    MAP UPDATE OFFER: I have a 2019 Longhorn 12". The maps are dated 2017, which means the map data was collected no more recently than 2016.

    I tried in vain to learn when "new" maps are released. I did learn that November 2022 was the date of something, so perhaps the maps are released in November? I've been getting "offers" of a discount from the anchor price of $149 down to $99, which expires August 31, 2023. This smells like a way...

    TSB 23-032-19 LOOSE TAILGATE CABLE - Everything you need to know

    THE PROBLEM: 5th Gen Rams, at least those with the conventional tailgate, have a manufacturing defect. The distance between the mounting points for the LH and the RH tailgate cables are meant to be identical, but somehow the LH pair are closer together. When the original cables (I'll call them...

    AC AIR CONDITIONING SUNROOF HACK

    I have a 2019 and am an AC victim. I do intend to steel myself before the warranty is up this fall and visit the dealer to start the process of getting the tsb done, but even if that works, there is another design flaw in the truck that needs addressing to ever be able to tolerate the hot...

    Corona Virus, Vehicle Service and Insurance

    I live in Virginia, a state that doesn't regulate the behavior of insurance companies. Your state probably has different regulations. A family member bought a new car. As people sometimes do when they have a new car, she took a vacation in it. When she returned she had the oil changed at the...

    Review of Lomax / Agri-Cover / ACI Tri-Fold Professional Tonneau for Rambox-UPDATE

    Today is April 17, 2019. As of now there are few hard tonneau options for the 5th generation Ram with 5'7" bed and Ramboxes. I know there are other mentions of the Lomax on the forum, but this one is very detailed. The Lomax line includes three aluminum tri-fold models. They are the...

    RIDE HEIGHT - Beating a dead horse

    I know this has been discussed in various threads (including one I posted). Here is yet another contribution to the discussion: It seems ironic that the air suspension implementation for the Rebel and Off Road Group-equipped trucks is less capable than that for the other models. Looking at my...

    Could You SLEEP in a CREW Cab? Yes and No.

    (Sorry but I said "Quad" cab rather than "Crew" cab when I posted this. I'm fixing that mistake in this text. Hope I can fix the heading too. Thanks for the correxion.) I do little mods that do not affect the truck in any way. Previously I have posted my RamBox Inserts design, my...

    Cargo Rails with Rambox - $93.57

    I assembled these 4 rails to provide support for a cover to keep snow out of the bed. They may come in handy for carrying things too. Directions below. The only tools needed are a socket wrench and a vise. This project can be done for $83.92 rather than the $93.57 I paid. I purchased 2 sets...

    Rambox Insert Patterns / Instructions / Photos - Download here

    I had posted a while back (https://5thgenrams.com/community/threads/rear-dashcam-dash-cam-installation-l-also-rambox-inserts-revised-improved.3468/#post-52161) that I was working on the horizontal inserts for the Ramboxes (67" bed). That thread is so old that I decided to start a new one now...

    Now for something Completely Different . . .

    Nobody wants to see my truck, as there's nothing special about it and there are better photos on the FCA site. For the record it is a white Longhorn crew cab, off-road and eTorque. I have 15 photos to post but the limit is 10. Here are 3 samples. To see all of them, view the PDF. This truck...

    Just discovered there is only one 12V 12 volt cigarette cigar power outlet

    I'm packing for the journey to our Thanksgiving dinner. I always travel with an 80L 12V ice chest, previously in my 2000 F150 or 2010 4Runner. Both of those had two 12V outlets. I now have a Longhorn with Level 1 equipment and, despite the fact that there are 9 USB ports and 3 120V outlets, the...

    $500 Bonus Cash Allowance Incentive 41CJT ending January 2, 2019

    I did a search for "41CJT" on this forum and got no results. Since we don't have a section for Incentives, I'll just stick this information here . . . . I received another of these offers in the mail today, November 14, 2018, in response to my request for literature much earlier in the year...

    ESCAPE HAMMER / TOOL / SEATBELT-CUTTER

    I have never been good about fitting my vehicles with sensible emergency supplies and tools, but I promised myself to do better with the Ram. With all the nooks and crannies there is a place for whatever you want to carry. I know everybody should have an escape hammer, both for their own use...

    CONQUEST CASH INCENTIVE / OFFER

    I had an idea that I could research the available "Conquest Cash" offers that were available for owners of a competitive manufacturer's truck. Like all questions regarding Ram, this is no simple task. Here's what I learned. Hopefully, others can contribute scraps of information and experiences...
