    Despite some flaws......

    Truck pulls my 20' boat easily, like it's not even there, so I bet you'll be pleasantly surprised pulling your 26' as well. Now I pulled the enclosed car hauler with the vette in it over the weekend. That it didn't like at all. That's why the F-250 Powerstroke is always on standby ;).

    Despite some flaws......

    I agree MJP on the quality control of these trucks. I'm dealing with severe brake noise, rattling head liner, grocery list of uconnect bugs, and even though dealer pretty much says I'm crazy and color blind the truck is two different colors. My first RAM and I love the styling and ride/drive of...

    New Recall Coming: Power Steering

    So truck was just at the dealer for oil change today, and I asked if they were going to take care of the recall on the power steering. They claimed they haven't heard of a recall for it, and don't have parts. Luckily I had printed out the recall that has the VIN on the printout and also had my...

    New Recall Coming: Power Steering

    So just called the dealer, have an appt Monday to look at the noisy brakes and change oil, asked if they could take care of the ground wire recall and get it tightened up. He told me they wont' have time but will schedule another appt. to bring it in for that. If these jokes can't tighten a...

    New Recall Coming: Power Steering

    Just checked my VIN, and the recall shows up. Luckily I have a appt for oil change and couple other things Monday so I'll have them add this to the to-do list. Can check your VIN for recalls at this link: NHTSA Recalls

    Anyone making the switch from and F-150 to a Ram Limited?

    I wish the RAM had the keypad entry also, I find myself out in the shop without the keyfob and need to get into the truck for something and have to go in the house and listen to the wife saying "Take your boots off!" Lol "Yes Dear!!" And agree 100% on the interior, and I NEVER thought I'd...

    Anyone making the switch from and F-150 to a Ram Limited?

    I drove Ford trucks for years, just traded my last F-150 Supercrew for the new LongHorn. We take my parents with us a lot of places, my wife and mother sit in the back and both say the RAM has more room (I keep driver seat way back) and for sure more comfortable seats and both like the...

    12” Uconnect Settings - Anyone know how to do this?

    I messed with this some last night, trying to get the 5 day instead of the current weather as the default display. Fairly certain there is no way to do this, but we can swipe the weather card to the side and get to the 5 day easily. Everyone else prolly already knew you could do that, I just...

    12” Uconnect Settings - Anyone know how to do this?

    I've not see a way to do this either, but I'm with you. The 5 day would be much more useful. I can see the current weather thru the windshield. :LOL:

    What did you do to your Ram today???

    Put some WeatherTech Flaps on yesterday, was going to put in the bed mat but they sent me a Bed Rug instead of the Impact mat I ordered. Got the Windows tinted last week. (Front Sides and Brow on Windshield last week, along with the Gator Tri-Fold Pro).

    2019 Folding Tonneau Cover: OEM vs BakFlip vs Gator

    19Jake, how are you getting along with the Gator tri-fold? I just got a Gator Tri-Fold Pro today, Got it installed but it didn't fit well at all. Am I missing the trick to get it to seal down good? How weatherproof is yours? Awesome looking truck by the way!!!

    What did you do to your Ram today???

    Thought I would share this, ran across it looking at other RAM accessories. I'm bad about cramming other keys, pocket knife, etc in with my key-fob. Thought this might protect it and it kind of matches my mountain brown interior. Came with the clip, supposed to be real leather, fits nice and...

    ECO mode, fuel saving mode not working

    Same here, if the green light wasn't on I'd have no idea. Until I found the setting in the Uconnect I didn't think it was working. And this is my first truck with any type of MDS, when I bought the truck I really thought I'd notice it.

    ECO mode, fuel saving mode not working

    I turned on the ECO indicator on mine Friday, I've seen it come on a few times around town and when coasting. Never seen come on when on the interstate yet, but I have the 3:21 gears, I suspect with 3:92 it would be able to get int ECO mode more often. ??? I turned 1000 miles today, will be...

    SiriusXM Problems

    Drove my truck twice today, one time it started playing the CD when I know for certain it was on Sirius when I had shut it off. Second time today, it played the Sirius preview channel for the first 3-4 minutes, then went to station I had it previously set to. I think they definitely have...

    3.21. vs 3.92 gear

    My F150 had the 5.0 V8. It got it's best mileage after 50,000 miles, when I traded for the new RAM it had 93,000. Pulling the same boat it would avg around 10 on interstate, and 13 or so on highways. (87 Octane) The new Ram was doing the numbers I posted earlier over the weekend with mid 50s...

    Panoramic Sunroof Headliner Noise

    Sounds like I'll be raiding the wife's craft room tonight searching for high density foam. Thanks Duane!

    Panoramic Sunroof Headliner Noise

    I know the feeling. Especially since this is my first RAM truck and have no idea what kind of service I'll get from the dealer. and it's an hour drive to the dealer I got the truck from.
