    4G Hotspot Isn't Working ---- Any advice?

    Dealer had the truck for a few days. they said there were no updates and they flashed the system anyway with the currently installed software. The hotspot does work again but for how long, no one knows. I'll just keep an eye on it I guess?

    Oil Catch Can on DT EcoDiesel?

    Heads up to northerners, catch cans separate out water which is good but water freezes so it will become something you need to check regularly if you are in below freezing environments. A frozen line blocking EVAP or the flow of air can throw codes or cause damage and keeping in mind you'll need...

    Newbie eco questions

    7500 miles in I love it. I think we’re averaging 24MPG but 20 when @ full pay load (not towing). I’m prepared to pay for the additional maintenace but I do all of my own service And have already bought he first 3 oil changes worth of parts needed. Still need to order some rear-dif fluid.

    2022 Total Numbers (ALL MODELS)

    Ceramic Coating by the dealership

    This is not my first anti-detailing post but I did want to share that snake-oil is not limited to dealerships. Ceramic Coatings are insanely cheap to manufacture and you can buy them white-label. Detailing tools have some cost but anyone with $2500 can go into business as a detailer. I'm...

    SiriusXM Guardian service renewal attempt...

    Until Insurance gives me $150 a year off my premium for having Guardian, no thanks. SiriusXM's business of exploiting customer data is HUGE at this point. They take our location data and sell it and so they're making $250 a year off Guardian + $60 a year on radio and then making money off my...

    DEF

    I'm not tracking mine closely but I'm also at about 1000 miles per gallon. I think I've put 7-8 gallons in my tank and I'm at 7500 miles. 2000 of that was at full payload.

    Backed into tree. New bumper?

    Yes, new bumper. Your bumper is steel and therefore hard to repair depending on how bad it was. Here's my experience...total cost ended up being $4500 and about 28 days to get all parts in. Not, I had a hole in my multi-function tailgate as well. so that increased the cost by a bunch.

    What was your interest rate when you financed your new ram?

    Good morning, In this case, I’d try 3-4 places and you can really do it all w/o any credit pulls at all. Keep in mind the ‘posted rates’ on these sites are prime scores so generally 740+ score but what you can do is call up these banks and ask them what the APR is for your score. Most are...

    What was your interest rate when you financed your new ram?

    Fico Auto is actually very good about that. They lump hard pulls of the same type of lender so if you do 3 auto hard pulls, it'll show on your Experian report but FICO's Auto Loan score won't ding you over it. https://www.rategenius.com/when-multiple-credit-inquires-count-as-one Don't go...

    What did you do to your Ram today???

    Window Tinting w/ Lumar Pinnacle on the back windows. Limited comes tinted so we added tint to it which brought us down to about 15%. Drive/passenger window received Lumar Air 80% which is not really detectable but blocks a lot of UV light and keeps some heat down. Total cost was $380. Nothing...

    What was your interest rate when you financed your new ram?

    Ordered from Mark Dodge in March and locked in 0% up to 72 months. Took delivery the first day of June, $62,000 on a $76,000 truck, 0% for 60 months or just at $1000 a month. I'd recommend anyone to join PenFed. Get the rebate via TruCar (backed by PenFed) and you'll win out by having access to...

    What did you do to your Ram today???

    Dashcam install is done. I decided to stop the install on the radar detector and order a blend mount and Escort wiring harness. the wiring harness will allow me to have a mute button within reach. "Do it right or do it twice" so I'll run the setup like this for now. The black box above my dash...
