this because I don't have GPS? 4- Can a GPS antenna be added to my truck? is the empty...
