On a 3.6, consider a S&B intake, it will sound considerably better.

Yikes, I have none of that happening. Wonder if it is prone to some paints?

Sadly I don't think that is an option on the display :(

I think you answered your own question. If you determine reliability based primarily in issues against years in service and quantity, the Pentastar has been around decade (2011) in many vehicles and proven itself to be an insanely reliable V6. That said, it is old. But if reliability is your...

Wasn't that Ford rated at 24mpg? Seems like getting 20 was a greater loss than you're seeing on the Ram. How many miles on the Ram? I routinely get 17mpg+. And since you're seeing similar drops on both your vehicles, I think the driver's right foot may be the reason :)

Doesn't it say the average mpg is a bit over 17, with the high if you ever were only at highway speeds would be 21? Not surprising you never see 20.

Same here, currently getting right around 18mpg

Yup generally regardless of miles you should change it once a year. Per the 2025 manual: Under no circumstances should oil change intervals exceed 10,000 miles (16,000 km), 12 months or 350hours of engine run time, whichever comes first.

Don't worry about what % as much as you care about how many miles since the last change. If you tow a lot, change it around 5-7K. If you don't, change it around 7-10k. To answer your question, yes most likely an additional 1900 miles will bring that number to 0% - simple math you have probably...

I don't know, I've had it work on every street around my house and I don't live in a highly populated area. Also, it works on the Chesapeake Bay Bridge - that is 5 miles long - which surprised me.

You got a 3.6, none of those have 'balls' no matter what they are in, it's a 9 second to 60 motor..hell in a Jeep they get 6.5. You should have bought a used 2024 or 2023 used with a 5.7, especially if you're doing landscaping with it -towing beating and the crap out of the bed. Unless you wrote...

No. It is not necessary.

As others said, can't imagine you're getting a boosted 3.0 putting out 540hp to get better than 17-20mpg.

That is not normal. Disconnect your negative battery cable, give it a minute, reconnect it.

Without a doubt. Better to just save the money and buy an exhaust when available.

That would be true if the motor didn't have electric cooling after it turns off to cool the turbos. No reason to let the vehicle sit at rest, just turn it off.

Yup. Vehicles have issues.

Mine will hit a year in August, at my current rate I should be around 20,000 miles.

then definitely go with blue.

I hear ya, absolutely personal testaments carry a ton of weight. I get people's perceptions. https://carbuzz.com/cars/most-reliable-trucks/ https://cars.usnews.com/cars-trucks/advice/the-most-reliable-new-trucks-on-the-market?slide=18 But most reviews keep Ram pretty middle of the pack if not...
