    Lomax Stance versus Lomax Tri Fold Cover

    So i had the body shop order a Lomax Stance when doing hail repair. Got it and realized they actually installed the Lomax Tri Fold. I'm swing past tomorrow to have then look and discuss. So now with that said, I'm now wondering if I should just keep the Tri Fold. My main reasons for the...

    Battery/Electrical issues after body shop

    Update: body shop couldn't figure out the dash lights not turning off issue so took to dealer. Dealer said a module went out in steering column that was causing it. Body shop ended up getting stuck with the bill since I'm not the one that brought it in, otherwise would have been covered under...

    Battery/Electrical issues after body shop

    Callie, is there any specific guidance I can give them regarding the "Push Brake to Start and Uconnect" screens never turning off? That's what is causing the battery drain I'm sure as they won't turn off ever right now.

    Battery/Electrical issues after body shop

    Well shoot, didn't help. Guess I'm calling shop and dealer in morning. I can manually unlock truck at least if battery dies right? Father in law had a BMW that you couldn't manually unlock with key (there was a hole) if battery died.

    Battery/Electrical issues after body shop

    I ran a Foxwell battery/starter/alternator test a second ago and it all came up rose's. How long after locking truck does dash screen go black? I notice it still says press brake and push button to start. Truck is locked and I haven't touched door handle, just peeking through window. Been...

    Battery/Electrical issues after body shop

    Random thought. If shop put new battery in, would it need to re-download everything and then that massive update possibly drain the battery overnight? Just wondering.

    Battery/Electrical issues after body shop

    No water damage. Just hail. I drove it from August to January with no issues with hail damage. Body shop drop off on Jan 9th and just got it back. That light knob is so stiff I wonder if it is part of problem. I don't think it matters what I select on it, stays the same. I jumped truck...

    Battery/Electrical issues after body shop

    Got my truck back on Friday after 3 months (and 27K!) of hail damage repair. Shop told me they put a new battery in for me as mine had gone dead or low from sitting and they ran into the same transmission issue many of us have had. Took off on 2 hour drive and noticed the uconnect was all...

    RamBox Dividers - a better option!

    Made my own back in 2019 and did OK but have worn quite a bit and not as nice as these from Capt. Decided to treat myself and ordered the full set. I'm sure I'll be pleased.

    Another rust prevention question FF/Krown

    I have done Fluid Film and Woolwax black. I typically do every Fall. I like Woolwax a bit better and the black lets you know where you have missed. Just did mine yesterday actually again. So far, so good. Everything looks really, really good underneath from a rust perspective and I'm in...

    Transmission falling out of Drive on downshift, blinking, displaying "shift to P" and back

    I had a thread I started in Feb 21 where this happened to me one time, after extreme cold weather had drained my battery the day prior and recharged. The dealer tested the battery with the full test and it was bad. The answer I got was if there is a battery issue this can occur, which I said...

    Alternatives to Revolver X4?

    Hey @StuartV How well does the X4s keep the water out of the bed? My bakflip still leaked on sides and by tailgate. Now that hail ruined it, I'm considering the X4s instead when replacing

    Hail damage

    I have Auto Owners Insurance. They are coming out tomorrow to take a look. Already filed claims on both truck and house. First ones in my life, but these are no brainers based on damage to each. AOI said they don't require me to go to a certain place for the truck, so its my option.

    Hail damage

    Yeah I'm Iowa as well. Owe about 18K still and I planned on driving this for a long time. Guess nothing to do but wait for adjuster to look at it and go from there.
