for a pure discussion of hydroplaning yes. and when comparing different tires, yes, the tread depth and design are most important for how the tire tread is able to evacuate water from between the road and vehicle to improve resistance to hydroplaning. The previous discussion was purely for how...

Good stuff. Much more detail than I remember from my engineering classes, and I was lazy and didn't bring the math into it. To add a little to what you're saying. Force = pressure X area or Pressure = F/A. so if your tires air pressure is constant then as the truck weight increases the...

There are a couple simple principles to keep in mind when doing the tire, lift, rear axle gear versus mpg discussion. 1. mpg is related to engine rpm (fuel usage). higher engine rpms use more fuel which equals lower mpg. i suspect this is more related to number of times each injector fires...

there were some people, way back in this thread, who got deals at kirkland cdjr. might be worth looking into, or maybe contacting those forum members to ask about their deal. otherwise you have to stick to the big boys mentioned on this forum; mark dodge, criswell, koons, lakeland all have...

This is the way. Cue Mandalorian music...

I think the southwest edition also comes with salsa.

@AdamChandler Just wanted to point out something. Those triangles at the front of the bed are braces for the sides due to the tail gate, and are part of the multi-function tailgate package (MFT). Apparently when you use barn door function the sides may flex so they added the bracing. Not...

I thought these groups were removed from lower trims but were available still on limited and longhorns. anyone have more recent information?

I'm in GA and have 70% on windshield. you can't really tell it's there and it really cuts down on heat. if you try it and don't like it, just pull it out.

I'm old enough to remember, but I can't remember salaries doubling in same time frame... hmmm.

I'm going by memory, but I want to say it's usually by end of May each year. You can look back through this thread for the model year changes. Order books tend to open by May-June for next model year. Exact dates may vary. I think the changeovers occur in July during summer shut downs.

Amazon pricing can fluctuate a lot. I suspect it is based on inventory levels. You can check prices and price history for items on Amazon using the website "camelcamelcamel.com". Just copy amazon URL for item into camelcamelcamel and you can see history. you can even set price alerts if...

Read the fine print, I seem to remember this was not stackable with certain offers. offers subject to change. not available on all vehicles... that type of stuff. which is why I didn't do it.

My current vehicle has Formula1 ceramic tint. Added it the summer I moved to GA (from NH). Wow, best thing I ever did to vehicle, and will be first thing I do to next vehicle (RAM). http://cdn.llumar.com/drupal/formula_one_auto_specs_sp1117.pdf Look over the energy rejection rates total...

For you, and anyone else new, just start at highest page number. Then read backwards. No need to see what deals were in 2019 (starting on page 1). The latest 10-20 pages should have most recent info, and the really informative posts usually get linked or referenced quite often. Happy Hunting.

These wheels are gorgeous. Love that concave look, thought they were 4plays at first. Love the look.

@SpeedyV I just test drove a air ride ram. It was smooth, but definitely floated around. kind of like how a boat tracks when going slow. little up/down and side/side motion. Does ORG tame this with the HD shocks, or did the hellwig cut down on the motion? Trying to test drive all the...

Might want to contact them and see if they will be a forum sponsor. Then we can start a new thread for best shipping deals.

Anyone else find it strange that those dyno charts were used for arguments sake, but all start at 3000rpm? When we're debating the benefits of 1500-2200rpm power ranges? Anyway, if there is a dyno chart for hemi out there that shows power at the relevant rev range I would be interested in...

select ram 1500 on the build page. there are then 3 years to choose from on the 1500 page. don't go to TRX build page. In below snip, 2020 year is highlighted. For some reason 2019 is still available, and you can see 2021 is there as well.
