    What did you do to your Ram today???

    Have to bring this one back up to the front, just too gorgeous!!! Excellent work, that is near a perfect Ram right there...

    Do you house your Ram in a garage or outside?

    Ductless mini split and evaporative cooler. Depending on how dry it is I run the evap. It's more efficient, and on dry days it's very effective. The evaporative is great when you first pull your vehicles into the shop, too. You can also keep doors open and things stay cool. But of course...

    Do you house your Ram in a garage or outside?

    Air conditioned Mancave! I'm so crazy about keeping my vehicles out of the elements, unless I'm using them, I would go crazy if they sat out in the dirt, rain, etc. My truck stays on the West Coast AZ and San Diego, so it's not going to see salt weathered roads, no way. There are times I even...

    Issues after jump start

    It's not absurd, most people just don't understand new electronic systems vs. old ones. The new electronic systems rely on steady power and the CANbus systems will not operate correctly with inadequate power. There are airbags, antilock, electric steering, transmission control computer, engine...

    Air conditioning Hack

    Not true, I'm in the desert at 115 degrees all the time. With the AC hack I can have my super hot cab cooled down in no time - even if I just idle. Yes, I do have the panoramic roof, too. I've tested everything and put a video together I am going to upload to youtube. With the AC hack in...

    What did you do to your Ram today???

    Looks fantastic! Like to see a black emblem in the hood and black out the trim (but leave Ram on the side chrome).

    Air conditioning Hack

    Wouldn't something like this work for guys that are having weather changes and don't want to open the hood and adjust every day (which I don't blame them)? I know this is not a 5/8" but just for the idea. Let me know your thoughts...

    Dealer refuses to do PCM updates

    You guys have to remember that people come in for all kinds of knit picking and think a computer connection to the OBD is going to solve or improve their complaint. A lot of times a flash or update can make something else not perform correctly and now the dealership has a problem on their hands...

    Slight vibration

    Why would anyone set foot in a Walmart repair center for anything! I wouldn't take a $200 vehicle to that chit whole

    Trouble using voice recognition in the 12" Navigation systems

    It's a no brainer, the 12" is absolutely the nicest nav unit in the industry. Who cares about voice recognition anyway... The way that 12" fits in the dash and the other features you get a simply mind blowing. I also don't like all the big round knobs that are all bunched together in the 8"...

    Very Hot Shifter Knob

    Do you use a sun screen in your windshield?

    Shudder/shake from rear end at very slow speeds, typically while turning.

    When I read your post I thought I wrote it... What you describe is exactly what my truck is doing, down to every word. At first I thought maybe it was one of the clutches in the transmission, but like you said, when you straighten the steering wheel it goes away. I was going to take it to...

    Finally the Limited we all have been wanting!

    That's the exact truck I wanted to build and never thought they would offer it. Even down to the hood, on a Limited? Wow. Ram engineers and design team really does listen. The only thing I would add is black lug nuts. That truck cleaned up would be just so bad ***. Typical sales dude, "I...

    What did you do to your Ram today???

    Looks great, very clean...but need to remove the dealer decal on the tailgate (says Griffin' or something like that). It becomes the focal point because it's odd looking. Nice ride.

    Why so many black wheels?

    I like the stock Rebel wheels all blacked out (2020 Rebel wheels) the best. Even better than aftermarket wheels.

    Why so many black wheels?

    I'm old but I do not like chrome. At the same time I believe it's all how you put things together. I've seen some sick trucks that had some chrome but mostly dark or blacked out emblems and wheels. I love a completely blacked out truck at the same time. Most chrome now days is just too much and...

    Looking for advice on two options - sunroof and e-Torque

    First off, you're going to love either truck you choose, they are AWESOME! Having said that, do not get Etorque - it is a total waste of money and it will cost you in maintenance costs down the road. The battery alone is going to be expensive and if the electric motor goes out, wow. Anyway, this...

    Air conditioning Hack

    I don't know if you're just joking but the hack proves the new 1234yf is not the problem. I have the hack in my truck and where I live in California, when I go into the desert with temps of 115 degrees without the hack my AC blows 53 degrees...with the hack it blows 40 degrees almost instantly...

    What did you do to your Ram today???

    Not what I found; first year the AC went out in my Tundra. The second year my transmission was slipping, and got water in my taillight when it rained. Never liked the dull look of the interior, got poor MPG and no power at the same time. I had to turn off my AC at times due to lack of power...

    What did you do to your Ram today???

    You probably already know this but now they are offering the Rebel without the red interior
