    Lifetime Warranty?

    For consumers, probably. For FCA, I imagine it's the right move for a number of reasons: 1. People are keeping cars longer due to cost, and a lifetime warranty is another reason for them not to turn them over and buy new ones, hence keeping revenue down for FCA 2. The costs incurred by the...

    2019 RAM 1500 w/ torque LOW MPG

    I drove 3 eTorque Rebels berfore purchasing mine this past Monday. The first one was definitely a pre October build, as is mine. The other two were built in October. Mine and the first one both showed 13.5 avg MPG on the meter with minimal miles. The October builds both were over 15 mpg with...

    Anybody have a set of the black tubular side steps they don't want?

    The Mopar Black Tubular Side Steps Part #82215301AC: https://www.mopar.com/en-us/store/accessories/product/82212181AC/Black+Aluminum.html Are currently on national backorder with no date of resupply. I'm not enamored with the aftermarket options and I'd like to get a set of these. If anybody...

    Bed Liner on the bottom side --PICS--

    The area with the spot welds is something I definitely want to do something about. My Dakota developed rust in between the welds after a few years. It's really a bad spot and I don't know why they have not tried to address it after all these years. I might do what you did and coat it with a...

    Annoying Uconnect Glitches

    I got in today, started it up, and my screen was off. I turned up the fan, and it showed the climate fan icon on the screen, so it was actually on, but not showing anything. It showed up when I finally hit the on button and showed me the startup screen and then went to radio, where I had left...

    Fix it or leave well enough alone

    I'd at least wait a few weeks and see then if you still care. It looks pretty decent to me, and odds are it won't be the last blemish on the truck.

    Roll-up Tonneau for Rambox

    I need suggestions for a good soft roll-up cover for a crew cab with Rambox. There are so many to choose from. Does a soft cover need integrated cross rails? I see some models have them and others don't. I need something that can support a few inches of snow. Preferably a locking/latching...

    Where is my gear indicator?

    After I turned this on, I traveled maybe 150 yards and looked to see what gear I was in and I was already in 5th. The smoothness of this drivetrain is unbelievable. No perception whatsoever of the shifting that occurred. The only time I can tell is when I stomp the pedal, or the very faint...

    eTorque Conspiracy Theories!!!

    I took off my tinfoil hat and bought an eTorque yesterday. It is just too smooth not to have it. In the end I figured it's warrantied for 8 years so why not. Ram is putting these on a ton of trucks so even if there is an issue time will sort it out. I'd really love to know what the...

    Where is my gear indicator?

    Thanks guys, I'm all set! I'm surprised this isn't on by default.

    Where is my gear indicator?

    Somebody help me out, I can't seem to figure out where on the display I can get what gear I'm in. I've looked through the screen setup, and can't seem to spot it. Can somebody help me out?

    ...Time to talk about warranty

    I shall!!!! Against my better judgement I'm picking up a new eTorque Ram at 5PM today, so it's all suddenly relevant...

    ...Time to talk about warranty

    Can't we get this information directly from the Mopar warranty department? I'm not sure Mopar knows at this point what is covered and what isn't. Case in point - Ram doesn't call eTorque a hybrid. In its marketing stuff I heard it referred to as a "mild hybrid," but is it a hybrid or not...

    eTorque Conspiracy Theories!!!

    Then why rebate them if they are in high demand and exceeding selling expectations? The last thing you would discount is what is in demand. I'd expect to see a tow package rebate before an eTorque rebate...

    eTorque Conspiracy Theories!!!

    It's up on the ramtrucks.com rebates section. It may be model or region specific, but it showed up for me in SE PA. It's only until 11/26, so really weird in that it is only being offered for about 4 days.

    eTorque Conspiracy Theories!!!

    Does anybody know if eTorque Hemis are still not a build option? I know that at some point they were restricted, supposedly due to "supplier issues" or something like that. All the new trucks rolling onto dealer lots seem to be the regular Hemis. If new Hemi eTorques are still not being...

    Lifetime warranty - now extinct

    My wife's '15 Durango needed a new radiator at 39k miles! And you're on your third now? Not a good sign.

    600lb Tongue weight, how much squat?

    That's perfect, thanks!

    Price negotiated from MSRP

    Can you explain this a little better for me? Does this mean: 1. If you take no financing, you get $2500 in rebates (with eTorque)? Previously this was $1500? 2. If you take the 0%/36, you lose $500 in rebates and instead get $2000 (with eTorque)? 3. If you take no rebates, you can get 0% for...

    Differences in shifts - eTorque vs. Non?

    I'm actually trying to convince myself that it *IS* worth it, but I'm coming up short in doing that. I think it's a REALLY cool system, but not for the price or the complexity that it adds. If it was the same price as the regular Hemi I'd take it, and at some point I imagine it will be the...
