    Thieves are stealing rams in seconds

    Are they removing the CHMSL then using CANBus to unlock it? Scary if so. Fords are designed to be pushed.

    The Hemi is back!?!

    Yeah, but this guy cackles a lot. Doesn’t that count for something?

    Lithium crank battery

    That’s a sound analysis. It might be a while—years, perhaps—before I reach a verdict. I’m still glad to be the lab rat. The IBS settings I’ve changed with JScan appear to have no impact on how the truck charges the 12V battery; maybe they apply only to non-etorque vehicles. Or maybe I just...

    Lithium crank battery

    First, a nitpick: AGM is a type of lead acid battery. I put in a LiFePO4 starter battery in my truck a few months ago. Too soon to say whether I’d recommend it. I wouldn’t not recommend it so far, but longevity remains to be seen. My reason for going lithium is to power my...

    New 2024 Ford F-150 First Look: If It Ain't Broke, Add Stuff

    Who claimed for 10 days? Ford says up to 9.6kW, or “if you ration,” up to ten days. But you’re not going to get 10 days as 9.6kW continuously, nor did Ford imply you would.

    I’m not a PR expert, but I do have one suggestion for the Greater Idaho movement: maybe don’t use a color scheme that resembles the Communist China flag.

    What did you do to your Ram today???

    Yesterday, I drove and saw 89 on my HUD. No way I’m doing 89 MPH, I thought to myself. Indeed, I wasn’t; I accidentally switched to metric.

    Bed Storage Alternatives

    Two people mentioned bedslides and Decked drawers. Here’s a product from a Dirtbox Overland that combines both ideas: two drawers, and two half width slides. A much different beast, particularly price wise, than some of the options in this thread. Even more expensive than a bed slide or Decked...

    How To: Add shock sensor to factory alarm

    Just in case anyone else was thinking, like I did, "Wait a minute, don't all 5th Gens have a locking tailgate? Wouldn't you need to unlock the truck to open the tailgate?" Yes to the first, no to the second: At least if you have proximity unlock, you can walk up to the tailgate with key in hand...

    Another RAM trying to outrun the cops

    I know lots of people bemoaning the end of the Hemi, but see, this is why you need the HO SST. Kidding!

    Battery Tender for E-torque

    That’s about why I’m wondering. I work from home, so I don’t drive my truck often. I’ve now replaced my 12V battery, but I’ve the SoC and voltage of the 48V as I commented in my other post. I wonder if those numbers are normal, or because I don’t drive enough to keep the 48V charged.

    Battery Tender for E-torque

    Reviving an old thread. Has anyone else monitored their 48V battery using JScan or AlfaOBD? I was surprised by two things JScan showed me: the state of charge was consistently below 60%, and the voltage was around 44 V. Are these values normal? 60% SoC strikes me as low, but not worrisomely...
