    Factory Wheels Mistake

    It's true, Limited comes with chrome tow hooks standard.

    Factory Wheels Mistake

    Tow hooks are dead giveaway it has the ORP.

    Low Oil Pressure Fix.

    OP probably also counts how many licks it takes to get to the center of a Tootsie Pop! LOL

    Rebel GT Exhaust question

    From AP Aug 10: Unfortunately, that is a local pick up only product in Omaha, Nebraska. Mopar assembled it in one-piece, not allowing it to ship cost effectively for us.

    Ceramic Coating Experience

    Meh, just do it yourself. I really like Pinnacle Black Label Diamond Surface Coating. Also really like almost everything Griot's makes too. https://5thgenrams.com/community/threads/what-did-you-do-to-your-ram-today.1686/post-634047

    Truck won’t start.. RFHUB

    $3k+ on a rental is nuts... I'd demand the dealer shuttle vehicle take me to/from work, grocery store, etc LOL

    Rebel GT Exhaust question

    AP told me they wouldn't ship, cost too high. Pickup only.

    ETorque Issue

    Not to mention the 48v battery pack which is like $1800.

    Westin Sportsman X Grille Guard + Parking Sensor

    I could see how sensor orientation might matter, if they can be installed in more than one way. Are the sensors at the same height as OEM? Are they the same distance in relationship to each other as OEM? That could have some impact...

    ETorque Issue

    Especially when a new Mopar "regular" alternator is 1/3 the price and a remanufactured is $125. It's also telling that even though the DT has been on the market for 4+ years, Rock Auto doesn't carry the eTorque alternator.

    Catalytic converter stolen; Progressive only endorse aftermarket converter, any issue?

    Disagree. Using your logic, if the truck had been stolen it would be the body shop's responsibility to replace the vehicle. Or if the cat had been stolen while the vehicle was parked at Wally World it would be their responsibility. That's just nonsense. How is the body shop (or Wally World)...

    ETorque Issue

    eTorque adds a bunch of complication for minimal benefit to the consumer. Plus it's more likely to have reliability issues and will certainly be horrendously expensive to repair when out of warranty. In the future I'm sure there will be a huge thread for how to convert eTorque back to a...

    Rebel GT Exhaust question

    I checked with some online retailers for the GT exhaust parts (68517364AA, 68517365AA). They either won't ship it or charge big $$$ to ship - like half the cost of the two parts. Has anyone found a place recently with reasonable shipping? I'm waiting to hear back from my dealer but not...

    ETorque Issue

    EPA mpg benefits are all that matter to Dodge and eTorque does improve the rated mileage 5.7L HEMI® V8 Engine: 15 mpg city/22 mpg highway 5.7L HEMI® V8 Engine with eTorque: 17 mpg city/23 mpg highway

    Lets See Your BackCountry Trim Trucks!!

    I don't mind the wheels/tires on the Backcountry. I mean the whole package is a huge value for only $2,695 and is jam packed with some great options. That it doesn't come with huge tires/wheels doesn't bother me because the package would cost a lot more - to give an idea, the 20" wheel is a...

    Brand new and issues

    I mean if we're going to be picky, this is the 8.4 Inch UConnect 5 System (2022+) sub-forum so the "it" is self evident. My "it" has been perfect so far. No issues with presets, booting, or carplay. It blows the doors off the POS in our 2021 Subaru Outback Touring XT.

    '22 Hemi 8HP75 vs. '20 EcoDiesel 8HP75

    Is your experience from not using the parking brake regularly? I've used the parking brakes regularly in all my vehicles pretty much ever. My experience has been when used all the time, they keep themselves adjusted properly (I've never had any wear out that the shoes/pads need replacing) and...

    '22 Hemi 8HP75 vs. '20 EcoDiesel 8HP75

    Maybe I'm Captain Obvious here, but why not just use the parking brake? I configured my '22 Big Horn truck to automatically set/release the parking brake. But even if it didn't, I would still set it manually every time. From the owner's manual: Before leaving the vehicle, make sure that the...

    Lets See Your BackCountry Trim Trucks!!

    The Quad Cab I ordered showed up without the step bars. I wasn't paying extra for something when Ram didn't reduce the price for an $$$ option deleted from the Backcountry package. I got lucky and found a Crew Backcountry on the lot at another dealer and bought it. My dealer was happy too...
