    Power tilt mirror erratic in cold temps

    I have the tow mirrors and I like the power tilt option on the passenger side upon shifting to reverse because I back in to my tight space garage tight and it helps with providing a line of sight with my visual ground markers on that side of the vehicle. During the warm months I never have an...

    Offline search within uconnect Nav

    I'm posting a new thread for those of us with the problem of not having online search and voice prompt in the uconnect nav. It's been discussed in other threads but I thought it would be cleaner to start a new one so that we can track any possible solutions or developments.

    Dog hair

    Does anyone have any time proven tricks on getting pet hair out of carpet? I have a couple dogs that I keep caged up but they both shed and hair still gets everywhere. I cannot find a vacuum hose attachment that will help easily unseat the hairs that get stuck in the carpet fibers while still...

    Auto collision braking v. Deer! It works!

    I was driving home tonight and I had the max distance adaptive cruise on at 60 mph and a family of deer ran out on the road about 75-100 yards in front of me. With seeing my headlights some of the deer stopped in the middle of the road. Without this system I am sure I would have had a cluster...

    Compliment from a Cadillac Escalade owner

    I had a few non-Ram guys in my truck today where I offered to drive to a golf scramble. All of them were talking about how they have never been "Ram" guys but they were really impressed. Two of the guys drive newer model Ford trucks, one guy drives a 2018 Caddy Platinum Escalade. Caddy owner...

    Wheel and Tire care

    Curious what y'all are doing to combat and protect the wheels and adjacent areas from the crazy brake dust from these new gen Rams. Also, does anyone have experience with using Superclean on the "painted and polished aluminum" wheels as Ram calls mine? I have always used Superclean on my...

    Orange Peel

    I guess the first question is does anyone not have orange peel issues with their Ram? And second, has anyone taken the step of getting the orange peel tapered down? I would imagine it would involve wet sanding but my concern is it may compromise the clear coat thickness to the point where UV...

    Touch-up paint sticks

    Anyone know where to buy mopar touch up paint sticks? Specifically for the diamond black crystal pearl? I have been on mopar and I cannot find the match and the other options on the web are sketchy items without any reviews. I thought about calling the local RAM dealer and see if they could...

    Cleaning leather interior

    I have the black and cattle brown interior and while I found a few threads with some recommendations on cleaning and conditioning, I was wondering if you guys had any input or suggestions on products to steer clear of or positively recommend. I have seen positive reviews on the chemical guys...

    Christmas road trip plans with your Ram?

    I felt like this would be a fun festive thread. We are all celebrating (and also commiserating to some degree) the fun and trials of breaking in the new RAM gen. I'm driving the new truck for a Christmas family weekend gathering 800 miles round trip with my wife, daughter and two shedding...

    Declined the extended warranty dealer pitch

    Purchased my 1500 over the weekend. I passed on the extended warranty and gap protection pitch from the business manager. The business manager explained that while I have 3yrs or 30,000 on the bumper to bumper, it is really only true bumper to bumper on EVERYTHING for 1 yr or a certain mileage...

    Sunshade/sunroof issue

    Bought a 2019 longhorn today. Very happy with the purchase, but... Has the panoramic sunroof and I took it off the lot and I was driving it home with the wifey and I asked her to close the sunshade because it was dark out and we didn't need it open. She hit the overhead buttons, left, right and...
