    Thoughts on Dealer Installed Michelins to replace stock 22" before shipping ?

    Hard to beat the Michelin Defender for all around roadability including wet and snow covered roads. Wear and handling are also excellent. It's all I've put on my cars and trucks over the last 15 years or so including my wife's cars. I'm from Michigan so we get our share of snow and ice related...

    Ivory tri coat pearl or bright white??

    My 19 Ram Laramie (Delmonico Red Pearl tricoat) has been repaired twice in my dealers shop. One hit was just below the grill in the front and the other was on the rear quarter between the wheel well and the tail light. Both have been repainted and you can not see where the paint has been...

    Price negotiated from MSRP

    When I bought my 19 Ram Laramie the only one that had the options I wanted was in Kokomo Indiana. The dealer made the trade and drove to Kokomo to get it. When it was delivered to me it had 605 miles on it. It had been involved in 2 dealer trades so it went from a dealer in Sterling Heights Mi...

    Ram / Mopar Bed Utility Ram Installation

    Check out the method (my post #8) in the video referenced above for installing the Rivnuts. I'll post the link again as this method works great, it just takes a bit longer than the installation tool but the nuts won't spin when installed this way as you can tell when they are tight...

    Laramie with smaller tires/rims?

    Take a look at the Rebels, they come with 18's IIRC

    Air conditioning performance

    I believe the fan pulls air through the seat. A piece of paper on the seat back will stick if the fan is running and fall when it's switched off.

    I just don't get it

    My 19 Laramie had the same issue and Invisible Glass wouldn't cut the film. I went to Griot's Garage Premium Foam cleaner from Autozone and it did a much better job. I did protect the paint from the cleaner also.

    Moonroof squeaking. What to use?

    I appreciate that fact but my point was that if it's under warranty why not let the dealer do it. I'm not coating anything with anything when it's under warranty.

    Moonroof squeaking. What to use?

    What's wrong with the dealer if it's under warranty. Very little good comes from adding lubricant where it's not needed as it can collect dust and dirt and inhibit operation. It may need a small adjustment as my 19 Laramie has no squeaks.

    Nervous about buying a 2019 1500 Laramie

    I don't believe there is a setting to change the speakers when the phone is in use as it should be using them all. You could try resetting the radio or pulling the negative battery terminal for an hour or so. This seems to cure a lot of these fiddly issues with the radio. It will take an hour or...

    xm presets saving, but suddenly reverting to previous presets out of the blue

    If it's still under warranty, tell the dealer it's not working right and let them figure it out.

    “In and out” sales process?

    I'll blame you for forcing me to post the Ned Beatty had the hardest part song.

    2021 Software and Map Update

    Thanks for the post. I had been setting on my update and maps for a few days. The software update took about 30 min. and the map update slightly less. The system is working well and I also see the improvement in the weather maps. There are also more side streets on the new map install then the...

    Anyone recommend where to buy OEM parts at the best discount

    I've used a couple of local Ram dealers with the 15% off coupon they have on their site. Price comes close to internet offers and the shipping is free to the dealers as the parts just come in the truck with their other parts. Just need to pick them up at the dealer.

    SiriusXM Android Auto?

    I'd try the new phones first. You should be prompted for the necessary info when you use AA the first time. Good luck

    SiriusXM Android Auto?

    I use Amazon Music hd from the Android auto app through the cable connection. I have a Samsung Z flip3. The only issue is I can't scan through more than 6-7 songs but the sound is fine on the 12" HK system in my 19 Laramie.

    Meanwhile back up in Toronto....

    Mid-Michigan here, probably close to your climate. I planned to keep my 2019 Ram a long time and chose a Laramie to avoid the air suspension and fold down steps. I did buy the sunroof option along with about every option available on the Laramie. Be sure to get the blind spot detection and the...

    Usb software update

    If you go to Here.com and have navigation on your truck, they will sell you the upgrade on a USB stick and new nav software for $99. The other problem with just buying any update is you'll want to be sure it's OK for your application based on the truck's VIN. Here will ask for the VIN. Read...

    Limited vs Laramie, air suspension, tires questions

    I bought my Laramie because I didn't want air suspension, 22 wheels and folding running boards. With all the other options it was within sight of a lower level Limited. With the options you want I'd price and probably buy the Limited because you will also get better leather, ventilated rear...
