    Billet Silver vs. Max Steel

    Having owned 2 silver vehicles in a row I wanted something different (and I think the silver is too "light" too); I waffled between granite crystal metallic and maximum steel metallic and chose the latter after seeing them in person (in a row with the silver one actually). Hoping to receive...

    Switching from 3.92 to 3.21...

    I was originally planning on 3.21 myself for the (admittedly marginal) higher mileage, but wanted the extra tow capacity. Salesman said he personally only orders 3.92 (or similar) ratio for himself now as it is "more fun" and the MPG difference was 1-2mpg (which I pointed out was around...

    Why Order an eLocker or Limited Slip Differential?

    My current rig is LS and locks (Land Rover LR3). In the 11 years since I purchased it they've only gotten better, BUT I also found that most of the time the "traction control" was just annoying, and when I needed traction (driving through deep snow, mud, etc...) I knew it and could lock the...

    She leaks and creaks...

    If it is the thunk when turning appears to be front end. There are a few threads on it thankfully. Good luck!

    Officially regret buying a 2019 Ram.

    Front leak was a welding issue in the wheel well area iirc. I'd search and postcard link but I'm on my phone only for a few days. Good luck!

    Rebel Quad Cab RamBox

    Last time I checked no 6'4" ramboxes are available; I expect them to come out right around the time I finally get my truck;). (I wanted the 6'4" ramboxes, but ordered what I could back in July). I've heard rumors they will be out, but haven't seen anything official.

    Rambox/E-torque order tracking

    Nice to see the Rambox trucks getting built quicker! That said, getting on a train seems to still take a while;) Order 7/20 D1 8/25 KZ 9/21 Still waiting to get on a train (though I have moved yards!) I'm guessing my dealer's estimate of 10/6 in Selkirk NY is realistic; hopefully I can take...

    Roof racks? and a Rambox measurement question...

    Looks like a great system if you don't have a ram box:) I have lots of Yakima round bar parts and such around; if I can use landing pads (and I think I can now) I should be in good shape. I'll post images when it is all set up (of course, first I need the truck!)

    Roof racks? and a Rambox measurement question...

    That is a very helpful post, and I appreciate the dimensions too. The landing pads I have are 5"; there may be shorter ones as the space needed to actually attach the racks is smaller.

    FAQ: How to Adjust/Remove RamBoxes

    Thank you or the great post, especially taking the time to post images! Nice to see you finally have your truck too:)

    Roof racks? and a Rambox measurement question...

    Awesome looking truck!! Thank you for the roof shot - unless those black strips are hiding something (and I'm guessing no, though I wonder why they are there...) it'll have to be the type the clamps to the vehicle via the door openings.

    Roof racks? and a Rambox measurement question...

    For those wondering my plan - there are times when a truck bed is what I need, but a lot of the time it is just a place to keep things out of the weather, particularly larger items (skis, items for tractor or snow grooming equipment that are broken to bring down to the house for repair), and all...

    Roof racks? and a Rambox measurement question...

    I toss a canoe on the roof occasionally and am trying to figure out what options exist for the 2019 Ram (mine should be here in 10 days... next possible canoe trip with family in town is 12 days...). Are there points on the roof we can attach rack rail or brackets, or are the only options a bed...

    Rambox/E-torque order tracking

    I'm curious - how long were folks in KZ before their truck found a train? Ram Chat says up to 2 weeks (and I know a few of you probably sat there longer (or at least it felt like it!).)

    Rambox/E-torque order tracking

    I'm hoping no quality control issues - mine seemed to fly through the build (in D1 the 18th, "I" the 20th, KZ the 22nd). We'll see how long I wait for a train headed east;)

    Rambox/E-torque order tracking

    D1 yesterday, built and "I" today! Now to try and figure out the order of the codes normally (and how many days until it is sitting waiting to be shipped...)

    Air ride Laramie

    Likewise (I needed bench seating up front.) I ordered my air suspension Laramie 7/20 and went D1 8/25... so perhaps there is a hold on air suspension Laramie;)

    Hill Descent Control

    I don't know about in the Ram, but in the LR3 if I recall correctly it only deals with braking (so if it is on and you get to a hill you need to step on the accelerator...). I've used it infrequently, but when I have it has been nice (creeping down long icy downhills, or steep gravel offroad)...

    Order Tracking

    Looking at the tracking spreadsheet the trucks that seem to take longer right now appear to be Rambox, and maybe Offroad package. There are 4 of us over 8 weeks now I think (which is far better than it was a few weeks ago - nice to see all the folks who ordered back in May finally get built!!)
