    V-8

    People my age were all about engines in cars and now it seems more like nobody really cares. Tons of people buy cars without even giving two shakes what engine is in it or even if the model comes with more than one engine as an option. They just care if the engine starts and moves the car down...

    Drip Charger question

    1 amp will be more than enough to top off your battery in a few days then the light will go green and will trickle (drip) as needed. If you go with the 5 amp NOCO it will probably be topped off in less than one day then trickle as needed.

    Squirrely steering after alignment ?

    On my last truck having all 4 of my tires slightly over inflated made it handle a little squirrely. I'd at least check all the pressures.

    Which 3rd brake light to get?

    Ha looks like your doing the flowable sealer treatment. Did you apply it pre-emptively or did you have a leak? Also did you apply any sealer above the sliding window (Below the third brake light)?

    2022 1500 LED Headlight Recommendations

    I did the bulbs that were recommended by lasfit. I also adjusted them down a little bit. They look great and have yet to be flashed by oncoming.

    I've Let The Battery Go Dead

    I don't drive the truck for a week or two at a time as I'm riding the motorcycle whenever possible. I've been hooking up my noco 1 amp battery maintainer every so often. It shows a breathing red light when it's working and as you can imagine it takes forever to fully charge the battery. I forgot...

    Tell me about what kind of insurance coverage I can get away with

    I owned my last truck for 17 years ( 07 Dodge Ram ) and had full coverage on it the entire time and never made a claim on it. For the last 10 years that I had it I had enough money in the brokerage account that I could have replaced it at any time without needing a loan. Does that mean I should...

    Clunk when braking

    Friend of mine took his Subaru in for that sound. They had the interior almost all the way out before finding the baseball.

    2025 Quality

    I doubt people with an ax to grind would turn to electrical gremlins as a form of protest. Thats more of a programming/hardware issue.

    Cheap TPMS sensors

    I'm seeing lots of cheap TPMS sensors for like $28 for a set from china. Are these crap and how do I know what ones will work with my 2021 ram 1500 bighorn?

    Am i missing something with the radio!?

    Try opening all the doors and putting it in the middle then walking around and putting your head in front of each speaker one at a time. This will allow you to hear each speaker head on. Make sure your phone is not connected. Other than that I don't know.

    Kinda cool product…….but price, yikes.

    It is kind of cool i guess but yeah there has to be a solution you could do with a rope or cargo strap.

    Can confirm Rams at Belvedere

    As someone who works at a non-Stellantis car factory I can confirm that there is a good reason people say you shouldn't buy the first year of an all-new car model. Even though in this case it's still a 5th gen there is significant changes for 2025 model year. There are always extra cars stacked...

    Home Garage Parking Suggestions

    At my last house a hung a mirror on the front wall at a 45 degree angle so I can see the floor then put a black and white board on the floor up against the wall. I can literally see my front bumper and the wall as I pull close. Now I use the tennis ball but I have it to the side where it come to...

    USB Audio - Not remembering last song played

    It's the 8 point something inch screen. I'm not worried about having to hit the volume to start playing MP3. It's such a small nuisance.

    4th Gen 1500 big horn LED Hikari installed on 5th gen 1500 big horn

    I ordered the bulbs that Lasfit recommended for me (LC air I think) and they worked fine. After I ordered they sent me an email confirming my truck. I assumed they were double checking that I ordered the correct stuff and there was no other correspondence after that. They did work great but I...

    Odometer stopped working

    I had my last truck for 17 years and traded it in with 55,000 miles on it. I live 6 miles from work and ride a motorcycle whenever possible. I'd be supper happy if I owned a Ram with 200,000 that still ran and wasn't completely rusted out. (also like my last truck)
