    how often is everyone changing oil

    I may be wrong, but I think selling snake oil was outlawed a while back!! If you have any modern car/truck/horse carriage/internal combustion engine none of this crap adds any value if you follow common sense service intervals (to me. 4-5000 intervals with full synthetic oil). The whole...

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

    @ 5,400 miles as of today. No CEL so far - she is running great. Had the first oil/filter change at 5350 by my dealer, and all looks good so far.

    I got The fronts from Husky, perfect fit. The picture of your rear Husky flaps looks like they don't fit snugly?

    2025 ram 1500 engine broke at 400miles

    You have a few good input/suggestions from members on this site. in my opinion, the best way is 1- work with the dealer that you bought the truck from. Just a wild-*** guess on my part, with the volume of reported issues with 2025 for all trims, maybe dealers put the tradesmen trim on the bottom...

    Chrome wheels

    Purely subjective -- on my 25 I have the optional factory full chrome wheels. When I bought my truck, all 25s on the lot had full chrome wheels. I hate them! pain to keep shiny and clean. Look good when they are clean - too much work to keep them shiny!
