    Issue with Paint - scratches

    I do think this paint is very soft and easy to damage. I was checking my fender flares just as mentioned from another thread and noticed some scratches on mine ( I literally had it a month) and I do not live in salt/crappy areas. I live in dirt and some debri's, but not like stoney/pebble gravel...

    Towing 10,000 lbs with the with the 5.7 V8 - No E-Torque

    Speaking of Aisin and Cummins. Worked at both places. My dad is and has been their lead Chemist for 42 years, finally retiring. I used to work there as well, then worked at Aisin for a few years in multiple departments. Sorry, off topic but it's a small world

    Installed Westin Pro Traxx 4

    I personally think black fits that color better than chrome. That's just my opinion.

    Bad fuel mileage 5.7 hemi

    Yeah, I live along the highway. Eg, Highway traffic is built around the city (San Antonio) and I'm getting about 12-13mpg. Granted most of these trips are stop and go as I'm only on the highway about 1-2 miles for my commute to work. However, the claims of "19 combined" or like 18 city is just...

    has anyone use"Costco"buyer plan

    You can usually do better if you work directly with the dealer. These programs that are offered are middle of the ground scenarios. For example, I've tried both the USAA and the Costco pgrms and they're about the same in pricing, which was about $5K+ more than what I got my truck for by actually...

    Powerstep Installation

    What are the prices you all are paying? My dealer quoted me $1800 but not sure what brand they are (I assume Mopar) and he said it was "At his cost" - I call BS Ameraguard truck accessories quoted me $1800-$1900 for the AMP Power running boards. I'm not sure what version they are, but from what...

    First All Highway Tank

    In city. I get like 13mpg - however, my city is built around the highway traffic. Not very impressed with the gas mileage at 1100 miles.

    Front end clunk while turning - FIXED - TSB # 23-047-18

    So I watched the video on this thread and it didn't seem like the same thing. This is more or less like a bad shock or something similar where you get the creak/rattle/. like a rusty part for example. It's hard to explain. I may try to capture it on video, but it's hard to hear and reproduce. It...

    Transporting Dog

    I've got to figure something out for this tomorrow. I have about a 30 pound Pit/Collie mix that's coming with us to the beach (2 hour drive) for 3 days and I have 3 kids that will be filling up the back seats, so she'll have to be in the floor. I don't want her in the bed for safety reasons...

    Tint/ protection recommendations

    That looks nice. What was the cost if you don't mind me asking? Also, the price for your Line-X - We're similar in that I bought my truck wanting to do liner, tint and steps.

    Front end clunk while turning - FIXED - TSB # 23-047-18

    Are those systems sounding like just needing torqued, or replaced? Just curious I have about 1100 miles on it, doesn't sound like something that will "work its way out" but my dealer is 1.5 hours away, so not sure if I should just go to dealer here in town.

    Front end clunk while turning - FIXED - TSB # 23-047-18

    Getting a clunk in my truck. Build date of January or February of this year. It seemed to do it when it's colder out. First it was just like one time only during the night after running to the store. Then that next morning where it was only 30deg outside, it clunked down the road for a bit...

    What did you do to your Ram today???

    I washed and detailed "Black beauty" today. What is everyones thought on ceramic coatings? Are they worth it? Black is a hard puppy to keep clean. Here in Texas, the biggest debris we tend to kick up here are butterflies/bugs and dirt/dust. It does not snow here (lucky me)

    What did you do to your Ram today???

    I spent $140+ on detailing supplies to keep my "Black beauty" as black as I can. I've been watching this detailer on YouTube called Pan TheOrganizer and see great work he did with a Blacked out Silverado and a few other black vehicles and it inspired me. So I went out and bought a lot of the...

    Price negotiated from MSRP

    How familiar are you guys with trading in a recently bought truck for something better you spot on the market? So a truck that has all the options I originally wanted popped up at a competing dealership for about the same price OTD due to rebates/discounts/incentives even though it's about $5K...

    No More Laramie 4x4 Crew Cab 5'7" Bed with HEMI and NO ETORQUE

    I 2nd Nyle Maxwell. Here is how it works - By DEFAULT, ordered trucks will come with the E-Torque engine and you MUST request to have it without the E-Torque which started in January/February for the builds I believe. I was suprised as well and opted to not get the E-Torque, but they're still...
