    What did you do to your Ram today???

    After the ceramic coating I use a product called Reload from Carpro CARPRO | Reload Inorganic Spray Sealant 2.0. It puts back the glossy shine and slickness to them nasty bugs just fly off the paint.... I just wash the truck then spray it on and wipe it off to see my ugly mug once again...

    What did you do to your Ram today???

    You are right about the coat, it is only good for making the removal of bugs easier and prevents from small scratches reaching the color layer of the paint. Also helps the removal of road tar.

    Ram 1500 orders - Tell Us About Yours!

    Just thinking ahead and reading my window sticker I see 39% of the truck was sourced from Mexico with 55% sourced from U.S./Canada. With our new president wanting to implement tariffs of imported goods it might be wise to place an order and lock in a price before the tariffs get implemented...

    2025 drop in bed liners

    I am looking for a 1 piece drop in bed liner like Mopar makes Part # 82215214AE but there seems to be a disconnect between website ordering and getting it delivered to dealer for free shipping. The local dealers are telling me that they can only order 10 at a time and have no place to store...

    2025 Ram 1500 Order Updates

    My dealer said that the highest incentive(s) that were introduced between the time I placed my order to when I pay for the truck is what I will be receiving. Has anybody actually had that happen to them or is it just some sales B.S.???

    Delivery Checklist

    Nice list, thanks. After reading about all the issues with dead batteries it might be good to add onto the list to check the battery current with a clamp meter like Klein CL390. After you open the hood, close all the doors, turn off all electronics, engine off and get the fobs far away so they...
