    Whats this

    Look between the the tailgate and bed when the tailgate is down. If for some reason you removed the tailgate for a slide in camper for example you but this in.

    phone holder for the "Ram"

    I thought I wanted a mount when I first got the truck, but I’ve learned to just use the BT interface, even for texts. Most often the phone goes either in the storage area directly south of the cup holders, or I just set it in the armrest. Seems to never move and it’s almost impossible to drive...

    What do you dislike about your gen5 truck?

    Not really related to this thread, plus I’ve already given my ‘two cents’ earlier, but I’m likely moving back to the Springs from Maui. Curious if you have opinions of which Ram dealer is better? I purchased mine used at Red Noland and shipped it to Maui, and honestly the dealer here has been...

    Good article and nice looking truck!

    HELP! Garage Door Injury

    One thing I started doing years ago was raising the safety sensors of the garage door to bumper height instead of the 7” or so that they typically are. Now it’s impossible to accidentally shut the garage door on our vehicles. Yes, I know, pets and small children are at risk now...

    Questions about adding LaneSense

    I applaud the efforts some of you are doing and spending money to enable a feature that at best will make you look like a drunk driver if you let it do it’s thing. I play with it out of boredom once in a while, but that’s about it. I suppose it would be nice on I-70 or I-80 because both will...

    Dumb me, didn’t realize I could do that. Thanks for the tip!

    What do you dislike about your gen5 truck?

    Agree with others about not taking advantage of the 12” screen for the cameras. Also, at slow speeds moving forward when the front sensors start detecting things it should automatically turn on the front and surround view. Having to click backup, then surround view is dumb. Also, turn signal...

    Backup Camera Stuck while driving.

    Chrysler/Fiat must know. A friend manages the fleet of a big variety Dodge Chargers and Ram Trucks, and he brought it up last night. I haven’t had this problem though.

    Forward Collision Warning

    Now that I’m months into shutting down auto braking both forward and backward I couldn’t be happier. It still yells if it thinks I’ll do something stupid, but at least I’m in control now to decide what’s best. Wife’s Subaru has the same technology but unfortunately I have to shut it off each...

    Adding Adaptive Cruise Control

    To each their own, we have it on my wife’s Subaru and now my Ram. In both cases it’s not nearly as smooth as I am in typical traffic, and sometimes overreacts like my father-in-law. Knock on wood, but I average 35,000-50,000 miles per year in the last 32 years of driving, with no accidents...

    Adding Adaptive Cruise Control

    Most overrated feature in a vehicle ever offered unless you are asleep at the wheel. My Ram has it, as does a few other cars we have owned or currently own. It doesn’t react the way a good driver does. Cool gimmick like the self parking that I play with a few times, then forget and never use...

    Possibly looking into buying a Ram

    Yep the Hemi sounds better and I’ve had the pleasure of scaring the you know what out of my wife with some time in a Hellcat, but as she reminded me I’m not 18 anymore, I’m 48. I may be an average Joe scraping by, especially now with Covid, but it’s fun to have friends with fancy cars that...

    Possibly looking into buying a Ram

    I would argue that dealership experience is most important. Without going into every single detail, I’ve purchased 15 vehicles both new and used from a certain dealership group. I’m loyal to them and they are loyal to me. I’m sure I get special treatment once in a while, but they do well as...

    Diesel Fuel vs Aviation JP-4 Jet Fuel

    I’m just a boring private pilot and not even current at the moment. I seem to recall some differences but I wouldn’t chance it. With an old mid 70’s/80’s Diesel engine sure go ahead. Modern vehicles under warranty no way.

    Buying a new house. Will my truck fit?

    One word of caution for any Ram owner (or frankly any large truck) is to pay attention to angled driveways or entrances and exits to parking garages. If in doubt stick your head out is my motto. Length is easy but height you have to be careful with. I’ll have to measure my “real” entrance...

    Two different CD Players-Which one to order?

    If I didn’t think the electronics would freak out I’d sell you mine and buy your cubby. Do these come pre wired for stuff like this? I know my Land Rovers use to come prewired for just about everything, even items not available in the North America market, but no idea on Ram trucks.

    Matching up tint

    The previous owner of my 2019 must have picked a good product and a quality company as mine matches perfectly with the rest of the truck. It was a bank repo so calling him and asking who and what they used probably wouldn’t go well...

    Wild question lol

    I’m not critical, but why tease people for something so trivial? You created the suspense, not anyone responding. I’ve asked, and I think a few others as well. It’s a known fact that factory tint isn’t aftermarket window tint, you are possibly the first person that doesn’t want it and a few...

    Wild question lol

    I feel like this would be equivalent of being annoyed that I have heated seats and wanting them removed. OP really needs to explain why he would spend money to do this because I’m at a loss trying to figure this one out.
