    Ouch, truck just gone dead.

    FCA wouldn't remote kill a truck (if they even have that capability) unless it was reported to them as stolen. The fact that they have no record of you buying the truck (probably a simple error on the Dealer's part) is irrelevant. Why would they remote kill a truck that they think is sitting on...

    Headlights, 4WD, active air dam, oh my!

    For #2 are the LED headlights shaking independently of the rest of the car (that is, worse than), or are they shaking because, you know, the rest of the car is also shaking? You are not going to get perfectly smooth and level headlights when your car is driving over rough surfaces. The frotn of...

    2019 Rebel?

    You can still get a Hemi with the 3.21, just not on the Rebel trim.

    Fuel Economy emphasis

    You are looking at the wrong metric. What actually matters is gallons of gas used (and ultimately price we are paying for that) not “mpg”. If you drive 10,000 miles a year at 17 mpg you use 588 gallons (all numbers rounded) of gas. At 18 mpg you use 555 gallons... a 33 gallon improvement. At 30...

    Fuel Economy emphasis

    MPG is not a linear scale (which is its biggest weakness and why L/km is popular overseas and not km/L). Going from 17 to 18 mpg, for example, is actually a slightly better improvement than going from 30 mpg to 33 mpg. So yeah, getting only 1 more mpg may not seem impressive, but it is actually...

    Ram on fire?

    The shape of the taillights do not match the 5th gen ram. In the picture the leading edge of the taillights is vertical. On the Ram they angle forward going from top to bottom. That looks like an older truck, not a brand new one. Edit: I think it might be a Dakota.

    My 2019 Laramie Sport road trip review

    The Canadian sport is basically ( visually) the Laramie Black version, just available in different colors. All these packages are just a different collection of parts bin parts though. Sport hood used on Laramie sport and Rebel, black head/tail light housings from the Rebel/Black editions. Black...

    Laramie Level 1 vs Level 2

    I’m leery of the paint upcharges for now and going to wait to see if it is a build and price error. It is odd to me that red and white (bright white, not the ivory tricoat) are the free colors. Usually automakers do white, silver/grey, and a black as free. Also it is odd that they would decide...

    Ordered a Rebel

    US website still has the V6 for the Rebel. But who knows how it will turn up because the website has been all over the place. For a while the V6 was only available on the Quad Cab Rebel in the build and price tool, but I just checked and it is letting me build the V6 on the Crew cab again. The...
