    RAM Power RunningBoards

    I just installed Raptor Series running boards (see my avatar pic). Very good build quality and good price for the quality. Even in northern IL you'll want aluminum instead of steel for rust prevention...

    F150 Owner Bought a Ram Limited.......Dissapointed.

    Towing 9k for more than a few miles you should be in a HD, doesn't matter the brand. You also have less payload the higher trim you go (all brands) because they are heavier. You bought the wrong model of truck. If you want to push a 1500 you could wait for the Hurricane engine (twin turbo V6)...

    2023 laramie

    They keep cutting stuff I might be looking at Chevy next. Fender flares not standard on Laramie anymore, really RAM?

    ETorque Issue

    Not a fan of the ET anyway, this thread will ensure I get rid of it before 80k miles. That is about 6 years and am only 2.5 years in. Would love to just convert over to non-ET.

    New to Etorque

    If the hurricane doesn't have non-ET as an option, I really hope GM doesn't still have direct injection only (dual injection is OK). Otherwise I might be looking for a used 2022 non-ET hemi in a few years. Anyone know if the Wagoneer has non-ET as an option? I think they are already using the...

    New to Etorque

    I have a 2020 and don't like the et. The regen braking feeling sucks. I was going to maybe get a 2024 but not now without regular hemi as an option. If the hurricane doesn't come without et as an option I will be looking at chevy with their new v8.

    Happy STEPtember! Very special deal on N-Fab and Go Rhino steps

    I spent $323 on a pair of their house brand (Ionic) running boards about 27 months ago. They were supposed to be "marine grade" stainless steel with a lifetime warranty but started to rust after only a couple months. Even using chrome polish didn't get all the rust off. I went to make a warranty...

    Washer fluid type

    I emailed the manufacturer for the Peak all-in-one and they said they are unaware of any issues with this fluid for tank sensors or auto wiper sensors. It has 3 ingredients and 1 is water so hopefully it won't mess anything up. I bought 6 jugs for $2.79 (reg $5.99). Should last a few years.

    Washer fluid type

    I know Rain X washer fluid is known for causing the washer fluid tank sensor to go bad. 1. Is this still a problem? 2. Any known issues with Peak all-in-one (it contains a Rain-X type repellant)...

    New tradesman vs low mile bighorn? What would you do

    Did you price out a Big Horn, even with just level 1 equipment group? BH usually have better incentives than Tradesman, making up some of the price difference

    Water stain... third brake light

    Just did this on my dad's new 2022. Kept the top gasket that is now included on 2021+, but switched out the main gasket. Went smoother this time than when I did my 2020 almost two years ago, but still took a long time to get all the old glue off.

    Perfect truck no issues

    No major issues with my 2020 Laramie, 21k and 23 months. Just a couple very minor warranty claims that were more preference than necessary. And the RAM dealer here is very good for service. Still wish I didn't have etorque, but not worth the $$$ to switch out for at least a couple more years.

    Going from etorque to alternator

    Maybe it would require just z reprogram, wiring harness, and alternator and belt? Not sure what else there is that is part of the system.

    Going from etorque to alternator

    Anyone switched an etorque hemi to an alternator? Wondering what is all involved and cost?

    Rear differential fill

    These are splash lubricated. If there is a little bit draining out the top, vs being 5mm below, it is fine. Low is more of a problem.

    Daily family use ,no towing, do I need E-torque

    What TSB? I know they reprogrammed the etorque activation for 22 MY.

    Insurance rates

    AmFam and AAA were close to Acuity for me, about $100 more total (two autos and two drivers, home, boat, umbrella). Acuity has better policy conditions, though. Some others (AF, Geico, AAA) were less on auto but almost double on home. Acuity gives a huge discount on home if you bundle with auto.

    Insurance rates

    If you have Am Fam you are in WI? Try Acuity. I have had them 5 years. Just shopped around a couple months ago at my policy renewal (3 agents covering 50 companies probably, including AF) and still the cheapest, and they have great customer service and claims service. They are a little more...
