    What did you do to your Ram today???

    Most likely 28 foot; ~5000 dry weight. I guess small is a relative term lol.

    Installing Factory Trailer Brake Controller and DIY Software Update

    If I installed this on my own then took the truck in for the new recall which calls for flashing new software, would it be automatically added in that process, foregoing the need for the alpha obd or paying for dealer flash?

    What did you do to your Ram today???

    Is this all that's needed to install for trailer towing? I'm looking at getting a small trailer to tow and trying to figure out the cost of getting the Ram tow ready. What about the switch that goes on the dash?

    crosswind noise at hiway speeds

    Any details on what they did? I have both the "cracked window" noise at about 45+ and the "tea kettle" around 78 to 80 with a cross wind. Is there a TSB for either of these issues?

    "Car And Driver" long-term review, write-up

    The 12.0-inch Uconnect system continues to be plagued by general sluggishness, occasional reboots, and—this one is new for us—a backup-camera display that refuses to disappear long after you've pulled away in Drive. If anyone is having this issue, I can speak to it's cause and fix. I can...

    We Have Discovered A Major Issue With Our Long-Term Laramie Sport:

    This post and headline strikes me as overly alarmist seeing as this problem hasn't been duplicated by anyone.

    How are these trucks in heavy snow/blizzards?

    What tires are you running?

    Power Running Boards do not close consistently

    Add me to this list. I thought maybe I was occasionally hearing things but this about confirms it for me. I would absolutely buy into a start cycle/shift into gear early explanation. I "get in and go" very frequently, so that would make sense. I can all but confirm when I get in and shift...

    2019 Laramie Patriot Blue Sport 4x4 Crew

    Have the same truck with chrome rims. Can't decide between chrome or black tow hooks. Both seem to work well.

    Tailgate light bar

    One other thing. The are two disconnects (push tab in and pull from housing for each) for the tailgate underneath the bumper. Detaching those will let you take the tailgate module off (goes where the empty black rectangle above the WV emblem is). From that point, tailgate open at 45 degree...

    Tailgate light bar

    Did not hard wire so I have a one blink delay on turn signals and hazards. Thought it would bother me, but haven't thought once about it since installing. Here's a close up of the install for orientation/spacing on bumper if anyone is needing.

    Tailgate light bar

    Installed the triple redline with Curt 5 way harness today much like the previous account. I'll add a few small details. Used gardening shears to cut through plastic housing on extra provided pigtail from the lightbar to isolate the extra bullet. Wire nutted that wire end to the white wire on...

    Ram Care Equipped (TX only)

    It shows up as an extra warranty on my mopar.com site as well, but when I go to print the provisions, throws an error message. Also get an error message when I click the "Ram Care" link on my mopar.com site.

    *UPDATE* $250 Rebate on ALL New Rams

    I got two BonusDrive credit card apps in the 8 weeks between application and my check coming in. Only way I know that is both times I thought I was getting my check early! Other than that, no noticeable change.

    a/c kicked on by itself when raining...???

    Price negotiated from MSRP

    This thread was very beneficial to me, and I'm very appreciative. I was already aware of the June rebates, but seeing current (at the time) June discounts helped me gauge what I should expect the dealer to discount from their end. Allowed me to streamline my shopping process to focus on...
