    RamBox (only) Tonneau

    Are the rails easy to move out if you need the extra bed width every once in a while?

    Any downside to ordering the Ramboxes on a Rebel?

    Outlander? Do you also need 6'4" bed? Always wondered about this. I went with Rambox this time, and although I haven't loaded my grizzly 700 with custom tire wheels it has been my main concern is with the bed rails. I'm going to have about a half inch on either side. Other than this the...

    Lease, Finance or Own.

    Getting new cars often is not cheap option regardless if you are leasing or buying. Some people don't realize how expensive it is unless they do a deeper dive into the numbers. Getting a loaded truck is not a cheap option either. Then there is the safety argument that I used to talk myself...

    I got the BUG per my signature. No step included with the BUG either (I am not alone)

    Lease, Finance or Own.

    Who said that leasing = getting ripped off? I mentioned that some people get ripped off, but that was due to the complex structure of the pricing (MF, depreciation rates, fees, mileage, etc). I used the word ripoff, but in a different context. Not sure if that was directed at me or not. I...

    Lease, Finance or Own.

    Income/debt/new worth, personal vs business and time horizon play a big part of buy vs lease decision. There are plenty of people that end up getting ripped off with leases because they don't understand the math or financing and are dazzled by a lower monthly payment. I guess the same thing...

    Lease, Finance or Own.

    I leased my first two Rams. It was my way of convincing my wife that a crew cab truck would work well for our younger family/dog, etc. She loves it now. Our second leased Ram was a result of me trying to time with the new model coming out. When leasing, we stuck with an Express the first...

    Horrific Gas Mileage Hemi eTorque

    Thanks for pointing this out. I updated my fuelly to etorque. I'm getting 15mpg with 2k miles on the truck. Filled up this morning. My remote start would not even work because fuel was too low. My stated range on the dash was ~20 miles, yet I was only able to get in 28 gallons into my 33...

    RamBox (only) Tonneau

    Good info. I need to somehow have the ability to load a 48" wide ATV into the bed when I go on solo trips. I'm cutting it close, might not even work. So if someone does not order the BUG, can they not have a BakFlip installed?

    Long lasting Ram?

    Long lasting Ram?

    The 5.7L Hemi has been around a while. The tranny is new this year. Would be interesting to hear people with trucks that are 10 years old and have the 5.7L engine. This is my third truck with the 5.7L, but I have only had about 25k on my other trucks (leases). I thought about going with a...

    eTorque 5.7 Light Braking Feel?

    No, I wish I could increase the Regen. I don't notice it. One pedal driving is great once you are used to it.

    Blacked out Tailgate (Rams Head) and Hood (1500 HEMI) Badges

    Blacked out Tailgate (Rams Head) and Hood (1500 HEMI) Badges

    Another option is several coats of plastidip. I did the ram head, lettering and the tailgate handle. I'm no fan of chrome...
