    Add another windshield crack

    Sorry, didn't specify the speculation is around the additional weight caused by the glass and hardware... way more than the "floppy metal roof".

    Picked up Limited off lot with mold - need thoughts

    Don't cave, stay strong, they're not going to fool anyone. @RamCares should be involved for added documentation.

    Add another windshield crack

    There is way more chance of flex in the "A" pillar of a Pano truck. And since this is the first generation of this system, good chance the engineers may have missed a pinch point on the windshield. It's extremely speculative, but common sense keeps kicking me in the nuts saying "it can't be just...

    Add another windshield crack

    This isn't just coincidence, I'm convinced. There is a direct connection to cracked windshields and the Pano roof. Too bad we all got hit with our deductible and had to use insurance... I'm sure there is some BS loophole Ram/FCA is using to avoid a recall.

    Black Plastics Fading

    I have on occasion used Armor-All after the car wash on all the black bits of my Rebel... seems to keep them "fresh".

    Need some Tazer DT help!

    What's your firmware version? The latest firmware changes some button configs.

    Need advice, upgrading my 2016 Rebel

    Go no air, get nice running boards. I have a 6 and 8 year old and they have no problems getting in and out. If you're in a cold climate, you dodge that bullet too.

    Add another windshield crack

    Where did it start? Near the grab handle on the passenger side?

    Leveled rebel???

    I don't know of anyone here that went more than an inch without changing the uppers. Also a good chance if you're doing it yourself and you don't have experience separating ball joints, you'll likely mangle them and need to replace them anyway.

    Uconnect update

    It doesn't matter if you're on the DIY Uconnect page or the DealerConnect site (what techs use), if the VIN doesn't match or isn't tagged by FCA, you won't see an update. I've had a service manager in my truck when the screen went blue in reverse... he shrugged his shoulders when my VIN didn't...

    Air Suspension Reliability?

    Couldn't agree more. Why FCA doesn't have EVERY option available on their flagship trim level is mind-blowing. A Limited shouldn't be "limited". Sincerely, best of luck to you @Jordan3206 .

    Air Suspension Reliability?

    Ok, I see what you're trying to say, but you're still implying the changes were related to the cold issue... they weren't. They switched to cheaper, more weight reducing parts that will probably make the problem worse. But only time will tell, you and I can argue semantics till we're blue in the...

    Air Suspension Reliability?

    Oh, there's a lot of stories, complaints, DIY farmer fixes... I've seen them all. My challenge to @Jordan3206 is to find me anyone from FCA that will put "cold" and "air ride reliability" in the same sentence. He's looking for the proverbial unicorn.

    Uconnect update

    I hope someone does... for your sake. FCA has the worst update/software system on the planet. If for some godforsaken reason your VIN isn't tagged for the update, it won't show up for the tech and he's forced to advise no update available. It's insanity. He'd have to find a VIN thay qualifies...

    Leveled rebel???

    Sure. Probably with issues though. Rebel already has 1" longer Bilstein struts, so you'll be over the natural limits of the upper ball joint at 3" and the UCA will probably knock against the spring in aggressive driving. You can always try and see... add the new UCA after.

    Air Suspension Reliability?

    Nobody from FCA has ever made an official statement regarding cold weather issues on Ram air ride. If and when you can provide a link to a document or video describing the official cold weather fix from FCA, I'll eat my words. Until then, you remain incorrect and ignorant to the issue. Nothing...

    Changed Dash Speakers To Kickers...WOW!

    This is 1000% how I felt. I think there was a overwhelming sense of "different" sound, that it was overload. After a few days of playing different music and sources I appreciated the wider range of adjustment and clarity.

    2.5" MOTOFAB LEVELING KIT! PICS!

    Measure the distance from center of wheel to underside of fender front and rear... the difference in measurement is the size of kit you buy.

    TAZER DT for 2019 RAM 1500

    I'd also like to know what, if any changes were made, so I can decide if I need to update. It's working flawlessly for me now, so I'm hesitant to update if not needed.
