    Meet The 2021 Ram 1500 TRX – The Ultimate Raptor Killer:

    I'm very excited about this. There's a 50% chance I'll put a deposit down on a launch edition if I can find a dealer to do it at invoice. Also depends on what the CPA thinks given this is a company truck. I only have one gripe, and this black being the only interior option. Sure the stitching...

    Wifi password incorrect

    Old thread but I want to add. My truck never would let me connect to it, regardless of weather the truck was connected to the network. Then I did an over the air software update and it started working after that. 3 weeks ago I decided to go hunting with my father in law and son. The property has...

    Navigation Cleaner?

    Lol. Only this doesn't shine. Hands down best interior cleaner on the market, and I've used a lot of them. Quick spray on the screen and instrument cluster. Looks brand now and doesn't attract dust.

    How to preserve that new car smell as long as possible

    Nexzett "kok"pitt Premium for overall interior care. You can spray on anything. I also use their leather "lederpflege" for all the leather surfaces. If there are bad jean stains on the seats (i have indigo frost) is use their deep plastic cleaner. You can view all their stuff here...

    Navigation Cleaner?

    Order Nextzett ****pit Premium. You can literally spray it on anything, wipe it down and it will look brand new. It's safe for all of your buttons, screens everything. It's a top level detailing supply made in Germany. Smells great also! Edit. Are you joking me. I can't spell "Kokpitt"...

    Front Passenger Legroom

    YOu need to talk to her wife. She's got it all wrong. Growing up my mom always had S class Mercedes, S500, 550, etc. I remember when I first started driving I'd borrow it every now and then. One day I went to go pick one of my best friends up. When I got to his house he hopped in the back seat...

    Front Passenger Legroom

    I'm 6'5" and perfectly proportional. A true 6'5" BTW. Not Dwayne Johnson 6'5" (he's around 6'2"). I have ample room in drivers seat and passenger seat. Every bit as good as my previous chevy. And this truck is much more comfortable.

    Mopar’s “Ram Airflow” Cold-Air Intake System For Ram 1500:

    No clue. I do know that the dyno doesn't always tell the whole story. A lot of Jeeps dynod great with an air intake or exhaust, however on the streets never picked up performance. Generally they got slower. Another prime example. Aftermarket supercharger versus OEM. There are a lot of Jeep guys...

    Mopar’s “Ram Airflow” Cold-Air Intake System For Ram 1500:

    Yup. The sad reality is that in 2019, new vehicles rarely gain anything from exhaust/intake and in the case of naturally aspirated vehicles, a tune. These computers are locked down. on the SRT Jeeps, guys would swear up and down how their tune, intake, and exhaust increased performance. At the...

    FCW Caused Accident! - Forward Collision Warning Malfunction?

    I was one of them. ON my SRT Jeep I just risked it, but it ruined the lines of the vehicle. For me, a truck is a truck. I nailed the crapped out of shins a good 20+ times before I finally got used to it being on there (this was a few trucks ago). Another member is correct that it won't always...

    FCW Caused Accident! - Forward Collision Warning Malfunction?

    I'm going to have to agree with him ^. If you follow drivers education training and defensive driving techniques to the letter, then automatic baking is a great tool. However, most drivers, myself included, do not. I have the warning on but braking disengaged because I know how I drive. The...

    Best place to purchase Mopar official Mopar warranty- dont buy from local dealer!

    Mine did as well. They did try some ******** saying that the ziegler warranty isn't the same but I ***** slapped them down on that real quick.

    What Fuel is everyone using?

    Understood, however it is backed by science. The origins of my knowledge on this are based on an article in a boating magazine. My father had numerous "Cigarette boats" growing up. Back then one of the popular workhorse motors was a Mercruiser 502. I believe it had 415 HP. Another was the Merc...

    What Fuel is everyone using?

    89 only. A few facts: 1. Putting a higher octane than your car is tuned for is a waste of money. It provides zero benefit. It does not burn cleaner, it does not provide more HP, etc. A total waste of money 2. Putting a lower octane than your car is tuned for is not good for the motor. Does...

    What an Amazing Truck!

    The thought has crossed my mind but this is my work truck, and I love having a completely stock truck with warranty. I've been around plenty of modded cars, I'm very familiar with warranty laws, and the hassle of modded cars isn't something I want to deal with. My wife has an Escalade and I've...

    Tires for 22 inch stock wheels.

    Old thread, I know. Has anyone put on a 305/45r22 street tire? I want something wider and slightly taller. I also want the best quality street tire money can buy. I want to keep the stock ride and hopefully pick up a better speed rating. Any input is appreciated.

    What an Amazing Truck!

    Interesting. Out of curiosity where do you live? I'm in Houston and $7-8k off is standard on any truck (minus Raptor) without even trying. I posted in the MSRP thread my general rule of thumb on trucks, but didn't feel like arguing with people so I stopped posting. Usually with a little pushing...

    Air ride lift kit

    Is there a 1" available. I don't want there to be any possibility of the back looking even slightly lower than the front. Or does the 2" in the front still leave a very slight rake? God forbid I get confused with the glue eating nephsons that like to squat their trucks!

    Automatic Braking while Backing up?

    IT's good to know I'm not the only one with these issues. My wife's Escalade has the backup braking, and it's scared the **** out of me on multiple occasions. The Rams system is more aggressive. If I back up too quickly it will slam on the brakes long before I am even remotely close to anything...
