    What did you do to your Ram today???

    Yes, LED (actually called the "Premium Lighting Group") was an option on the Big Horn, but not cheap! As in $995. In theory, you can replace the halogens with LED, but the parts cost even more than the option at build time. They are also NOT plug and play, so you have some engineering and...

    Tonneau Cover for 2019 with RamBox

    Just a suggestion, but I'm thinking you might want to slope the added insulation away from the cover so that it forces any rain getting in that gap away from the bed. I already have my MX4, just waiting on my truck. :) Now I need to run out and get some Frost King insulation. Where did you get it?

    Detroit Three's lucrative pickup war intensifies as Ram makes big gains

    You know the spokesman had to say exactly that, and to say anything different would crater their sales. If he doesn't know better then he is just a CGI. You also have to expect that somewhere else at GM, designers are looking a the sales numbers and going "oh sh*t", and in a lab, they have one...

    Order Tracking

    According to Ram Chat, I'm still in D1 status today, but yet I was able to pull my build sheet and window sticker two days ago. Also, I got an e-mail from the dealer saying "in transit". Methinks that Ram Chat data is not in real time. So, from a glass half full perspective, if you are...

    Reflective Concepts hood decals

    Blue on black on blue looks awesome. I think I'll do the same. Thanks for prototyping for me. :)

    5th Gen Stock Stereo Upgrade Options?

    No, it looks like the connector for the door speakers. Be aware of polarity issues if this is an adapter. Some swapping of connector pins may be required. See previous posts on Metra connectors.

    Order Tracking

    Like Ripple, when I did my weekly status check this afternoon, in addition to the code, they gave me the number of days in that status - 013 (just slightly scary that they are allowing three digits in that number), and the ETA - N/A. I hope this is a trend so that we can get a more realistic...

    Tonneau Cover Leaks on 2019 Rams

    Patsy, if you think it is ethical, could you provide some measurements of the large block, so those of us who have other brands of covers could get a better seal? I'm guessing that is a piece of tractor trailer rear door seal.

    How to Remove 12" Screen - Fixed Brake Controller

    Thanks for the write up. Great info. I'm also installing a brake controller. Please let us know what happens when you go to the dealer to get the codes entered.

    Are these options worth it?

    Boy, I hate to be the turd that shows up at the Laramie Party but........be sure to factor in that the Laramie generally gets lower incentives than the Big Horn (although check to be sure because they seem to be constantly in flux). The big IF here is IF you need the near term gratification of...

    Katzkin installation

    Thanks. Good save. I was about to buy a bag of 100.

    Katzkin installation

    Great job. The pics are really helpful and are encouraging me to do it myself when I get my truck. Could you give me an idea of what non-standard tools/materials I will need (i.e. hog rings and hog ring pliers, etc.)?

    Condensation on front windshield

    Did the truck you looked at have a sunroof? If so, then the truck might have the dreaded drain hose detachment syndrome and the carpet is wet.

    For those that want to add the factory trailer brake controller...

    Just received my full set of parts from MoparSuperstore for $121.21 shipped. The module mounting bracket looks like it came out of their salt water spray testing jig, but for less than half of the cost of the "kit", I can break out the Rustoleum and not look back. This forum is awesome about...

    Tonneau Cover for 2019 with RamBox

    I'm interested in the BAK MX4 for a RAMBox. Please PM me also.

    Rambox bed divider/extender, officially no longer an extender

    I've been trying to order. Many sites show out of stock or discontinued. I got one order in, but got a response back that the parts are backordered and indefinite delivery. Somebody with a CNC mill could make some side money. Just sayin.....

    Proximity warning when trailer hooked up - need help

    If I remember correctly, the sensing is done on the electric brake activation line, which is only on the seven pin connector. I'm making a guess that it is looking for a resistance between there and ground. My RedArc controller only activates when I'm connected to the trailer via the seven pin...

    Price negotiated from MSRP

    Ha, I recognize the handwriting! That person is a straight shooter and that is a good deal. You might do better, but it will take a lot more work on your part. You will have to decide if it is worth the battle. IMHO.

    Price negotiated from MSRP

    Ended up ordering my 2019 Big Horn 4x4 Sport, since I couldn't find one in Blue Streak without a ton of unneeded features and/or unnecessary dealer adds (I can wield a ScotchGuard can as good as the next guy). Yeah, and I had to have a RAM Box. MSRP: 51,360 Dealer Discount...

    For those that want to add the factory trailer brake controller...

    Thanks so much for the info. I'm going to do this now rather than wait until towing season. One thing to note, you need to really watch the shipping prices when ordering on-line at the discount Mopar sites. First site I tried had great prices, but wanted $34 shipping (almost a third the cost...
