    I wanted the coveted #100 post but.....2WD Rebels??

    The locking rearend would work out well in many situations. The biggest complaint I would have is here in Portland, Oregon is resale value is weak on 2wd trucks as people in northwest want 4wd for the 2" of snow once a year...lol. For instance, a 2wd Suburban is like an oversized station...

    Driving in 8TH gear

    If you go into the * settings area of UConnect display, there is an option to turn on to display current gear you are in and it will display + or - when you use that feature. Also you can turn on the "eco" light display there also to show when in fuel saving mds 4 cylinder mode. I believe...

    AC - does anyone have a truck that blows ice cold?

    Those are best temps that I think anyone has reported with truck in stock form. You were lucky and got a truck probably working as intended. Please verify accuracy of thermometer by suspending probe in ice water without touching bottom or walls of glass just for accuracy sake. I believe it...

    Driving in 8TH gear

    Selecting tow/haul mode also disables mds (I think?) and also winds rpms a little higher between shifts. (Makes aftermarket exhaust sound cool) It does want to downshift sooner to help with engine braking though, and not sure if it will go to 8th gear on freeway.

    Driving in 8TH gear

    The + - buttons on steering wheel that affects gear changes. It will shut off mds if you use them to alter the regular gear selection by computer.

    PorBoy has all these systems installed on his truck with a 6 position valve to switch them. Here is a picture of his installed pipe organ setup.

    Travel Trailer: Hours away from pulling the trigger.. Give me a sanity Check!

    Maybe consider replacing rear factory hollow sway bar with a Hellwig rear (beefy) bar and set it at highest level link hole. It makes my Rebel with air suspension feel really planted and should make pulling big trailer a breeze.

    Best Exhaust System for 2019 Ram

    I love the Magnaflow cat back system on my Rebel! It has nice distant thunderstorm deep rumble but great on highway. Open up the windows and mash throttle and you will become a teenager at the dragstrip. You have absolute control with throttle of its loudness. Actually, if you look under...

    A/C Performance

    very true......i just sent another email to Andre Smirnov about this video requesting they also compare drivers center vent against passenger center vent temp readings. I pointed out that their temps are similar to the "happier" members and that they need to monitor other new Rams and also...

    A/C Performance

    AHA...............I sent Andre Smirnov of TFLtruck an email a few weeks ago about our 2019 1500's AC cooling being poor with up to 8 degree vent temperature difference. He said they would check their Rebel against other competitors. Sounds like they did some testing! Actually those are some...

    Changed Dash Speakers To Kickers...WOW!

    I finally got 2 pairs of Infinity Ref 3032 cfx from Crutchfield for the 3 dash positions of my Rebel with Alpine. Do I need to mess with checking phase or just install them with the Metra adapters? What did you do? What about the big black capacitors included? Did you use them? Thanks!

    Ford F-250 Totaled after rear-ending my Rebel

    While on subject of accidents, I have seen like 3 examples on TV news reports over last 6 months of Ford Superduties that when they show pictures of wreck aftermath, the Superduties roofs collapsed pretty extensively from being rolled over. I am sure these were from various years as they...

    Ford F-250 Totaled after rear-ending my Rebel

    Make a list of all the add ons and proof of their cost. You can always say no to first offer and fight back for a better offer settlement. Even if they could repair it, you would want the coating, etc restored. You won't want a "reconstructed" title brand for loss of resale value. Ram makes...
