No, just a working dude. I was going to fly home this evening but switched to tomorrow night.

Shipped my truck back to Colorado today from Maui. Might be the first time I’ve shipped a vehicle and didn’t put enough miles on it to even require an oil change. I’ll post some fun photos of its visit after I fly home. Betting my truck is the most well traveled Gen 5 on the planet, but...

Back in my Colorado construction days I always had one. I was fortunate to have a 10,000 sq/ft building for the times I didn’t need it, and a forklift with extensions to remove it by myself. Still haven’t decided if I will buy one, not because I don’t need one sometimes, but my wife questions...

Add me to the least, passenger me did this today. I deal with it once Its back on the mainland.

I appreciate the offer but I’ll stick with what I have and try harder to not be such a dumba$$.

I’m convinced the previous owner had some contact between the shark fin and maybe a garage door. You have to look hard, but there are visible marks and some gaps, hence not a warranty issue.

You guys have me nervous about the shark fin. Maui is in severe drought conditions on the leeward side, plus its garaged but we have very little rain and the few we have had it’s in the garage. While I didn’t realize it when I bought the truck, the seal has some gaps. I’m a pretty good...

I’ve had a few waves, Gen 5’s aren’t common here, the islands are Toyota obsessed. Back on the mainland, real LandRover owners wave, not the soccer mom or yuppie types though.

Admittedly yes. Will it go away?

Ironically I kind of wish I didn’t have this button. More than once I think I’m hitting the remote start and instead hit the tailgate button. That’s totally on me, but my fear is that I’ll someday when close to something behind or with some long load that hangs over. Again, I’m the idiot.

I have an occasional fluctuation in engine rpm at idle after start that started a few weeks ago. It goes away after about a minute or so, and doesn’t happen all the time. It doesn’t get cold here (Maui). I don’t drive it much, a tank of gas will last me a month easily. This began at about...

Going to war with Chrysler or frankly any manufacturer is always an uphill battle. I’ve done it twice, albeit once in 96 and again in 2002, both times with Chrysler... It took months and that was with the dealership on my side. I never involved attorneys or made threats. Cars/Trucks are not...

Try turning up the volume button on the phone. Doesn’t make sense I realize, but sometimes it makes a huge difference for me. It’s not a old fashioned audio out, your truck is now the headphones attached to your phone.

I don’t think that’s possible in the Ram when not using Navigation. Agree that would be a nice feature. I guess I would ask why not have the Nav screen showing after you have picked yourself a radio station?

I like it on single lane highways where I just want to relax and cruise, but with congested multi lane highways such as I-25 between Colorado Springs and Denver, ACC will definitely overreact and get you rear ended, or C-470, I-70, etc. I still play with it and even use it here on what few...

Body areas can be repaired, bumpers not so much. Work trucks I would fix on my own as they were work trucks, personal I simply replaced. Thick metal and chrome will never look the same. Never cared about the work trucks as employees do dumb things.

Yep. Restarting the truck and unplugging and then plugging it back in works for me. Not unique to Ram, I’ve experienced this with every manufacturer. Try going back to the airport at Newark, factory GPS takes a dump, my phone takes a dump, and your colleagues are so busy on sales calls we end...

Continue to get 11.6 mpg in town and around 21 on the highway. Nothing compared to the Ford Ecoboost, think I was 15 city and 25 highway.

Windows were already tinted when I bought it used. Mildly annoyed they didn’t remove some stickers from the drivers window and simply went over them. Didn’t realize the truck has double pain windows though.
