    SiriusXM streaming through truck's cellular stopped working

    Hey all, I have an odd issue. First off I live in Alaska where traditional satellite radio does not work. However for the past 2 1/2 years I have been streaming SiriusXM though my truck's cellular connection with no issues. In the past week the service stopped working. I tried resetting the...

    Rocks/Gravel in Tailgate

    So I made a trip to the local gravel place and got a load of gravel. I didn't give it any thought at the time, but after unloading I realized that lots of rocks and debris are now stuck inside the hollow area of the tailgate. Is there any way to get that stuff out of there? Every time I close...

    4x4 switch dead

    Today when I left for work I noticed that the switch that you use to switch from 2WD to 4WD AUTO etc was dead. There were no lights on it at all and pressing it did nothing. What is odd about this is I had this exact same problem in my 2014 Laramie! The dealer could never figure out what the...

    2019 Ram 1500 aces IIHS crash tests

    https://www.autoblog.com/2018/11/08/2019-ram-1500-iihs-crash-tests/ Headlights only received a marginal rating which I assume are the crappy halogens as my LEDs are awesome.

    New wheels and tires today!

    My Limited came with the 22" rims and tire package which is awful for Alaska. So I ordered a set of Velox wheels through Costco when they were on sale. I paid $700 for this set of 20s! I also put on a set of BFG KO2s in 275/55/20. I think it looks great!

    Downsizing wheels and tires from 22" to 20"

    My truck has the 22" wheel and tire set up which is not good for Alaska driving. So my plan is to downsize to a 20" rim and put some nice all terrain tires on. I already have a set of 20" Blizzaks for winter driving from my F-150. I want to hear any feedback on all terrain tires that you have...

    Disabling Seat Belt Reminder Chime

    I see in the owner's manual it says only the dealer and can turn this feature off, but I was wondering if anybody has found a way to do it yourself. Before you flame me, I always wear my seat belt. I work in a secure area that require me swipe in with a badge at a gate and that requires me to...

    Anybody know if the 2018 bed dimensions is the same as the 19?

    I want to order a bed mat, but I can't find one for the 2019. Anyone know if the dimensions are the same as the '18s? This is the mat I'm looking at.

    Sirius XM Streaming

    So I live in Alaska and there is no satellite coverage here for satellite radio. I did just discover that I can stream music through the truck's cellular connection! So my question is: 1, how long is the free trial for? 2, if I pay for the monthly package that does streaming, would I also need...

    Joined the club today

    I previously had a 2014 Laramie which I sold to buy my 2016 Ford F150 Platinum. Traded that in today for a Limited maximum steel 4x4 with E-Torque. I didn't really want the mild hybrid but the dealer gave me a pretty great deal on it. It was ordered for the owner of the dealership and had 330...

    Laggy touch screens

    I've been watching a lot of YouTube videos and in a few of them the large touchscreens seem very laggy/buggy. In one video the guy claims it's because of poor satellite reception. Here's a video. https://youtu.be/XjqcEdo6XJc?t=5m1s thoughts?
