    VIDEO: We Take An In-Depth Look At The 2022 Ram 1500 G/T Package!

    Shifter shifted backwards…how else would it shift? Forwards? Sideways? All shifters have typically been front to back if in the console. When you did your test drive, did the shifter actually shift like it was mechanical (despite most likely being an electronic shifter)? What I'm referring...

    DEF Tank SKID PLATE made of FELT is Garbage

    Most of the tank is exposed to the air with the lower 1/3 covered by the felt. MOPAR parts calls it a skid plate, so I think it is there just to prevent rocks from puncturing the plastic DEF tank. Either way, it is too thin to be called a skid plate or insulation. I reached out to B2...

    Bed Rug Options

    You might check out Amazon versus Bedrug for your Bedrug pricing. We've purchased three from them over the years for various Rams in the family and always purchased the reduced-price Amazon Warehouse special. They don't have them all the time but when they do it is a heck of a deal. In our...

    Rear differential whine

    You might want to check out hdrams.com as that is the forum for the 2500/3500 series Rams. You'll most likely find a ton of information on the topic and guys who have suffered the same fate. Having said that, I had the same on a 2017 Ram 2500. Once they replaced the axle all was fine but in...

    FCA factory extended warranty verification

    In defense of the OP, while I agree with you - you’re technically incorrect and I can see why he is using the phrase…MaxCare is referred to on a a number of sites as bumper to bumper: https://www.chrysler-factory-warranty.com/warranty-plans/maximum-care/...

    Dang these safety sensors. Can we not back up these RAMs with the door open to look back?

    Agreed! Marriage adds another aspect to the relationship. She'll call you a dumba$$ and then cut you off for a month. But hang in there, you will eventually find the "comfy" spot on the couch so you can get a good night's sleep.

    How are the 2019's holding up?

    We currently have a 2019 Lone Star/Big Horn in the family. We had two of them but traded one of them off for my 2021 Big Horn. On both the 2019s, they had the shaky driver side mirror which our local Ram dealer replaced without a question. They said there was an issue with some of the 2019...

    News on a tune?

    Dumb question but if you're paying for a tune, why in the world would you also need to add a throttle sensor to do away with throttle lag. If you ask me, if I buy a tune then I shouldn't need to have something else hooked up to my system. It sounds to me like they "sorta have a tune" but "you...

    Oil analysis report.

    I'm curious how BL has saved you money? Exactly what have the reports indicated and what actions did you take that saved money?

    OBDLink MX+ and Ecodiesel

    Yes, the boost gauges I initially found were not working either and then I found these in the attached pic (see the two at the top)…still playing with it to find the correct gauges I'm seeking:

    Purchased 2021 Limited…options missing!

    Sorry to hear about that as it must be very frustrating. To add a little levity to perhaps help your day (and the irony of this clip is they were really building FIATS):

    OBDLink MX+ and Ecodiesel

    Keep in mind that there is typically at least two or three different PIDS listed for the same one. You may be tagging one which is simply on/off such as the dummy gauge on the cluster (warning light on/warning light off). In this case, the gauge will read zero or null until the warning light...

    OBDLink MX+ and Ecodiesel

    I don't monitor O2 sensors. I had one go bad shortly after purchase of the truck and the CEL told me it was faulty. The dealer replaced the sensor, and all was fine again.

    Looking for recommendations from large dog owners

    That’s sharp looking and a much larger cover than mine. I’m going to give that a try as I see it also protects the side of the truck as the dog is getting in/out - something mine does not have and my dogs nails have a way of catching the sill plate and scratching it all up.

    Looking for recommendations from large dog owners

    We purchased the Plush Paws Cargo Liner XL to cover the seat in any configuration. It hooks to the head rests and drapes down over the seat and also covers the floor. Or, I can fold the seat up on which case it covers the entire bottom of the folded seat and allows for me to double it up on...

    Digital Rear View Mirror

    Not ever. It’s been crystal clear from day one. You might jump in the bed and take at look at the CHMSL to determine if you have a cracked or loose housing permitting water into it. You might also want to check the inside of the rear window to see if you have any signs of water and look at...

    Anyone have their windshield replaced yet? Decision!

    Agree, it certainly feels that way. Black Friday 2021 I was sitting out front with some friends who stopped by and they brought their two grandsons with them who is friends with my grandson. They are twin 6-year-old boys and my grandson is 7. They were throwing a small Nerf football...
