    Dealer dented my truck

    I learned the hard way to. Take photos all around when you drop it off (we all have phones) and the same when you pick it up. Then delete them when Ok. Do that especially when getting a windshield replaced. Finally, that dent looks PDR doable as long as the paint is not broken. You will never...

    headrest too far forward

    You can reverse them. Point them backwards, it has been noted on some YouTube videos. Give it a try.

    F150 or RAM 1500? Here to help get this sorted...

    The Ford aluminum body will fight corrosion for sure, but it is susceptible to denting. We shopped both. Price was important and the equivalent Ford was over $5K (10%) more than my RAM. I love the 3.92's but there is a potential fuel economy issue depending on how you drive. I am seeing 15 MPG...

    Refinancing Experiences

    Worth it to me as well. 810 credit score, FCA was 6.49% as I learned at the dealer on pick up day. Internet sale, I am sure some of that percentage went to them and I was 250 miles from home. I was shocked but did it knowing my bank was much lower. Went to my credit union 5-10 days later and...

    Be sure to spray some anti corrosion in the hole and around the back of the clip/fender in case the screw or nut scratched the paint/primer off while spinning. Fluid film, corrosion x , or any type of anti corrosion spray. I am glad you got it out. My sons 2020 warlock had issues installing...

    A/T tires

    I agree, I never got the advertised tread life, even treadwear or low noise after a few thousand miles with Goodyear’s. I have tried several on cars and trucks. What disappoints me most is the actual tread width Based on size. They use the same Narrow tread width on many Tire sizes/widths and...

    A/T tires

    I got the OEM 20” wild peaks for 3 seasons as well as the 18” Falken Rubitrek ATs for winter. So far I am very impressed with the Rubitreks and the price was incredible. Reviews are great as well. Very quiet, nice ride and the first snow they gripped well. They are snow rated (snowflake...

    I just got my 3M PPF kit from EBay. Installing soon in a warm garage with my sons to help. It was $268 for the whole front bumper, lights, grille, hood and area below the lights as a kit. I have done it before and am looking forward to the challenge of the bumper. The lowest quote I got...

    How do you like your flares? Any paint damage to fenders? I am considering them but wanted some opinions first. I do not want my fender paint rubbing off and causing rust. Can you send me a pic or two of the flares?

    leasing question

    My last deal with Chrysler Cap on a Ram was you (the Leasee only) can buy it (your name only, whatever is on the lease), and must pay local sales tax, then you have to sell it to him and he has to pay tax again. That's why I did not buy out my last Ram. Double Tax was foolish. They will not...

    Goodbye Night Edition.....until springtime.

    Wow, what a difference a wheel and tire make. I love those black 20’s and white lettered tires. Unfortunately that brine will eat them away in the Maine winters. It’s going to be a long winter with the base big horn look...... the 18” Falken Rubitreks seem to ride pretty quiet and smooth...

    4 Visits, 115Volt outlet will not power Lenovo laptop, Agent says not compatible.

    I guess it’s a known issue. Try an Amazon non lenovo charger. https://forums.lenovo.com/t5/T400-T500-and-newer-T-series/T440-laptop-not-charging-on-inverter/td-p/1787319

    4 Visits, 115Volt outlet will not power Lenovo laptop, Agent says not compatible.

    I tried it with my 66 Watt Lenovo PS for my notebook. I got power for a few seconds and nothing. No charge, no power. My guess is the Lenovo PS does not like inverter power and shuts down. It’s truly an incompatibility. I will try my Dell tomorrow.
