    Push button to shift into gear???

    Was the engine running when you shifted to neutral? And was one of your doors open, or not fully latched? It's a safety that's built in that wont let you roll the truck if a door is left open. It also wont let you roll the truck if the ignition is on, and you try to put it into neutral. You...

    Keep the 1500 or move onto a 2500?

    I'd love to jump to a cummins in a 2500, but for right now I can't justify it. I pull a 3,500lb boat ocassionaly throughout the year haha. I'm extremely happy with the 5.7 hemi, and for right now it's perfect for what I need. In my opinion, it would take a lot of fuel to make up the costs that...

    $$ Lessons Learned

    Glad it worked out for you! I would heed the warning on wheel spacers for trucks. They will work for little hondas, just save yourself the heartache. As far as longevity goes, obviously the OEM offset is the best, the farther you push them out, the more strain you will put on your front end. I...

    RAM Revolutionary... yet Problematic. Why does our favorite brand keep subjecting us to this?

    633,694 trucks were reported sold in 2019 by FCA, and according to the polls on our forums, 700ish people reported problems? Granted these are rough numbers, and the sales numbers do not include early 19 builds that were sold in 2018. And not all people who have had issues, probably have not...

    V6 on the new Ram

    I have the non etorque hemi with 35's, the mopar 2" lift, and 3.92 gearing. With winter fuel, I'm seeing on average 16.7mpg. During the summer, I routinely saw 18.5, and when the wind was just right... I even saw it break 19. My old 3.5l EcoBoost with a leveling kit and 33's got 15.5 -16Mpg...

    Took an angle grinder to my bumper

    What in the hank hill happened here!? Hahaha, can't say I would have done that. But hey! You actually take your truck offroad, and as long as your happy with it, who cares!! Theres definitely not many offroad bumper options available yet for our trucks. Happy wheeling !

    Installing "Raptor/ Rebel" Style grille

    It's so weird.... This pic really just made me want to copy you. LOL I really didn't know how raptor style lights were gonna look on our trucks, but damn they look good. How are the barricade bumpers working out for you?

    Help with rust from aftermarket parts..

    Oh man oh man oh man...... I'd be hot! I guess the guys at the body shop didnt care to read the very simple instructions that were provided in the box! But to answer your question, ditto on the stainless screws... you can also paint them if youd like.

    Factory Paint Blemishes: What Should I Ask To Be Done?

    Oh man! I'm sorry to hear about that. That's no fun, but I would definitely get it to the dealer as soon as you can. @RamCares is fabulous to talk too, and will definitely help you get the ball rolling. Send them a PM with everything you have. I'm sure they will respond here as well! Best of luck!

    Might be overthinking this.....

    If you ever end up trying to undo one of those clips, without completely destroying them... you would understand why you have nothing worry about

    Add Me to the List: Water Leaking

    I can also be added to the list. Dealer had my truck for a week, and per the service writer, the tech spent 7 hours water testing the truck. They narrowed it down to the third brake light, and replaced it. I get to pick it up tomorrow which is exciting. I also had a wet drivers side floorboard...

    Top Glove Box Light Stays On

    Mine was replaced at the dealer, and now thankfully my glove box latches as its supposed too. Really hammer home that it is a distraction at night when you are driving, and that it makes you uncomfortable. Because, that's the truth .. it's a distraction. Dont be afraid to get ram cares...

    Borla S-Type Self Install

    I was able to do my magnaflow system myself. I ended up cutting the factory exhaust on the drive side near the spare because I couldn't get it to pass through. Oh well

    Hypertech Speedometer Calibration?

    I used rough countrys calibrator. Put in the exact measurement as the tires sit while on the truck and it's dead on.

    35" and Eco Mode

    My truck came with the mopar 2" lift and 35" mud terrains... Awesome look! When I first had the truck, I was getting 15 to 16mpg(on the best of days, lol). So one day driving through a construction zone, they had a radar, and it dawned on me that my speedometer was off by 4-5mph.... I ordered...
