    A couple of questions

    He called it the "start/stop battery". Told me it is located beside the main battery, which it isn't, or behind the rear seat. Here is a pic of the icon that lit up. Said it would drain the main battery more if I didn't turn the stop/stop off. The light was off when I drove home from work.

    Portable air compressor

    I don't need to air down the tires, it's a Logging Road, it's not too bad, mainly just in case we get back after the week and we happen to have a low tire. I do have a full size spare. Sent from my SM-S901U using Tapatalk

    Portable air compressor

    I'm heading to Canada for a fishing trip. We don't go way far off the grid, but far enough. We have been going for 20+ years without incident, but I was thinking a portable compressor. Any recommendations? I was looking at Viair 85P or 88P. Leaning towards 88P, heavier wires and longer air hose.

    Fog Lights

    Driving to work the other morning it was smoky/foggy, I wanted to turn the fog lights on. The headlights were on "auto" and not on. The fog lights would not come on. From reading the manual, it appears the fog lights won't come on unless the headlights or parking lights are on. Is there a way to...

    Nerf Bars

    I'd like to get nerf bars for my 2020 ram. I've been looking for frame mount but can't find any. Westin only makes bars that bolt to the rockers. Talking to the local accessory dealer, he said factory running boards bolt to the rockers. He said there are already pre drilled and tapped holes for...

    New Key FOB

    I ordered a aftermarket fob from Amazon. Locksmith wanted $105 to program and then wasn't able to do it. So I want to the dealer and they charged me $75. Never thought the dealer would be cheaper.

    2021 1500 transmission issues/quirks

    I bought a 2020 1500 back in January, 1500 3.6L. 17K miles. I have 20K+ now. If I am babying it, 1st to 2nd to 3rd is jerky, If I accelerate fast, it is smooth. The other issue is going slow, I go thru town and a school zone every morning, 20-25 mph. The trans shifts up to 5th at those slow...

    Phone mount

    I just installed the Course with the cradle mount tonight. Pretty much exactly what I was looking for. I just hope the plastic ring for the ball mount holds up. The only other issue was pulling the panel off. I had to give it a pretty good yank, it took quite a bit of pulling before it finally...

    Phone mount

    I've been searching phone mount options and the only thing I seem to find here is BulletPoint and Proclip. Both seem nice but expensive. Are there any other decent options out there? I don't want one that clips to the vent. I've had the suction cup ones on my last truck and in my car now which...

    Vent mode

    I think I figured it out. If I turn A/C off and turn the temp down below outside temp, outside air is blown thru the vents without cooling.

    Transmission issue?

    I forgot to mention I've only had this for a couple months. I've maybe put 2000 miles on it. It only has 19K miles.

    Transmission issue?

    2020 Big Horn 1500 V6. Drove it today after it had been sitting for a week. Took off and turned about 1/4 mile after leaving home and when I hit the gas after the turn it jerked really hard a couple times. I'm assuming it was the transmission, maybe something happened when it shifted? It wasn't...

    Vent mode

    2020 1500 Big Horn, auto climate. Is it possible to have a “vent mode”, just outside air blowing through without heat or ac?

    Shudder at slow speeds

    2020 1500 Big Horn Crew cab 3.6L ETorque. I just bought this a few weeks ago. I notice it shudders at slow speeds, mainly due to being in 5th gear at 25-30mph. It feels like it is in too high of a gear? Also at slow speeds, when letting off the gas I get a slight jerk, is this from the etorque...

    2021 Big Horn Front Bumper Fix, leave it or replace?

    I just bought a 202 Big Horn from a dealer a few weeks ago. I decided to remove the front license holder since we don't have front plates in Ohio. When I went to take it off I noticed a big dent in the bumper behind it, only 2 bolts were holding it on. There are no aftermarket bumpers available...
