I have a question related to the new eco diesels. I have a 2016 eco diesels and have just had a recurring issues that I am hoping was addressed in the new design. The issue: Right after the diesel emission recall was done and then the throttle response recall done. I was driving my normal...
looks nice, I have a BAK X2 on my 2016 and do enjoy it but just ordered a 2020 and looking at the BAK X4 or the realtrax pro and now may have to throw this one in the mix. I like the rollups, but had a tri-fold a long time ago and never had a retracting one - can see the benefits of all. How is...
I would agree on getting some of the other model options on the various levels. I like the longhorn but could not get the 6 passenger seating, I hate the center counsel as it is a knee banger for me (long legs and two knee surgeries and the knee bounces jut right on that counsel that I need a...
Looks like a great rig, I have both a Subaru outback and RAM 1500 Diesel, both have always taken me wherever I needed to go, in snow and ice the outback performed flawlessly and the low center of mass, smaller size actually made it seem more stable and able to negotiate those tight spots a...
I had it on my 2016 and did not renew, the 2020 will have the free trial but I agree the cost is too high for what you get and apparently not even the health report anymore. So less for more I guess. I use AAA and their app for an emergency, do not need the locate and the remote start is nice...
I wonder if a sensor is misaligned, I have the sensors on my 1500 and the B&W does not set them off, regardless if I have the balls stored under the bumper or fully extended and ready for a trailer. My hitch ball height positioning is about half way up the B&W hitch and I usually have the 2"...
I have the three ball setup on my 1500, fine I use the 2 inch the majority of time, I have used the 2 5/16 for a 7000 lb trailer, actually have never used the 1 7/8th though I once had a small boat trailer that had it. Like the versality of all three - I do love the hitch, looks good and height...
I usually replace the oem tires at the 30,000 mark, issues with alignments can vary but the first thing I do with a new vehicle is have the dealer, or someone that can, do a road force balance on the tires. Most OEM should be uniform but I have found issues with all tires at various times and...
I have it in my 2016 and will have it in the 2020 ordered but never had that issue but we seldom get those temperatures. I have had the system freeze on me, let it in the entry level for a week in an airport ramp when temperatures reached 20 degrees Fahrenheit below zero for a good part of the...
Curious on the elocker. I was told or read in a RAM manual that it should only be used at speeds grater than 20 miles per hour, not sure if mechanically they have an issue at higher speeds, a liability issue for RAM or tire wear (could be all of the above). They are great for some off-roading...
Driving is best, I like the bench as it gets rid of the center knee banger and have gone with that option in a 2016 and my 2020. I sat in both and could not really tell the difference in the actual seats but I may be missing something. I would miss the anti-spin differential in a 4x4, too...
Just ordered a 2020 eco with the 3.21 rear, factory order versus on the lot. I have the 3.55 in my 2016 but willing to give up a little tow power on the new one to gain MPG as my driving is mostly long commutes of about 150 miles round trip a day and my towing is weekends or occasional days...
I would agree with a lot of the posts, find a different dealer. I am loyal to my dealer and buy a lot of vehicles through them for one reason, we treat each other well. They provide me with test vehicles overnight to see what I like and don't like about the vehicle before buying. When in for...
I would agree with the rest, running a 2016 eco and no issue with the Def as I always fill it when it hit 1/2. Also not a big fan of the big rig pumps that dispense DEF, prefer to pick up the 2 1/2 gallon boxes. Sometimes I think the big pumps dispense it way too fast and may cause issues with...
From what I am hearing you should get better mileage from the new ECO diesel. I have a 2016 eco diesel and can average around 24 - pushes to almost 30 on trips in the summer and keeping it around 60 mph. Winter and highway speeds of 70 diminish the MPG. Just ordered a 2020 eco Diesel but...
I did a bit of research and found hot shot and Opti-lube were top rated. Hot shot in the summer works great and it seems (could be phycological) that I get a little more boost from it so I occasionally will add it. I do like Opi-lube year around for lubrication and most of the winter for the...
I use opti-lube and the last time I bough it they provided a nice 6 bottle case that contained 6 full bottles (I believe about 8-10 ounces). Each bottle is enough for a fill on my truck and I like it for the fuel stabilization in cold weather. I buy the gallon with the pump and just fill the...
I have a battery minder, a model 2012 . Basically I use it for a boat battery, plugged in all winter, it does the trickle, slow charge, disulfate (something like that) and monitors the temperature. Definitely a more expensive one but I needed it for all my batteries (truck, car, tractor, boat)...
Wish I could help, I tow that type of weight with my 1500 Diesel but never in that type of temperature - the highs are unusually in the 70s and 80s and I have not seen a big impact on the temperature of the coolant, transmission, oil. I do not get the towing package so not sure if that adds and...
