    Steering no return to center (left turns)

    Mines going back in Thursday. The cleaning of grounds didn't work. It's now doing it more often than not at any speed above 25mph

    Hemi w/ eTorque - power mods? Underpowered as stock.

    vararam has pretty well documented improvements in 1/4 mile times on the 4th gens. generally 3-4 tenths.

    Rebel Owners: Fuel Economy After Swapping Tires?

    20" wheels will weigh more as well. Probably another 5-10 lbs per wheel.

    Which would be more beneficial for towing a travel trailer?

    It's a whole lot easier to add helper bags than regear. Also if you think you'll be close on weight don't risk the fine for being above your weight rating

    Air suspension or not

    The trucks are still new. Give it a couple years to get some condensation in the system. They'll start failing, just like literally every other air suspension equipped vehicle. The reports of 4th gens failing during the polar vortex were endless and more frequent the older the truck. I wasn't...

    Air suspension or not

    if you live in a colder climate i would stay away. It's an unreliable system below freezing. only value in it that i see is if you load your bed down with 1000lb's on the regular. If you do that and you live in a cold climate i'd go aftermarket helper bags.

    12" Good Idea

    get it. Its the main feature i wish i had. If down the road you decide you don't like it i'm sure plenty of us would be glad to swap our 8.4's out with you haha There were no rebel 12's to be found when i got mine.

    Software updates = better MPG?

    if they apply to your vehicle the dealer will do them as RRT(rapid response transmital) update/flash to your truck. They should perform any RRT that matches your vin anytime your truck comes in for service. I believe they only apply to e-torque equipped vehicles. mine took some time to overall...

    Horrific Gas Mileage Hemi eTorque

    I run costco 93 regularly. i had been doing half a tank of 87 half 93, since they don't offer 89. but i found 93 seemed to be netting better MPG. I certainly believe in top tier gas. i wasn't aware there were issues with sams club gas. it's a pretty rare occasion i don't fill up at costco...

    Horrific Gas Mileage Hemi eTorque

    I'd say mine is improving. I'm now about 500 miles after the RRT. This is driving from Hilton Head, SC to Wilmington, NC. All flat low elevation. 89 octane from Sam's club. My mpg concerns are gone.

    Steering no return to center (left turns)

    Mine is doing it. It takes me about an hour of highway driving to start acting up. I took it in and they cleaned some grounds. I thought it was fixed but I just took a 3 hour drive and it's definitely not.

    Oil change

    There is no official or correct recommendation other than what makes you comfortable. I did mine at 2k. There was clearly some metal sediment in the filter and some shimmer in the bottom of the oil. Take from that what you will. I have no regrets

    Dealership not offering Mopar coupon oils change

    The coupon has a few stipulations. Also The essential care 4 oil changes/2 years 115$ says it only includes 5 quarts as well. Just some observations. I was considering paying to have it done for the maintenance records but they we're talking a 40$ upcharge per change for synthetic. Nope

    Remote start battery voltage

    Just checked with a a multi meter. When remote started even though my dash says 12.0v the battery was at 14.2v. its just a display issue.

    Remote start battery voltage

    I haven't paid attention but this is definitely concerning. If it is really the case then these 12v batteries will be lucky to last a year. Especially in cold climates.

    Smaller than a ranger

    couldn't have said it better myself. a truck based on a focus? might as well be a prius....

    Carven, Etorq, No Fitment, Bad Cust Service

    @Carven Exhaust care to share why your exhaust differs from all other cat backs, in that it's not compatible with e-torque? Also why is this not stated on your site? This seems like it would open up a situation that would cause massive customer dissatisfaction...

    Carven, Etorq, No Fitment, Bad Cust Service

    I have a feeling the op was sent the wrong exhaust and they're blaming it on etroque... I have trouble believing swapping the alternator for the MGU on the same engine would warrant a different exhaust.

    Carven, Etorq, No Fitment, Bad Cust Service

    Has anyone else heard of the e-torque using different exhaust? That seems strange to me...
