    Oil change interval

    For me....only 2 numbers are relevant...if your are a car/truck guy. You either hit mileage, or you hit the time from the last time you change the oil. Everything is using synthetic oil, so that already puts you at 6-10k miles. Now it just comes down to how fast you get to that number. If you...

    Have a couple Big Horn/Laramie questions/comparisons.

    When I switched from my Laramie to my big horn back country the vented seats and the small reclining rear seats was something I had to get use to and I do miss from time to time. 2022 Ram Big Horn Back Country 2016 Dodge Charger scat pack 2021 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited Sahara

    Have a couple Big Horn/Laramie questions/comparisons.

    That's why in saying that figure out what is your must have and go from there For me, when I placed my order for a 2022 I had 3 must haves. Pano sunroof Rambox Off-road package I could have gotten into the Laramie back in July 2021, but i learned about some package called " back country". A...

    Have a couple Big Horn/Laramie questions/comparisons.

    Agree. Believe it or not, some folks have to have navigation. I don't get it, but it's true. I think it comes down to which 8.4"screen you get. With the bighorn, you can get a 5"screen. While the laramie is a standard 8.4" screen. Sent from my SM-G991U using Tapatalk

    Have a couple Big Horn/Laramie questions/comparisons.

    Comes down to your "must have" on your list. Because some features that are standard on the Laramie is not standard on the big horn. Things you can't get on the big horn: Leather seats Ventilated seats Small reclining rear seats Leather dash trim. Navigation (I'm bias on this because Apple car...

    Brand new 2023 Rebel 5.7 Etorq terrible gas mileage.

    Hate to tell you but it sounds like the OP didn't do enough research on this. The MPG on all trucks are inflated. Sent from my SM-G991U using Tapatalk

    Start of 2022 Production.

    It's been a while since I've been on here...is there an official end to the 2022 models built? Would love to get some final numbers. If it's not possible, all good. Happy new year folks...and special one for triple for the hard work. Sent from my SM-G991U using Tapatalk

    2022 5.7 (no etorque) -- 0w-20 vs 5w-30

    Follow the manufacturer recommendation, or you are at risk. Simple as that. Anyone that’s says you can run other types of viscosity, they can split the bill of any engine work done, and put their money where there mouth is. 2022 Ram 1500 Back Country 2016 Dodge Charger scat pack 2021 Jeep...

    Lets See Your BackCountry Trim Trucks!!

    One glaring problem with the backcountry x......YOU CANT GET RAMBOX...lol. But seriously, I think I'm one of the only early back country orders that actually do have rambox, and I'm dying to get some kind of sports bar back there. 2022 Ram Big Horn Back Country 2016 Dodge Charger scat pack...

    Engine detailing risks

    I don't do it as much but one more step I recommend. After pressure washing it, make sure you blow dry the engine using a leaf blower or some kind of compressed air and letting it sit for an hour to air dry. For me, I think standing water in the hard to reach places hurt later down the line...

    RAM app for Android (Android 13 - nothing but a blank screen)

    Wierd. My app also just "white screen" when launching as well. Have a Samsung s21 with os12 on it. Before that, it was just stuck at a "loading please wait. I just thought it was due to my subscription being over 3 months ago, but the app should at least load and Give me basic info about the...

    Lets See Your BackCountry Trim Trucks!!

    I got lucky with mine, because I placed my order in June 2021. Waited 6 months to get it, and very much worth it. If my memory serves me correct it was available from june-august last year. Then due to part shortage, they removed that feature. 2022 Ram Big Horn Back Country 2016 Dodge Charger...

    Lets See Your BackCountry Trim Trucks!!

    Which fender flares did you go with? I went with non oem ones (red rock) and I have to warm them up and bend them a bit, so the plastic lines right up with the body of the truck. If not, I would get gaps. Also, I have to figure out what I want to do with the plastic trim pieces at the bottom...

    Is the diesel leaving?

    Don’t have official numbers just yet….but if that’s true, it sucks. You can keep the hemi engine with some minor tweaks…and just make the car more light weight and that will increase mpg alone. I’m all for electric engine over any turbo engine. With turbos, your just adding an boosted...

    Uconnect box battery low

    You can add me to the list :( happened 2 days ago, but it hasn't popped up since. I know my uconnect did an upgrade about 3 weeks ago...no issues. Should i just check my battery, and throw it on the trickle recharger just to make sure? 2022 Ram Big Horn Back Country 2016 Dodge Charger scat...

    Is the diesel leaving?

    Just saw this article. They are getting rid of that engine too? The sucky part is they STILL haven't announced the replacement engine. I'm not a big fan of the diesel engine, but that MPG rating gave dodge a second life and hemi a longer shelf life. They better start putting out new engine and...
