    Oil change every 12 months

    Blackstone, the cost of one saved oil change pays for analysis. I've run Rotella T6 synthetic in all my trucks, cars, motorcycles (it's JASO MA2) and lawn equipment for years. 55$ for 2.5 gallons at Wal-Mart. Delo or Delvac are good too.

    First Ram, First Brand New Truck

    Great looking truck, the payment is worth seeing it in the driveway and hearing it bark when you hit the remote start. I love my commute now.

    Lowered Laramie Sport

    I see the roadrace pic and figure we're after the same thing. I installed the -2" Maxtrac springs and Hellwig on the stiffest setting. Flogged it hard today on one of my favorite bumpy, tight backroads. On smooth hairpins it has no understeer, if you lift just as you initiate turn in, then...

    Turbo lag / Throttle response

    You never mat your accelerator? I literally cannot imagine that. I mash mine to the floor like I'm driving a rental.

    Turbo lag / Throttle response

    Adjust your technique. My gas truck and my former diesel had the annoying dead pedal. From a stop i just leave my left foot on the brake and preload the gas pedal just a hair to bring valve body pressure up against the brake. I assume it's the transmission because this works, though in the older...

    Lowered the rear 2" last night.

    That looks so much better, my -2 springs are supposed to be here today.

    Hellwig Sway Bar Purchase$$$$

    I did that haha. The middle of the bar has an offset, you can definitely mess it up if you try.

    What does everyone do for a living?

    You guys made far too many.

    Wow that's great. No Antifa badges though? Missing out on the Portland market hahaha.

    First 1,000 mile review!

    Haha, I don't know if that's common where you live but most guys with tow mirrors here run them up all the time.

    Debadging

    Thanks very much, yeah that would be problematic ehh? No one making a plug n play blank with faux screen or anything? Definitely can't do what I was picturing.

    Has anyone just removed the hood badge entirely? I had considered replacing it with Black slash Dodge graphics.

    5th Gen Ram 1500: The $65,000 truck that will end up costing you much more

    Combining all the utility of an American truck platform with all the experience of luxury car ownership was always going to end up causing issues with truck buyers who never owned a Jaguar or Rover. It sucks that your truck is giving you heartburn, but not too surprising with all the doodads. I...

    Does Cold Air Intakes make a difference?

    Adding a K&N filter will definitely increase your engine's ingestion of foreign particulate. Stick with pleated paper.

    What did you do to your Ram today???

    Sadist. I don't think that's math I'd actually want to do. 😆

    My First Tank Of Gas MPG

    I drove over the mountain to Central Oregon to ride my dirt bike all weekend. Traffic was light ish but I did hit the limiter several times passing lines of cars. Mostly 65-70 cruising and running around the high desert to the hotel and back out to staging area etc. Lightly loaded with bike...
