    Cab to Box seal missing?

    My truck is an April 2019 build and it has all 3 rubber seals. I feel like there's a lot of air cavities under the truck that adds wind noise. My wife's 2016 Jeep Grand Cherokee has plastic panels in a few area to help with this.

    How to properly break in an engine?

    I bought my RAM about 90 miles from home so I had to drive home all highway. Pretty much the whole way I was varying RPM with 50-90 MPH pulls by rolling into the throttle slowly followed by engine braking. Probably did that 20+ times since I had plenty of miles to eat up. I also drive in...

    Loud Noise on Startup

    I'm at 6895 miles on my 2019 Laramie that was built in April 2019 and I bought in May 2019. I recently did a 2000 miles road trip with my wife and gotta say the truck ran flawlessly. We did a lot of in town driving and I would do a lot of regular push button starts and maybe heard the bang 3...

    Loud Noise on Startup

    Now at 2500 miles I just do remote start or light pressure on the brake pedal in cab. I've gotten maybe 5 clunks in the last 6+ weeks and when they have happened they are super faint. Besides that the truck runs solid and am very happy with it. All the clicking noises on start up must be...

    Price negotiated from MSRP

    The dealership where I bought my truck just decreased the dealership discount when RAM increased the rebates for June. Either way it was the same $14k off. For the money RAM is definitely kicking Ford's and Chevy's ***. The new Silverados are just awkwardly shaped in person and so ugly. Having...

    Loud Noise on Startup

    For the last 3 weeks I've almost exclusively used remote start and not once have I heard the bang. The few times I did use the push button start it banged 2 or 3 times, some of them really faint. I'll try the light break pedal tomorrow and see if it bangs. I don't mind using remote start on cold...

    Magnaflow 12288 muffler?

    Here's a very short Borla 40353 14" muffler cold start. I noticed this muffler doesn't have any packing on the inside compared to the Magnaflow so to me it sounds perfect. Sent from my ONEPLUS A6013 using Tapatalk

    Magnaflow 12288 muffler?

    I ended up ordering the Borla 14" muffler. 3" in 3" out double offset. I'm hoping to get it installed this week. I'll post videos once I get it done. Sent from my ONEPLUS A6013 using Tapatalk

    *UPDATE* $250 Rebate on ALL New Rams

    Just got my approval email today too. Now I'm thinking maybe I can go full catback vs just muffler swap? Sent from my ONEPLUS A6013 using Tapatalk

    Loud Noise on Startup

    Why would you get charged $169 for a warranty concern? Since Tuesday when I got my last bang on start up I've only used remote start and it hasn't banged once. I was parking my truck and I saw a red 2019 Ram Rebel a couple spots away. I parked and lowered my windows right when the owner came out...

    Loud Noise on Startup

    Yesterday on the one bang I did get I backed into the curb stop, let it roll forward a couple inches then put it in park and that's when it banged on the in cab start. Then this morning I parked the truck the same way but did the remote start and there was no bang. I'm hoping there's a TSB for...

    Loud Noise on Startup

    The thing is with the bang on startup being random I already know the dealer is going to keep my truck for a day and say they couldn't replicate it. I have to bring my truck in for the airbag recall anyway but I know about the bang I'll be told to kick rocks. The bang happened again last night...

    *UPDATE* $250 Rebate on ALL New Rams

    I was finally able to submit my rebate request. I actually didn't have a car at the time of purchase but my last car was a 2018 Mustang GT. Hopefully I get an approval email soon. $250 is about 3 tanks of gas. Sent from my ONEPLUS A6013 using Tapatalk

    Loud Noise on Startup

    I'm at almost 600 miles on a 3 week old 2019 Ram 1500 with the 5.7L built on April 20th 2019. It has happened 5 or 6 times. Like others I can't really replicate it, it just happens randomly. First time was at 450 miles or so. Some are louder than others. Other than that the truck runs great...

    Price negotiated from MSRP

    I'd say $50k max. That's a 6 month old build that was probably driven hard. Sent from my ONEPLUS A6013 using Tapatalk

    Magnaflow 12288 muffler?

    I'm about to order my 14" muffler. Jegs has a $20 coupon for over $150 so I'll pay $161 shipped for the 12198 Magnaflow and the weather tech mud flaps. Use coupon code SAVENOW. I let my wife drive yesterday and I was in the passenger seat and her and I agreed we hear no V8 rumble lol. Sent...

    New owner of a 2019 Laramie 4x4 Crew Cab

    My 2018 Mustang GT (same 5.0) had rod bearing and camshaft damage at 5600 miles. Needed a new long block so I requested a buy back and was approved. The motor ate about 2 quarts of oil and had the nastiest rattle through out the RPM range. I'm guessing it was rod knock. Ford, never again. Sent...

    Magnaflow 12288 muffler?

    Here's my stock exhaust warm start. I don't want it too loud anyway so maybe the 14" muffler is perfect for my needs. I looked under the car and all I see is the resonators by the tips, the coffee can Infront of the rear axle and the cats towards the manifolds. Could you get some revving...
