    Perfect truck no issues

    Just thought I'd post that I've owned my 2020 Ram 1500 CC Big Horn level 2 5.7 Hemi with etorque & 3.92 rear end for 2 1/2 yrs now & 28,000 miles & I have NOT had 1 single problem with her !! Love the truck. If this continues I will keep her long term. Maybe 10 - 15 years. If not I'll trade her...

    Tranny slippin

    Transmission felt like it was slipping or couldn't find the right gear or something as I pulled off my block onto main road this morning. Truck was cold. Never has happened before. Basically it was super sluggish & felt not right. Glad there wasn't a bunch of traffic coming. Anyone else...

    Black screen of death

    Got the dreaded black screen today for the first time after leaving the bait shop to get my fishing license. No back up camera, no radio. Just a dead black screen. Shut the truck off for a minute. Turned it back on & everything is fine. Anyone else had this happen ? Just wondering if it's...

    Hope u don't need a truck anytime soon

    Just for fun I looked at a half dozen local dealers online last night. Cheapest Ram 1500 with quad cab & V-6 is $46k. BH with crew cab & 5.7 hemi is $52k - $54k. Absolutely insane !! Just praying I don't total my truck anytime soon. I wouldn't be able to afford to replace it. Looked up my trade...

    My A/C is cold 2020 Ram BH

    I keep reading about sub par A/C performance on the 2019 & 2020 Rams. My A/C is pretty darn cold. I work construction & after working in the 95 degree heat with 70 dewpoint all day I usually hit the max button for 10 minutes. After that I turn it down to like 5 because I'm freezing. So I'm not...

    Paying MSRP in Minnesota

    Just for sh_ts & giggles I checked 3 dealerships online last night. No limiteds available. Only Big Horns & Laramie. Only about 40 trucks at each dealer. Paying MSRP or at best maybe $1,000 off. Big Horns going for $53k. Laramie over $60k. This is NUTS ! I bought my 2020 Big Horn for $40k in...

    Question about extended warranty

    Chryslerfactoryplans.com vs. Chryslerwarrantydirect.com vs. www.mopar.com what's the difference between the Mopar extended warranty & the Chrysler extended warranty? Which one is better ? This is all very confusing.

    Should i wait factory warranty

    I constantly get bombarded with emails from Mopar saying last chance to get an extended warranty. If I wait until 1 month before my 3 yr/36,000 mile warranty expires to buy an extended warranty from Mopar, how much will it go up in price ?

    Compare Ram to Ford

    Comparing the f150 XLT to Ram Big Horn. The ford does not have 4x4 auto or heated steering wheel. Although u do get side steps standard. The XLT is about $2,000 more than an equally equipped Big Horn. My question is why does Ford not offer 4x4 Auto until u get to the higher trim levels ? That...

    Any regrets not getting 4x4

    With a winter weather advisory in Texas & snow in Louisiana, anyone regret getting 4x2 ? Here in Minnesota a truck is not a truck if it's not 4x4. I'm always shocked at the amount of people buying Ram trucks with 4x2 on this forum.

    A/C may be subpar, but Heat is amazing!

    It's-15 below zero right now in Minnesota. My truck heats up in less than 5 minutes. The heat works so good in my truck I have to ride in a t-shirt or turn it WAY down. Love the level 2 Bighorn with heated seats & steering wheel. Glad I don't have leather. My wife has a 2019 Kia Sorento with...

    Pulse third brake light

    The dealer already had the pulse third brake light installed when I picked up my truck. He said they install them on all their vehicles. I also had to pay $299 for it. My question is when I googled it I found out that pulsating third brake lights are technically illegal. Thoughts on this ...

    Glad i bought my Ram last April

    I'm sure thankful I bought my truck last April. Inventories are so low right now with covid-19 still an issue prices are really high. Can't touch a Bighorn level 2 for under $44k. I paid $40k for mine with LED lights & night edition ! Usually this time of year are the best deals. Not this year.

    A/C is ice cold

    Just thought I'd report that the air conditioning is ice cold in the 2020 Rams. So they must've fixed that issue from 2019. First humid day here in Minnesota for the year. 89 degrees & muggy as heck. I had my air on 5. Had to turn it down to 3 because I was freezing. Temp was set at 64 I...

    How long do u keep your trucks ?

    Personally I've never kept any vehicle more than 6 years. I'm thinking of trading in my Ram every 3 yrs now right b4 the bumper to bumper warranty expires. Anyone else do that ? What's the resale value like after 3 years ? I know they lose a ton of value in 1st & 2nd year, & then start to level...

    Built to Serve edition for Vets only ?

    Just wondering if the Built to Serve limited edition Rams are supposed to be for current & former military personnel? I love the gator green army one, but I don't think it would be right to drive around in it if u have never served your country. Am I wrong to assume that ?

    Anyone get their tires to chirp yet ?

    Just wondering what it takes to break the tires loose ? I got the 3.92 gears & 5.7 Hemi with etorque. I hit the gas pretty hard a couple times yesterday & left everyone in my dust. She reved up to around 5200 RPM. She moves fast for a truck. Just wondering what I got to do to burn some rubber...

    Rattle sound when heavy bass music on

    Has anyone noticed a rattle in their door pillar or headliner area when rap music is playing ? If a song comes on the radio with that low, long bass sound, I hear a rattle above the rear passenger door near the roof. I can't pin point exactly where it's coming from because I'm driving. I only...
