    Check your exhaust hanger hardware

    Buddy called me as I was leaving his house, said to check my exhaust because he noticed as I drove away that the driver side tip was bouncing. Sure enough the bracket had corroded and failed. Of course there were things mounted around it making it a complete pain to replace, took me about 2...

    E torque alternator.

    Got my truck back last night, 41 days from failure to replacement. Dealership treated me fantastic, no complaints and I emailed the service director and praised her staff. What does the future hold on next purchase, every brand has its issues, I know this. I have 9k miles of extended warranty...

    E torque alternator.

    Ram Cares called yesterday, said the MGU has shipped and dealership will receive next week. Fingers crossed this is real.

    E torque alternator.

    Glad you got it fixed. Apparently there is no priority list/first come first served. Mine was diagnosed and ordered in Dec, died 4/19, still nothing today.

    E torque alternator.

    Service called yesterday, Apr 16th is the latest arrival date 🙄. I also called Ram support yesterday to try and escalate this delivery.

    E torque alternator.

    My truck was diagnosed in December as needing a replacement MGU, dealership ordered at that time. Driving to work Mar 19th, it failed completely. Dealership handled this fantastically, towed a loaner to my work and loaded up my truck and took it back. Now I wait, I think I’ll do as a previous...

    Proper way to use 4 wheel high and auto

    I live in MN, 4auto for light snow covered roads, 4wd when iced or 4" and above of snow. Those are my personal guides and I've never been stuck yet. I've ran 70 mph in 4wd without issue.

    E torque alternator.

    Talked to my service tech this morning, she tells me it's scheduled for a Feb 10th delivery. Reading this thread makes me doubt her, hoping she's right.

    Battery change 2020 1500 5.7 etorque

    I put in the larger battery 4 yrs ago, and will replace again this spring. I didn't do anything special the 1st time. Unhooked it in the store parking lot, bought the new and exchanged the old. Installed the new, started up and went home. No issues.

    Trim levels and Ram boxes

    Thinking of buying another Ram, also thinking of moving up to Limited or possibly Tungsten trim. Why would Ram make you have Ram boxes in these trims. I have zero use for them and would likely want another topper, which makes them useless. That said, my 2020 has been fantastic and does...

    Real Truck hooked me up !

    Glad you had a good experience with customer service. My dealings with Real Truck 4 yrs ago was a nightmare, ordered running boards, weathertech floor mats and vent visors. Running boards came with brackets to mount only on the drivers side, took two different deliveries to get the correct...

    Super Low Mileage with 2022 RAM 1500 Limited

    My truck is configured as yours w/ a topper. Computer says 18.6 mpg lifetime. I've always used mid grade 89 octane as stated in my manual, 91 octane if 89 wasn't available. I wouldn't be happy either if my truck was getting the mileage you describe. I would talk to the dealer-service dept and...
