    2020 LIMITED BLACK GRILL

    Here's a link to the Night Edition Limited grille. Keep in mind you will need other parts if you want to get rid of the chrome on your Longhorn...

    Upgrading To A 33 Gal Tank On The New SST

    It seems that you're wanting to start up a philosophical discussion in a truck forum. Okay, I'll bite. From a legal standpoint, I do own my vehicle and my house. From a philosophical standpoint I own nothing because when I die I can't take anything with me. That's about as deep as I get...

    2020 LIMITED BLACK GRILL

    This thread was started in 2019. Back then it wasn’t easy to find a night edition grille. You can use any Limited Blackout or Night Edition grille from 2020 thru 2024 models.

    Hemi s Back

    I agree with you about 4WD, but racing from stop light to stop light is juvenile and honestly stupid. When someone pulls up next to me at a stop light I pretty much ignore them. Who cares who makes it to the next stop light first? I'm just trying to get home, or the store, or one of my...

    Hemi s Back

    My guess is that most of us have done that :ROFLMAO: Even though some aren't willing to admit it.

    Need some body damage advice.

    If this is at a stake pocket it's clear that you overloaded the bed or you didn't have it secured correctly. You may be able to cut the damage out and weld in new sheet metal to fix it but I'm not sure if that will weaken it. I'd take it to a body shop and talk about how they would fix it...

    Hemi s Back

    ^^This. Truth is, most people use a half ton truck as a car most of the time, and maybe occasionally tow a boat or small travel trailer. Maybe haul a load of mulch home for the garden. I'm in that category. And for that type of use either Hurricane variant should be a great engine. People...

    Ram resurrects Hemi engine - Can I get a swap?

    @silver billet is correct here. The 3rd gen Hemi was designed to use a billet cam but was overruled by the bean counters. People who have switched to aftermarket cams have not seen failures after switching.

    Ram back in NASCAR

    Thanks for your input. You seem to have missed the fact that I was agreeing with him.

    Ram back in NASCAR

    It’s about time. My only issue with this is that’s a regular cab truck. Ram no longer even makes a regular cab 1500. I’m wondering if they’ll finally be making one on the 5th gen platform? Ram was never in the Cup series and since Kuniskis is head of the Ram brand I don’t think he has a lot...

    Need some body damage advice.

    First thing first...please include your truck details when you make a thread in which you're asking for help. Your pic shows the damage but exactly where is this damage located?

    The HEMI V8 Is Back: 2026 Ram 1500 Brings Power and Choice

    Actually Tim Kuniskis called it that in his press release. https://www.pressreader.com/usa/detroit-free-press/20250607/281646786087213

    The HEMI V8 Is Back: 2026 Ram 1500 Brings Power and Choice

    The chart I posted showing costs came from Mark Dodge. Your chart has different costs listed. Just wondering where your chart is from?

    The HEMI V8 Is Back: 2026 Ram 1500 Brings Power and Choice

    You're misunderstanding. The Hemi is a $1200 upgrade from the 3.6L V6 Pentastar engine, not from the SO Hurricane. The SO Hurricane is actually a $1605 updrade from the Pentastar, so the Hemi is cheaper than the SO Hurricane. The thing that gets me is that the Hemi is a $0 upgrade for the...

    Very Dusty Bed

    Sounds like you might want to get something else for the times you want to haul luggage around and keep it clean. It's one of the reasons we bought our Grand Cherokee. The Ram is for times when I need to use a truck and the GC has taken over as the grocery getter/other uses.

    RAM Letters on tailgate

    If I'm being completely honest I wasn't a fan of the 5th gens when spy shots of them started showing up online. And according to several threads on other Ram truck forums there were a lot of people who shared that opinion. I owned a couple 4th gens and loved (still do) how they look. I really...

    Stellantis/FCA Vehicle Information Tool (unofficial)

    I didn't try an HD VIN. But then again this is a 5th gen Ram 1500 forum. It seems to work well for those from what little I've tried it.

    Nice improvement! I reported this thread and requested it be made a sticky. (y)

    Stellantis/FCA Vehicle Information Tool (unofficial)

    I think this is a really useful tool. You might want to contact a forum moderator to see about making it a sticky so it's not lost to oblivion.
