    2019 Ram 1500 Quality

    Interesting info, thanks. In addition to what you describe, some extended warranties are setup to only come into effect after the OEM warranty expires. If you wanted 7 years of coverage and xx miles, you'd buy a 4 year plan. OEM warranty would apply for the first 3 years (or whatever it is) and...

    What is your oil pressure?

    Your pressure sounds fine to me; here's the 5.7 spec. I get into the 30's psi too in my Durango when fully warmed. The Pennzoil Synthetics, both Platinum and Ultra Platinum, are some of the best engine oils currently on the market. See BITOG.

    Coolant temps randomly jumping to 222-224 degrees in traffic?

    Knee jerk comment is modern engines are designed to run "hot"... but go ahead and burp your coolant as you may have trapped air; Hemi's can be finicky about that.

    2019 Ram 1500 Quality

    Maybe start looking into this now. Some extended warranties (all?) can only be purchased WHILE your original OEM warranty is still in effect.

    Is the Pentastar good for high mileage?

    The results in that Motortrend article are not generally representative. I really don't know what to make of it but in other vehicles that offer both Pentastar and Hemi, the V6 has noticeably better fuel economy.

    spare after new tires?

    Why mess around with a spare? Get a quality plug kit and air pump. Fuggedaboutit. Plugging a tire is easier than changing one and your truck loses 80 lbs.

    What have I got?

    The transmission... 8HP70 in the old versus 8HP75 in the new.

    "Touch the screen with two fingers; drag up and down to change the view angle" Does this not work for you?

    Cannot order a E-Torque with Sunroof and/or Off road group now

    Is removing the Ram skid plates a simple task? The fuel tank skidplate on my Durango shares the same bolts used by the fuel tank mounting straps. To remove the skidplate, you pretty much have to go through the steps of dropping the fuel tank... unless you can find a way to somehow jigger the...

    Do you like your MDS?

    If your MDS isn't smooth as butter and literally unnoticeable, something is wrong. Sorry to be the bearer of bad news.

    Getting Info

    I didn't think I'd like the red interior trim on the Rebel... until I saw it in person. It looks very nice in person!

    Excessive amount of recalls?? My truck is now at dealer, should I take delivery?

    I hear ya, AP. I'm a prospective buyer too and the same thoughts have crossed my mind. I'm not deterred though; here's the reason: there's likely over 500,000 2019's on the road now. 8,000 total members here. Not all have problems, but for fun let's say all 8,000 did. Let's double that and say...

    34's and 3.21

    I've read the discussions here too. The 3.92 fans have valid points but I think 3.21 with 34's will be fine... assuming you're ok with the tradeoffs. My Durango has 3.09 rear gears and identical tranny ratios. OEM tires are 30.4" but many upsize to 32" and don't complain. Btw I think...

    Procharger supercharger hemi 5.7

    Hmpf. I had the 2.8 liquid cooled on my 6.1 Hemi. Daily driver with lots of hard miles. No issues over many years.

    Magnaflow Catback

    Magnaflow use to sound awesome but something changed. It's not as crisp and doesn't have the same impact. It used to bath you in a deep aggressive rumble but doesn't seem to now.

    Navigation/Map scale?

    I'm not aware of that option. In my Durango I leave Android Auto running in the background. When I need to know distance, long-press the voice button on the steering wheel and the system directs your voice to Google: "How far to Jacksonville?". Response: "The distance from your current location...
