    Digital Key setup 2025 Laramie

    For those who got the update, which "version" does it now show?

    Digital Key setup 2025 Laramie

    Is there a "check for updates" buried in the settings screen somewhere that might allow us to be proactive out this?

    2025 RAM trailer camera

    So to be clear …. I get that the 360 trailer surround camera system is not available for the 2025 yet, even if properly wired and equipped. However, there is not even yet a single camera that can be installed on our trailer, run to the plug, and display via the digital rear view mirror? That...

    2025 Ram 1500 Current Owners - Discussion, Feedback, and Problems

    The pinkish/brown look is normal . . . you also notice that it tends to look more like the original purple when cold and under certain lighting conditions.

    2025 Ram 1500 Current Owners - Discussion, Feedback, and Problems

    For both my two 2025s, they came with the coolant at the MIN line. But, I'm not a great example, as the first one continues to have coolant loss, and the second one was leaking at the water pump (fixed). I recommend you guys wait until it is dead cold and on level ground, then fill it EXACTLY...

    Digital Key setup 2025 Laramie

    You guys are assuming these updates are for the digital key, but we have no idea if that’s true. I do respect your giddy optimism, though.

    2025 Ram 1500 Current Owners - Discussion, Feedback, and Problems

    I was going to do a separate thread but will just summarize here …. Bought a 2025 Big Horn in August. Nothing but trouble, including parking sensor errors, collision warning offline errors, towing disconnect errors, the blue screen of death, dead secondary battery, blown strut, etc. Spent 61...

    2025 Ram 1500 Standard Output Towing

    School me on this …. my 2025 1500 Laramie has a listed towing capacity of 11,550lbs. What does this mean for actual weight of items towed? Currently, I use it for towing my track car in a Futura trailer. Total weight is about 5200lbs. However, I’m considering going to an enclosed trailer...

    Oil in coolant

    Yea, I was trying to not be like all the alarmist fools on the internet and instead think positively for you. But, that new picture changes the diagnosis for the worst; I think it likely you have a head gasket issue. Sorry. In your tech's defense, it is very possible oil is getting into the...

    Oil in coolant

    Others will pipe in, but I’m not convinced that’s oil. Perhaps it is. My bet is that there was no oil in it, and the tech who said your oil was fine was right. But …. you still need to figure out if you have a coolant leak. The pressure test is the first step. It should be easy and cheap.

    Oil in coolant

    Can you post a picture of the “crud” you think might be oil?

    Possible Hurricane misfire at cruising speed.

    There have been a bunch of the Hurricanes with misfire, so that might be what you’re feeling. However, what you describe is also a sensation that’s common on turbo’d motors. I had several Taurus SHO’s, and they did it, one really badly. Something to do with the watergate, IIRC. It’s a light...

    Power Multifunction Tailgate

    So, what we've learned . . . keeping it to the 2025 . . . 1) They all have "power release" whether a regular tailgate or MFT, as the tailgate's handles are electrically activated. 2) With a regular tailgate, even the 2025 Big Horn has the "remote activated" down function (via overhead button...

    Power Multifunction Tailgate

    To be clear, this is not true on the 2025 Laramie, Level 2 ….

    New Ram owner

    Wow. There are other posts about the flashing odometer, so that’s not crazy. The resetting mileage is, though. Would be tempting to drive it a few years like that 😂

    Wait, what? Can you elaborate on the cluster issue?

    Power Multifunction Tailgate

    I dug up the window sticker on my 2025 Laramie. Under the standard equipment, it says "Dampened Tailgate." And, of course, no mention of any power features over in optional equipment where the MFT is shown. I guess that answers my question . . . power (down) release is not even standard...

    Power Multifunction Tailgate

    Good call. I’ll go dig up my window sticker when I get home tonight. It dawns on me, when I open my tailgate, whether using the normal tailgate function, or the swinging barn door function, the releases are electric. In other words, it’s very clearly not mechanical in nature when I open them at...

    syoung- Driving 2025 Ram with 4,200 miles on it

    I hate responses where someone says, “Nope, my life is awesome, so sucks to be you.” :) But …. I’ve had to 2025 RAMs of the same color you have (one is being Lemon Law’d), and neither have this problem. You might have success with a warranty claim.

    Downside Of Buying From Distant Dealer

    I did similar this time, and on other occasions throughout my tenured existence :) The pros to going long distance: You get exactly what you want. Further, you have more leverage to make a deal, as they know they have to be aggressive to entice you to go the distance. That changes, of...
