    tonneau covers that work with the multifunction tailgate?

    You could look up the torque for the bolt size but I'll guess that because the original brackets are composite that the threads in the box are possibly not designed for seriously high torque. IIWM, I'd add a little blue locktite to the bolts and just tighten them to a comfortable level. It's...

    Suggested Aftermarket Running Boards & Bedliner?

    I like the fixed board, just my personal preference, but they keep the fartcar doors away in parking lots as a plus. These are the factory installed version.

    Get tow mirrors or not on new truck?

    Which ever you chose, be sure they are power folding not manual. Well worth the money.

    Father son projects

    If you look where the clips that hold the spat go up through the metal fender you will see the clips have a set of ears that holds them in place. Squeeze the ears with a set of needle nose pliers and the whole spat assembly will drop out. It can be easily reinstalled by pushing the assembly back...

    Extended Warranty Options (FCA vs Other)

    Make life simple and get a quote through Ziegler on the factory warranty of your choice for years and miles. Use the code payinfull for a further discount. Remember the warranty (service contract) starts at the start of your factory warranty so eight years is really 5 additional. These folks are...

    Extended Warranty Options (FCA vs Other)

    Because they make more money on it. The dealer I bought my 19 Laramie from only wanted to talk about the third party warranty they offered and wouldn't give me a price on the Mopar one. They wanted $4800 for the third party and I bought a similar one 8/125 $200 ded from another Ram dealer for...

    Leaking sunroof on 2020 Limited

    Take it to the dealer for repair. My 19 with sunroof goes through a high pressure wash with no leaks at least twice a week.

    Wind Noise

    3M blue works great. That's how I tracked down my sunroof noise, told the dealer what I found and they fixed it.

    Price negotiated from MSRP

    If you want to keep the costs down, pay all but $500 with the first payment and then $100/mo for the remaining 5 months.

    Ratcheting Cargo Bars

    Bought a pair from Walmart a couple years back. About $20 each and they work very well. I believe they are Reese brand.

    Disappointed with Harmon Kardon sound

    I guess it depends on possibly the luck of the draw or also more likely the music quality. I took a previous posters advice and started "Gypsy" at flat levels and ended up at -6 Bass, +1 Mid, +3 treble. I'm using Amazon HD music with the AT&T wifi in the truck with a Pixel 2 phone through the...

    What Causes Alarm to Go Off?

    Same thing here. It can be activated by my keys in my pocket occasionally. Pressing the panic button shuts it off. The fob has considerable range at times to make this happen.

    Tri-fold cover

    One of my criteria for a tri-fold was for it to leave as much room available with the cover up as possible. That way there was no need to remove it if I carried large objects. That actually lead to basically a quad-fold with the three sections folding up with a few inches of the cab. I picked...

    SirusXM Lifetime Subscribers

    Not all, mine is still the Premier pkg I bought many moons back. It has the ability to stream and listen just like the current all access on my 19 Ram.

    Swing case

    I had one in my 14 Sport to carry the tools, light and other items I keep in the truck. I was going to put one in my 19 Laramie until I saw the space available under the rear seat with the expanded storage. Everything I carried in the 14 fits under the seat in the 19, no rattles either and it's...

    Disappointed with Harmon Kardon sound

    Look for member "sonnie" he has several posts and seems quite knowledgeable about upgrading the HK system.

    Anyone using touch up paint?

    It could be a while as my 19 Laramie is 14 mo old and no paint kit yet. Secondly, there was a previous poster that wasn't satisfied with the color match of the touch up paint. Just for the record, I bought the Mopar touch up paint for my 14 Brilliant White Sport and Delmonico Red 19 Laramie from...

    Rear wheelhouse liners: protective, or just for looks?

    If you think they are just for looks, take a wander under one that doesn't have them and look at the metal that is exposed to impacts from road debris, gravel etc, compare that to one with liners and then answer the question yourself. I installed liners after I looked but YMMV.

    Warranty through Triton Protect

    You're within a couple of hundred dollars of the 8/125 Mopar warranty but probably $200 deductible. $100 ded would be more but I'd take the Mopar one. Just less of a gamble overall.

    HELP! Garage Door Injury

    My wife had trouble getting the position of her Toyota right so I put a treated 2X4 against her front wheels in position and tap conned it to the floor. It's worked for 12 years. She missed the tennis ball a couple times prior to the 2X4.
