    Michelin Defender LTX MS/2 - Best Tire?

    Same, and at 20K mine are shot too. I'm religious about rotation/balance and oil changes at 5K, and they've worn evenly. Just not a good truck tire, plain and simple. I've got nothing bad at all to say about the MS2's after years of running them on other vehicles, but these Continental's...

    Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice, shame on me. Lemon Ram PTSD. Input please.

    Our 2020 JGC does it if I don't line up the fuel door with the pump handle *just* right when I pull up to the pump. In our case, putting the nozzle in upside down is the workaround. Haven't had this issue with my Ram (yet), so we'll see.

    Correct. The other two I included to show the differences.

    2019 Limited Tire Choice 22"

    Michelin LTX M/S are hard to beat for every day, non serious offroad use. I had them on my previous F150, currently on my wife's Grand Cherokee, and on several vehicles through out the family over the years. Smooth, quiet, and outstanding all weather performance. My factory 22" Goodyears are...

    Car Play quit working

    Have you tried a reset of uconnect? Mine did something similar one time and that did the trick for me.

    Serious question. For those buying new, are you waiting for a leak or just going ahead and caulking everything?

    This. I'm subscribing to the "keep an eye on it" method and will address the leaks if they do occur.

    Truck started on its Own.

    I'd agree with this statement that the previous owner may still have access. When I sold my F150 to Carvana, they made no attempt at checking to make sure I removed the Ford Pass app from my phone at the time of sale (it was in the fine print that I was responsible for doing so however). I got...

    Price negotiated from MSRP

    I'll have to keep them in mind if I ever need any warranty or other service work done as you're certainly not the first person to recommend them. We bought my wife's Jeep from Hendrick in 2020 since they're close to us, but I have mixed feelings on their service group after they botched a simple...

    Price negotiated from MSRP

    I had a dealer try something similar with me back in 2022 when I was casually starting to look at Rams. I found one that was a 1 owner Laramie, CPO, and ticked almost all the boxes on the features. It was one of those "if I can get a good deal, i'll sacrifice a couple options" moments. Got...

    23 F150 Platinum to 24 Ram Limited

    Yeah, that's what I get for not doing a lot of research ahead of time. I needed a truck fairly quickly that year and grew up in a Ford family. When I was finally old enough and making enough money to afford my first F150, my blinders went on. The 5.0 towing figures were still pretty low for...

    23 F150 Platinum to 24 Ram Limited

    It's such a crap shoot on Ford's 10 speeds. Mine was absolute junk, but it was also the first year of them, and with a build date of October 2016 on a 2017 MY, it was one of the first (relatively speaking) to roll off the line, so I had all of the issues. '17 was also the first year of the 2nd...

    23 F150 Platinum to 24 Ram Limited

    Not quite apples to apples in terms of features, but I came from a ‘17 Lariat FX4 to a 22 Laramie with air suspension. The difference in ride with the air suspension is much smoother than any F150 set up (air suspension vs leaf springs). From what I remember, the springs are the same regardless...

    BELT BLOWN AT 9K Miles-URGENT READ

    That's interesting. Does that match what's in your owners manual? I just checked for my 22, and it doesn't call for replacement until 150K.

    What did you WITH your Ram this weekend

    You'll love the Tempest. I got one for Christmas 3 years ago and its pretty neat how well it works.

    Third brake light/cargo light lights flicking on and off randomly when truck is off.

    It looks like your dashboard and radio are powering on too. Check the back window and headliner areas for cracks/water leaks. I'd also unhook the battery as well.

    How big have you towed? w/Pics no tricks!

    If I had something that awesome, I’d be smoking just about any kind of food I could think of!

    How big have you towed? w/Pics no tricks!

    Im intrigued as well. My first guess is some kind of smoker based on the stack of wood on the trailer, but the propane tank on the other side is throwing me off. Edit: it would help if I read all the posts before commenting. Woops!

    Dead Truck

    Pretty well documented on here of that failure from water leaks. The three most common leaks are the back window, 3rd brake light, and the shark fin, with the window and brake light being the most common by far. If it's the window, it was just announced recently that the warranty has been...
