    Beeping at highway speeds. someone please help.

    It seems most plausible that it's wind whistle, but your observation, "It is also worse when the radio is on. No, if the radio is off it does not stop" might indicate an issue with the noise cancellation system. Noise cancellation will work harder at higher speeds and in the wind as it's...

    Help me decide, Big Horn Night Edition or Laramie Sport

    Between those two, I would pick the Laramie. If it's $2-$3K higher without sunroof or expensive night edition package then it likely has many many more features that you may find valuable and it will retain a much higher resell value. I think it looks nicer and will have a much nicer...

    Beeping at highway speeds. someone please help.

    You can't possibly know that something that sounds like a wind whistle on a video is not a wind whistle.

    Need Help ! Need to change tail lights 5th Gen to 4 th Gen.

    You seem to be angry about the crap you received but you received exactly what you earned with the information you voluntarily provided in your original post. You were there one who volunteered that you had wrecked your friends truck and could not afford to return it to the condition it was...

    Beeping at highway speeds. someone please help.

    Video sounds like wind whistle to me as well. Someone mentioned operating your wipers to see if it changes. You might also try folding in your outside mirrors when the noise is occurring to see if it changes. Increasing your radio volume might also fix it.

    Why do they insist on 22” rims on limited?

    The overwhelming majority of Limited Rams in my area do not contain an option package that includes the 22 inch wheels but the dealers still often orders them as a stand alone option. Here is an example of the most common Limited in my area. They are far more common than trucks with the night...

    Blackstone analysis

    More of your self appointed expert nonsense. Some people who read these forums are easily manipulated by fake expert advice just like yours and tend to over-think, needlessly spend, and see non-existent problems. There is no need or advantage to routine oil analysis especially when changing...

    Stop sending your oil off for analysis and just enjoy your truck.

    Engine Break In.

    Given that almost no vehicle owners ever give a moment's of thought to a break in period your best bet would be to visit a psychiatrist to see if they can erase any memory of this topic from your mind so you can just drive your truck normally without needless worry.

    Why do they insist on 22” rims on limited?

    Correct, every option package I tried, except for Night Edition, left the standard 20 inch wheels remain. I think most dealers are just ordering them with the 22 inch wheels. Most dealers in my area also seem to order every limited with a sun roof. I had to shop many dealers before finding...

    Tires

    No simply going to a tire that's about 1/2 inch taller and about a 1/2 inch narrower will not really be better for anything. However, it will make your speedometer read about 1 mph slower than what you are actually traveling unless you have it reprogrammed.

    Music on USB flash drive

    No that's not normal. Mine will restart in the middle of the song that was last playing.

    Music on USB flash drive

    I don't think size matters as much as how the drive is formatted. I use a 128gb drive formatted NTFS. I'm pretty sure both Uconnect 4 and 5 require drives formatted either FAT32 or NTSF will work. However, many new drives 64gb and large come formatted as exFat drives and that won't work...

    Got my first truck and it's a 2020 Ram limited

    Within the first week of owning the truck I ordered Mopar Splash Guards, Bed Rug and Leer tonneau cover. I also installed front and rear dash cameras. I'm pretty much done with the mods.

    Engine Break In.

    After 300 miles your break-in is done. Drive it normally. Complex break ins and special break in oils are intended for engine builders (mostly small shops and backyard mechanics) who cannot consistently manufacture to precise tolerances. As a result they built engines tighter than desired...

    DT Acceleration Slow Compared to DS

    Yes, my 23 is noticeably slower than my 2012 Big Horn and 2017 Laramie, but both of my previous trucks were quad cabs vs current crew cab so I suspect they were significantly lighter. I wish they made the limited in quad cab as I think it looks much sportier and I no longer haul kids around.

    Got my first truck and it's a 2020 Ram limited

    It's supposed to be in between the 2 lines when cold. Don't add when the coolant is hot and don't stress over it being below the line.
