    Engine, rear gear, type of differential

    The above mentioned gear calculator has no mention of overdrive, it is assuming a 1:1 high gear ratio we are so far past that those gear ratios have no meaning. With 6th gear being the 1:1 ratio and 7th and 8th being overdrives.

    Why is the crew cab with the 6.4 bed not a popular option?

    I like my little long bed, I say little in comparison to my old F350 CC with the eight foot box. I had a shortbox and just didnt care for it.

    best all terrain tires for stock 2020 ram?

    Why all the fanfare for these overly wide tires for highway travel, especially in the winter with snow or even worse slush to contend with. I've always gone with the narrower taller tire choice for every thing except sand driving. The OP has 275/55R20's that is about 31.9 inches tall, the same...

    Tire Pressure question for 20 inch tires

    Interesting question it seems to come up often in various forms; here is an answer I found, OEM Size (LT275/65R18 C) Load Capacity: 2054 lbs. @ 38 psi. New Size (275/55R20 SL) Load Capacity: 2061 lbs. @ 28 psi. There is a website that I visit often when I'm researching tire questions...

    Too much black?

    Well in my opinion thats a good thing I have gotten to were I dislike intensely these all black trucks and black interiors. I had to look all over for a truck with a light colored interior and it came with the Patriot Blue exterior. My previous truck was the Granite and it was a good looking...

    Do 18's fit? Wheel and Tire recs for my 2021 1500?

    I'm putting LT265/70R18's (32.6 inch) on stock rims for my snow tires, my summers are the stock Falken LT275/65R18C's (32.1 inch). Just visually I would say that you might get away with 33's but I wouldn't be surprised if 34's rubbed. My truck is a 19 Laramie with the air ride. The rears have...

    Wheels 22"

    To each his own, I searched all over for a Laramie with 18's because for my driving those 20 an 22's are completely worthless. Then I purchased a second set of 18's to mount my snow tires on and I'll likely go narrower then stock for those tires, looking at 255/70-18's or possibly 265/70-18's...

    Tire Ply Rating

    With the 116 load rated tires you will be far past your trucks axle rating. Also those load ratings are usually at the tires max rated pressure which will result in a rough ride unless the truck is "overloaded". I don't believe that your tires will see much change in pressure from loading...

    Tire Ply Rating

    The load rating is a 3 digit code that translate to a weight capacity for a tire; The XL(extra load) or SL(standard load) doesn't mean much till you look at the load rating. And then you have your letter code that relates to your speed rating which you shouldn't exceed.

    Tire Ply Rating

    To add to your confusion even Load range "E" tires are no longer actually made with 10 plys , more like 3 in the sidewalls and maybe 4 or 6 in the tread. heavy load range tires will tend to weigh more then lighter load range and will have a higher load rating. But with a half ton pickup do you...

    Air suspension bad idea if near payload capacity?

    My "19" Laramie has the air suspension and a one ton load in the box did disable the air suspension, it was in the standard mode when the pallet was loaded, the truck lowered to the areo mode on it's own and would not lower or raise untill I got unloaded.

    Is Rebel categorized Commercial in NY?

    From the NYS DMV When your truck was registered by the dealer they may have requested commercial plates if they thought it was for a business. I found a curb weight for a Rebel of 5314 pounds. Pick-up Trucks (Part 106.6 (b) and (c)) You can register a pick-up in the 'Passenger' class if...

    Ram Trucks Reduces The Complexity Of Its 2022 Ram 1500 Lineup!

    Well lucky for me I traded up a bit this spring from my 2015 Big Horn to my current 2019 Larime. I had been looking for several months and the dealers didn't want to deal on the new ones as far as ordering one and I had some fairly specific requirements. I wanted the power seat with adjustable...

    S.O.S. !!! Locked out of 2021 RAM & Engine Running (key inside) Uconnect unlock signal NOT unlocking door!!!!!!

    Good to hear that you got into your truck. Many times Uconnect wouldn't work on my 2015. I have heard many times that you couldn't lock your key fob in your truck, BULL the doors will easily lock in many ways with the key fob in the vehicle. Any time you remote start either by a second key fob...
