    The Stellantis Hurricane Is a 500-Plus-HP Straight-Six Hemi Replacement

    The VW DI engines are terrible for carbon buildup, but some designs are better than others. My wife's Honda V6 is DI and I just did the timing belt service on it. Looked at the intake valves and was shocked at the lack of buildup. Haven't run a catch can on it for it's entire life so far. So...

    The best rear axle ratio for me

    My suggestion when you're buying a $50k+ V8 truck is not to worry about MPGs and get something that suits your needs the best. So to reiterate what I said above, if you tow at all you'll be much happier with the 3.92. MDS is usually never on unless you are going below 60 mph without a trailer...

    The best rear axle ratio for me

    If you tow at all I'd recommend the 3.92.

    Transmission falling out of Drive on downshift, blinking, displaying "shift to P" and back

    Funny thing is the Tundra is more "American" than any of the full sized RAM, GM, or Ford trucks being manufactured right now.

    Keyless entry question

    This gets a lot of new Big Horn / Lone Star owners. Keyless just means you aren't physically putting a key into the door to unlock. The feature you are looking for is passive entry. You can add it if you are mechanically and electrically competent, otherwise it only comes in Laramie and up trims.

    Auto Start/Stop error

    Was it supposed to come with a trailer brake controller? Also, that makes no sense. The brake controller has nothing to do with the start/stop system.

    Rear window surround crack.

    I work in aerospace so I'm spoiled by more stringent component lot acceptance requirements and our manufacturing work instructions have a lot of cross-functional input between engineering/manufacturing (and I would know damn well exactly what glue the line techs are using). Even when I worked...

    Rear window surround crack.

    If this is true Stellantis/FCA/WhateverTheyAreCalledNow works opposite of every integrator I have ever worked for. Usually the systems integrator sets the engineering requirements, not the other way around like you just noted here. What an *** backwards way of doing business.... (Granted, this...

    Best Dash Cam

    Other than the BBMC customer support issue this all sounds like user error. I have none of these problems between my two DR750x units. Sandisc works fine in both of my cameras as well. Also, I've reformatted an SD card after using it for a Blackvue, works fine.

    Oil Change Intervals

    That dealer just sounds like garbage. The free oil changes are covered through MOPAR, not out of the dealer's pocket.

    Oil Change Intervals

    Nope, nobody tries to sell me anything. Some dealers are better than others.

    Oil Change Intervals

    That hasn't been my experience. They even throw in Pennzoil Platinum without fussing at my dealer.

    Oil Change Intervals

    ****, that reminds me. I'm due for my first blinker fluid change.

    Rear window surround crack.

    yea this doesn't make sense.... Also, the etorque components should be covered under the 8 year emissions warranty. The part failed due to a defect elsewhere in the truck, nothing should be coming out of pocket IMO.

    Oil change

    https://www.amazon.com/Total-184952-5QT-Quartz-Energy-Engine/dp/B00NFFE7PG?th=1 https://www.amazon.com/Pennzoil-Platinum-Synthetic-5W-40-1-Quart/dp/B00JMCCBRW?th=1 Both are suitable for the ED and carry the required approvals.

    Extended Warranties

    Yea my dealer actually beat the Ziegler quote. They get bonuses for overall warranties sold, and it's basically no work on their part. I paid cash for the warranty, didn't care to worry about financing it.

    87 vs 89 vs 93 (again)

    It is my personal belief ethanol requirements are more there to keep corn farmers afloat rather than any real environmental concerns.

    Extended Warranties

    Zeigler usually has the best rates. You can print those out and try to have your dealer match them.

    Could this be what the Uconnect 5 manual is talking about?
