    Charge more and give less, this covers warranty and insurance these days.

    My truck and a pole

    You mentioned the back-up sensors didn't warn you in your first post, just to confirm, you have the auto brakes shut-off, but your rear sensors are still operational? The center console toggle for the rear sensors are still on?

    My truck and a pole

    How much is your deductible? Also, how important to you that your truck will have damage/collision history on a car history report? The damage looks small, a good PDR guy and probably remove the ding for about $100-$150 range, maybe even cheaper. The good PDR guys can do ding removal even...

    Coolant Temperature rides when Idle.

    I don't think it's normal either, are you loosing coolant at all in your expansion tank?

    Coolant Temperature rides when Idle.

    I've never smelled coolant, though my nose isn't super sensitive, but I will tell you your temps are 100% normal in the 6 years I've owned my truck. I've always used the exact digital temps versus those dummy gauges, and your temp cycle is the way your truck is supposed to work. However, that...

    Maintenance on Ram Site

    For DIY records you posted, they are there, I get that message sometimes (for the last few months), I have to fiddle with some of the links to get to the right section, but they are all there. Their website sucks since they likely have a 3rd party handling it these days, thanks Tavares. I...

    Corsa exhaust for Hurricane

    I mean most of the BMWs and GTRs I've heard with their inline twin turbos sound pretty awesome, but then do you want a loud, crackle tune sound coming from your big truck? Though if I had a hurricane, I'd probably do that, try to make it sound like an F80, probably do something with a blow-off...

    Friday Service?

    I think like you, when I have work done on my vehicles, like say Discount Tire rotation & balance, I always try to get it scheduled ideally at 10am, Tuesday through Thursday. I avoid Monday mornings or Friday afternoons. However in the case of Stellantis service departments, I highly doubt...

    What is this noise?

    Gotcha, it's up to temp and rhythmic which usually doesn't mean a dropped lifter, which tends to have an irregular tick or lifter portion only which tends to go away after a few minutes. Sounds like an exhaust leak, but not a little one that goes away after it warms up, but maybe a few...

    What is this noise?

    Is this only when cold, hot, does it go away after the engine warms up?

    Gas Mileage???

    Emissions and improved performance. The Hurricane produces less than half the CO2 the Hemi does while producing more power overall. There really isn't a way to tune the current Hemi to make it emissions compliant for the future. They need a clean sheet redesign, which is what GM is doing for...

    Ram Pulls The Covers Off Of The Updated 2025 Ram 1500

    Agree for the most part, but those pulling light poles out of the streets has been happening since the Super Bowl has been happening, especially East Coast Super Bowl winners do stuff like that all the time.

    12” screen not working after welding on frame

    Wow, that's definitely an issue. You try the dealership, assuming still under warranty? It could simply be a failure with the system and the welding just a happy coincidence, especially since you took the correct step of disconnecting the battery before welding, and also a welding surge protector?

    12” screen not working after welding on frame

    It can take hours for all the modules to come back online, I would wait a few more hours, you should be fine. This is a well known "trait" on the RAM and a lot of modern vehicles. If I disconnect my battery I prefer to do it at night so when I wake up it's all good to go. You should have no...

    Fuel tank capacity

    Awesome, thanks for posting! The OP should be able to confirm now, can't wait to see what he finds out.

    Fuel tank capacity

    Gotcha, what about the fuel estimate before you filled up, you based it on the fuel gauge position? If there is no miscalculation, they you have to have the wrong size tank at least stated on your window sticker. In wonder if there is a decal or label on the fuel cell you can confirm with?
  17. SD Rebel

    Fuel tank capacity

    I think the tank capacity is pretty accurate, 23 should not mean 30. Most people complain their tanks seems smaller than advertised. There is a miscalculation somewhere. Or the window sticker is wrong. Double check your build sheet to confirm tank size, which you can download from the Mopar...

    HEMI coming back to RAM 1500?!

    He's got in a bit click bated recently, though I agree he's generally pretty accurate.

    What are you towing?

    Just got a brand new 2023 Yamaha Waverunner VX Cruiser HO. It's technically 2 years old, but has never been in the water. The previous owner bought it as a spare ski and never used it, now getting a boat so he needed the space. Only about 1,100 lbs ski and trailer, so not exactly impressive...

    HEMI coming back to RAM 1500?!

    The Ecoboost 3.5L makes 400 hp / 500 lb-ft, while the Hurricane S.O. makes 420 hp / 469 lb-ft. The difference is 20 hp more for the Hurricane, but 31 lb-ft more torque for the Ford. In terms of engine wear, I read that higher torque has more effect on engine wear over time than higher hp...
