    Penzoil ultra on sale at Napa

    Probably just an old stock image from the Napa site, current jugs no longer have that Pure Plus graphic on most retailers including Amazon, and including Pennzoil's own information page...

    That actually good for autoparts store, but have you checked out Walmart, currently $27 for PUP.

    2019 RAM 1500 Big Horn HEMI 56k

    I've had my 2019 since new, absolutely adore my truck, no issues to report other than the 8.4" screen delaminating, which is pretty common across all Stellantis vehicles with the same screen, simple and relatively cheap fix anyways. The other is my chair is rocking about 1mm forward and...

    1500 vs. 2500 (any maker) road manners

    Awesome, I'll check them out. Lots of guys like that who own fishing boats and don't really fish, the CC is a good platform for most things. Boston Whalers I think they are a little overpriced for sure, that's why I would consider a used one. Not really a wait list on Grady Whites, I think...

    1500 vs. 2500 (any maker) road manners

    I'm looking at new Grady White or slightly used Boston Whaler in the 25ft-27ft size with twin outboards. Cool, which company was that at shelter island, wonder if they do PWCs as well? Reason for switching below.... That's interesting, Is that Laramie a 4x4 at that price? Essentially all...

    1500 vs. 2500 (any maker) road manners

    We are looking at a bigger center console fishing boat, probably close to 8,700 lbs with fuel and trailer, I am definitely looking at a F250 XL 7.3L gasser, surprisingly good looking and equipped for a base model at just $60,000 MSRP. Honestly a bargain for what your get. The only issue is the...

    WTF? Anyone else with a Limited or Tungsten have severe chipping on your wheel well trim?

    This is a big reason why the Ford Raptor has very wide and flat running boards, known as Raptor Boards specifically to prevent this issue, the Raptor has very wide hips and very knobby tires, you can imagine the paint chips that would happen without those running boards on that truck.

    Best Oil for Hemi "Tick"

    100% in regards to running older and simpler products for a long time that have worked out all the kinks. Especially in other markets they have vehicles that are several steps below their main competitors in terms of technology, but this has its advantages in less things to go wrong. You get a...

    Ticking noise is this a normal hemi tick?

    Gotcha, it honestly sounds like normal injectors, not something I would be worried about, but maybe I'm missing a sound in the audio I can't hear?

    Best Oil for Hemi "Tick"

    As a previous and current Toyota owner, in two different countries, I will say, there is a bias where Toyota owners believe their vehicles are so reliable that when they do have issues, they almost pretend it didn't happen. My buddy's Tacoma has some issues early on in his ownership, but he...

    Ticking noise is this a normal hemi tick?

    Sounds like injectors to me, is this a new sound you're heard in the same situation or a new sound in a new situation? If you can't hear it with the hood down a couple of feet away from the truck, it's likely the injectors.

    WTF? Anyone else with a Limited or Tungsten have severe chipping on your wheel well trim?

    You will find post dating back from late 2018 covering this on the DT RAM 1500s, long existing issue. The front tires will throw small pebbles to the back and those wide hips on this truck will mean both the rear fender flare and the fender itself is highly susceptible to paint chips. The only...

    Best Oil for Hemi "Tick"

    I actually thing the same way as well. I currently have two jugs of 0w-20 PUP sitting on my table, though there is a part of me wondering if I should switch to 0w30, I have to do my mandatory annual oil change (average 3,700 miles) in a couple weeks, I'll have to decide by then. I always send...

    Best Oil for Hemi "Tick"

    On a side note, quite a few mention this, but I don't know if having a quieter engine does anything towards the reliability in regards to the 5.7l. Some engines are just naturally chatty, I don't think you're improving the reliability by making it quieter, the issue in regards to the Hemi is...

    Pentastar or Hurricane I6?

    3.6L all the way if you want durability/reliability compared to the all-new buggy at the moment Hurricane. I suspect the Hurricane will have a lot less issues down the line, but right now I would avoid it. You may want to wait and see the Hemi options for 2026 model year as another option for...

    The dreaded leaking and cracked rear window frame

    The Ford sliders are the only ones that don't seem to leak (or Tundra). The suppliers for both GM and RAM are the same exact companies, two vendors I think that supplies the same design and there is a long list of Silverado/Sierra owners that have leaking rear windows as well. Switching to...

    Tire Pressure dashboard warning

    Never seen it before. I wonder since your truck is about six years old already, if it maybe has something to do with the batteries in the TPMS sensors themselves?

    Keyless entry keypad

    Not a bad idea, they sell pouches designed for that reason, I keep my keys in them to prevent signal car theft, highly recommend you keep your keys in them even when at home. This is the one I use, you get 2 for $7, looks and works great, I use this at home and also when doing outdoor...

    Oil change monitor

    Very good point, but then what do you do? The 5K is ia general safe zone in terms of cost to benefit ratio, you can probably go a bit longer, but I guess you don't know unless you do an oil analysis, but then how accurate is that along with the additional cost. 3k service was pretty standard...
