Pls elaborate, is there a thread about the trans tune?

Thx. In mopar vernacular, they are called high back buckets. Color is stock B7, Jamaica Blue.

Daughter's Kia has HUD and I drive it frequently. Not at all distracting to me. The 1500 HUD can be moved around a bit to suit placement and IMO provides impt info without removing eyesight from road...speed, speed limit, location and such. Only issue which concerned me was use of polarized...

Another happy diesel owner. Bought mine in WA state, drove it home to SOCAL. Averaged almost 28mpg on 1400mi trip, one (and only) fuel stop at exactly 836mi on odo (33gal tank). First diy oil change at 5K. At almost 9Kmi, overall avg mpg at 25.1, combo freeway/city. Double the mpg from my...

Given your trip mileage I would do it ahead of time. Did my first one at 3K. Also old school (or just old), change oil more frequently than factory recommends.

As others have noted, the Bilsteins work very well for leveling. Bilstein's on the 5th ring produced a 1.8" lift on my Rebel, within a 1/4" of level. Also upgraded to the Mopar UCAs which look stock but provide additional ball joint travel. Alignment necessary and straightforward. About a...

Ordered my 21 on 30Apr last year. Dealer said they were not taking orders after 30Apr. As noted above, 2021 production ended during first week of May.

Had my car stolen at college a few eons ago. Couldn't afford gas, never more than a gallon in it. Found it next day, 5mi away, out of gas. Probably not practical for family vehicle :) Previous residence was in suburbia, nice little town but surrounded by not so nice bigger towns. Crews from...

Notice any other differences yet, like MPG?

My 2014 Tundra (sold to buy the Rebel) was Sunset Bronze Mica, the brown which preceded the Mesquite. Really liked that color.

Anyone have any updates on post update DEF usage?

The Bilstein's leveled my Rebel, within 1/4". On the 5th slot, they added about 1.8" over factory. Added the Mopar UCAs for expanded BJ travel, maintain factory appearance.

Nice rig! I'm a little partial to the 2 tone, looks good with the delmonico.

Congrats on surviving! My own encounter with the Widowmaker happened a little over 2yrs ago. Doing daily stationary bike/swimming exercises, noticed chest "tightness". Went to regular doc. EKG, BP, blood tests, xrays, no issues. Scheduled me for a cardio stress test. Night before stress...

Some of the 1500 DL reviews talk about bulging of the side panels, requiring pushpins or the like to fasten to the bed sidewall. Also, some issues with where the DL panels mate with the OE rails plastic. Did you experience any issues like these or otherwise?

Concur. DIY my first oil/filter change few weeks ago, used the Mopar filter (bought several from dieselfiltersonline.com) . ED with 33 tank, and 27+mpg freeway equals over 800mi range, roughly double that of any truck I've ever owned. Diesel in the People's Republik is not much more than...

Jamaica Blue (B7), previewed here on my RR

Yup, the People's Republik added a registration hook for the DEF update. Socialism at its finest.

Likewise, SOCAL dealers generally behave as if MSRP is a bargain. Even the Fleet/internet reps often won't budge from MSRP. I can only conclude that SOCAL car buyers generally accept the MSRP BS.

I believe sales tax is charged for the state a vehicle is registered. When I picked up my truck at Bud Clary in Auburn WA, they gave me a temporary registration so I could drive it home and didn't charge sales tax. I paid the tax when I registered the truck in socal. If an out of state dealer...
