    UCONNECT DOWN north america

    They weren’t hacked, just a server farm issue. Happens occasionally and no big deal, other than loosing cloud based services during that time.

    Help...am I overloading my new 2020 1500?

    Years ago (1997) Ford came out with a F250 light version. It had a 7700 GVWR, but for the most part it was a beefed up F150. Options such as factory airbags for the rear suspension was nice. I purchased one new, actually special ordered it because dealers weren’t stocking it. Only gripe I...

    Trailer pulling minor gripes, not complaints.

    Had the Ram for a year now, but Until I shipped it back to Colorado I hadn’t pulled a trailer until last weekend. Positive side, pulled exactly as I would have expected, didn’t even notice the trailer. The automated blind spot guesstimate was cool with the trailer. My 12 year old son knew...

    Unlocking phone shuts off speakers

    I had something happen last month, with your reminder now I need to test CarPlay again just to see. Think mine was volume would go to zero and wouldn’t adjust at all.

    Help...am I overloading my new 2020 1500?

    Don’t forget fuel. The 33 gallon tank adds 207 lbs when full. Personally I think the OP will be fine, but severely underestimating things with only 1500 lbs. I’d bet closer to 2200 lbs. As a private pilot dating back to the 90’s I take weight pretty seriously in an airplane, and I’ve...

    Who parks in the Garage?

    Colorado sun and hail makes a garage a requirement IMO. My Garage isn’t as long as I would like but the Ram fits fine. In a pinch I got four vehicles in the 3 car garage with a pending hail storm. Otherwise make sure your insurance is good.

    Just in case someone thought it was all fun and no work in Maui.😄

    Post pics of your Ram!

    It sucked, around 12.8 average. Between Lahaina and Kahului around 22. Good news is I really didn’t put that many miles on it and would often go 3 weeks without putting gas in it.

    What did you do to your Ram today???

    My Ram made it back to my Colorado home from Maui tonight. Wife and kids and I took it for a short drive, tomorrow it will get a well needed wash.

    Intermittent Key Fob Issue?

    I haven't had that happen yet with my Ram, but my wife says it happened a few times on her Subaru. I kind of figured some kind of interference, or maybe her purse was a little too far away or something... Being a boring typical guy, a key fob goes in my pocket and stays there, most of the...

    22" Limited - Running Premier LTX 114 Load - Versus Defender LTX 110 Load

    Before my father passed away we used to have debates about this. He was constantly outfitting his personal truck and most of our work trucks with the cheapest possible tire, which often had a lower load rating than factory. For one of our large trailers, that bit us pretty hard more than once...

    Extension doesn't fit in spare tire winch

    Funny you should mention this as I saw that specific accessory on Rams website yesterday and decided my 2019 Limited with the temporary spare on a steel wheel was pointless to have a lock.

    My 2 year experiment is over. RAM is dead to me. Going to FORD

    I’m convinced people saying you can’t treat a lease like a normal loan have never leased a vehicle. Having leased more than a dozen, it’s really nothing different than a normal specific to paying it off if desired. Simple and easy. No such thing as paying the remainder of all payments plus...

    Question for north east winter drivers

    I strongly advise against 4-Lo in icy/slick conditions. The less torque the better in those conditions. Having lived in the upper Midwest but now Colorado and having owned pickup trucks for over 30 years I can confidently say they do just fine with standard tires, not once in my life have I...

    It was around $2,500.

    What did you do to your Ram today???

    Correct on the barcodes, helps to fit in, which also means not driving a Wrangler or Mustang convertible. I keep trying to upload some cool photos of the Ram at the beach, but the second I do Chrome crashes on the iPhone.

    What did you do to your Ram today???

    If we ever get our act together it’s a great time to visit Hawaii. Zero crowds and zero traffic is awesome. I’m super active on FlyerTalk as I’ve been a frequent flyer for decades. Same advice, yank the barcode stickers from your rental. Same username, COSPILOT. Yes I’m a pilot, but just a...

    What did you do to your Ram today???

    Bought in Colorado, shipped it here, now shipping it back. Shipping isn’t cheap, but beats buying locally. Isn’t my first time doing this. Of all the expenses of living here car shipping is low on the list. Did you know Covid would wreck the economy in Maui like it has? Unless you have a...
