    2020 Ram fluid change intervals

    What is "definite proof"? The science of tribology says that 30w always offers more protection than 20w in the same formula. So we do know that a 30w is better, and if you have tracked UOA's over many oil changes with different grades (like I have), then I can see that the 2 runs with the...

    2020 Ram fluid change intervals

    Lifter failure has nothing to do with MDS. Even hemis without MDS from the factory (like the manual challengers) have lifter failures. As for fluid intervals, 5000 miles is a great interval to aim for. Run 5w-30 or 0w-30 if you're in really cold climate. The owners manual should be placed in...

    Stellantis CEO Resigns

    That's the thing, I don't want to watch if there is nothing substantiated lol. Most of these guys deal with rumours and fluffy nonsense to build views and I'd rather not waste my time.

    Is that just more click bait or are there some new facts in there?

    Which USB ports power down with the truck

    I bought one of those wireless android auto thingy's to make life a little nicer. Works great and as intended, but now everytime I walk past my truck my cell phone tries to connect so that tells me the device in the truck is still powered up hours later. I have it plugged into the USB port by...

    Best seat covers big horn 1500?

    I have these and they are really great. They fit very well, nice and comfortable, quite thick, and heated seats still works well but I don't have cooled seats so can't comment on that. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B09YD1WS4W

    REV vs Ramcharger - who would buy a REV?

    "I'm not intending" = "I have no intention of continuing this discussion". Now if you'd stop trying to drag me back, into this we can all exit the discussion, thanks. I'm not Dewey, I'm not you, I'll do and write as I see fit.

    REV vs Ramcharger - who would buy a REV?

    I'm not intending to make an issue out of this, it was just a comment showing how volatile the gas/electric debate is when it comes to cars and it can change yearly. But there is nothing in the rules about avoiding politics. Just "excessive or inflammatory political comments in an otherwise...

    Don't need a 2500 Now

    You're not going to get "max tow" numbers. Those are marketing values only. By the time you open the door jamb of a 2025 bighorn with sunroof, ramboxs, generator, 4x4 etc, you'll be in the 1300 to 1500 pound territory. You cannot compare a 1/2 ton to a 3/4 ton truck. The 3/4 ton will output...

    REV vs Ramcharger - who would buy a REV?

    Don't you guys know anything about your own economy? You literally cannot produce the oil that is needed (in large part), Alberta and Venezula and Middle East are the only known sources of this thick crude oil produced in Alberta. The specific refineries in the USA that use this oil cannot just...

    REV vs Ramcharger - who would buy a REV?

    Well, you guys are going to be paying a lot more for oil and gas in a short hurry if the don gets his way. Tarrifs incoming.

    5.7 hemi cam and lifter (mds delete)

    You can get entire kits for something like this, cam + springs + mds delete etc. You'd need to have it tuned professionally as well, either by them or someone else. I'd get the "hellfire" kit as its the best version for our trucks. After that, longtube headers would be beneficial...

    DS vs DT - Frame Stability / crash and roll-over safety / roof strength

    Only cases I've seen of bent frames (both DS and DT, btw) are when loaded heavy and using suspension helpers like sumo springs or timbrens.

    Rebel tow mirrors?

    I bought the ksource snap mirrors and still have them. But to be honest I just run around towing without them. My RV is 8 feet wide but I find the little round spot mirrors to do everything I need, and I can still see good enough on the main mirror as well. Main reason for not using them, I...

    A Comprehensive Guide to Towing with the 2019 RAM 1500 - Everything You Need to Know!

    General rule of thumb, for a travel trailer you take about 13% of GVWR on the trailer to calculate how much tongue weight you'd add to your truck. 13% of 9540 is about 1200 pounds, so simply connecting the trailer to your truck you're already over payload. That doesn't even include the weight...

    Owned my truck since 2019 and never knew this about, tonight I just discovered that my puddle lights and interior lights weren't working and was about ready to start pulling fuses until reading this, thanks for the info!
