    Air conditioning performance

    I feel the ac system is a fatal design flaw with Ram and they dropped the ball because it lacks performance, too many people complain. People with the sliding moon roof suffer more because the roof acts as a heat sink on the glass and makes the problem worse. Like trying to kill ants with a...

    truck bed storage options

    It's great, from the research I did it's better than their previous models, a few cons though, 1. Can freeze in cold snow weather. 2. Can hear rattling on aluminum slides with the rear sliding window open on bumps. 3. Rear tracks could have been trimmed as they have sharp corners, I took a...

    Ram 1500 big horn build

    I originally wanted a night edition but a hold was put on this when ordering so I went with a sports package and modified it a little myself and new take-offs wheels/tires from offer up.

    Dealership delays repair until after warranty? (possibly not malicious)

    I forgot.... keep fighting and calling FCA and go higher and ask to have your case escalated if needed, it took me three months to get a simple chrome wheel replaced, although I purchased a new night edition wheel tire set on offer up as a second set. Keep fighting, you should not have to pay...

My retired black Saturn car of 20 years, the rack was going out and it would make the car jerk during a turn; nowadays new cars are...

    Swapping Limited chrome grill for night edition grill?

    Should be plug and play, for mine a bighorn I took the front grill off as a assembly bc the panels below the headlights, the inboard clips will break if you try to pull them off as the clips are fragile and will break... I did a headlight swap and my lights arrived late during a snowstorm 20...

    Leds for halogen housings

    I prefer halogen lights as of now bc I'm just used to putting led/hid bulbs in my vehicles, that being said I went with lastfit bulbs. First I tried carbon fiber headlight covers and didn't like them so I changed the chrome headlights with night edition headlights and rear taillights to led...

    Have a couple Big Horn/Laramie questions/comparisons.

    Which is why I got mine as well in 2022 at invoice + $4750 in rebates at 0% chrysler capital. The prices went up huge since 2020 when I started researching, so I finally pulled the plug in 2022 in fear of 2023 pricing/options/ect. for my bighorn sports package edition.

    Have a couple Big Horn/Laramie questions/comparisons.

    Paid $1400 on offer up Factory Ram rims, now I have a winter and summer set. The chrome plated rims pit really bad liks Cadillacs from the 90's. Had to fight tooth and nail to get one replaced, showing them it was a manufacturing defect... the new replacement had issues as well but was 10 times...

    Have a couple Big Horn/Laramie questions/comparisons.

    Very good point Darksteel, for this reason... I went to the used car lot and viewed newer Ram 1500's and F-150's years 2020-2021 and all the front bumpers had many small specs of paint missing on the front bumper and trim pieces directly below the headlight, This is my first new car at age 40...

    Have a couple Big Horn/Laramie questions/comparisons.

    As many have stated the differences which the big horn may not have... Passive entry, Leather seats/ leather dash trim Ventilated seats Reclining rear seats Led headlamps/ tail lamps rain sensitive wipers Ram boxes Fender flares But for me I couldn't justify spending 62-75 grand for a truck...

    2023 Ram Limited Night Edition Color Preferences

    I like black its my favorite color, I had a black Saturn sc2 that gave out after 19 years, I washed and waxed it through the years, everything shows up on black; dings, swirls if not waxed and buffed, scratches from shopping cart, people letting the wind catch the door, people that can't park...
