    What did you do to your Ram today???

    Another option, if you just "hate" using the ginormous 8.4/12.3 Uconnect Nav Systems, try a Garmin DriveAssist 51LMT-S GPS, w/ a built-in Dash Cam! ;) https://g.factoryoutletstore.com/details/607996/garmin-driveassist-51-na-lmt-s.html?category_id=43225&catalogitemid=546245 Advanced Navigation...

    Can you install a dropdown step without messing with OEM specs

    This was posted 09/12/20 by @Limited38 who managed to install both, after some slick machining! Yes it can be done. Modified Mopar P/N 82216265A bed step. Machined mounting flange to clear existing corner step structure, trimmed corner step lower mounting flange & drilled new mounting bolt...

    From the manual, it's recommended every 15K miles or every 2 years:

    Bakflip mx4 vs lomax stance vs retrax. Best hard cover

    It was out once in a heavy rain and only a slight "dribble" of water got in. I did not expect (or necessarily need) it to be "waterproof" so I was VERY happy w/ so little water that got in. All it needs is a bit of add'l weather-stripping or some silicone sealant to make it completely waterproof.

    Bakflip mx4 vs lomax stance vs retrax. Best hard cover

    Not the best pix. BUT if you need add'l room, it takes just a couple of minutes to remove the 4 C-clamps & lift the cover out.

    2021 w/ RamBox, MFT, and Tonneau cover

    If you have the silver (aluminum) rails, you would not need anything additional for installing the Retrax 60244 or Retrax 80244. Not sure about other brands.

    The Ram is my 3rd pickup and the Retrax is my 1st tonneau cover. https://retrax.com/product-detail/80244. So no experiences with other brands. But this cover is top-notch! Good luck w/ your research!

    Deflector Pros and Cons

    My AVS Hoodflector has been GREAT! But I only do touchless car washes or hand wash. https://www.autoventshade.com/avs-21953-hoodflector-hood-protector

    Best cargo lights

    The Key Fob error hasn't been a problem w/ the newer Lasfit LEDs and Lasfit typically have been good about exchanging the older LEDs for the newer LEDs. And as noted, while more expensive, the LEDs by DD also work very well and are made in the USA!

    Throttle controllers...

    Thanks for your reply and some great points made! Still on the fence on getting a TC (leaning yes). Most posters seem to like TCs and those w/ the PC also are mostly pleased. So I'll keep researching & debating & reading posts & ... 😵

    Best cargo lights

    Throttle controllers...

    Anymore reviews or experiences w/ the HIKE IT X9? I've only found a couple of posts that mention that particular Throttle Controller, w/ positive comments. Other websites also have very positive reviews. It's priced a bit lower than most & has some features that may be unique to it: - 32...

    Led Cargo light

    GREAT info on the noted post above. I'm using ("new", round) white Lasfit LEDs for the 2 cargo lights, and a red Diode Dynamics for the 3rd brake light. Good luck!
