    Hopefully a simple question.

    Here's how I see it: Without the trailer, the truck weighed 5880 (3360+2520). With the trailer, the total weight was 10,780 (3160+3700+3920). The difference between those two weights is 4900, which should be the weight of the trailer, assuming nothing else changed in the truck's load. If the...

    Lost presets

    Lost my presets a couple of days ago. I did the procedure listed above, and my presets are retained now. The procedure may be a little cumbersome, but it works.

    Feedback please

    I recommend sticking with a Mopar warranty. I had a third party warranty once, and when I took the truck into a Chrysler/Mopar dealer for service, they charged me $75 extra because they had to deal with a third party warranty. I can't say that's true with all dealers, but I have seen those...

    Good to be aboard just about read to pull the trigger on 2019 4x4 Ram 1500 hemi Gas Laramie air Susp. elec running boards , 3.92 limited slip rear pan

    I'll try to summarize a couple of key points that you can find reading around this forum. Be aware that the trailer tow package eliminates the power folding mirrors and the 360 surround view -- two very nice features. Read around on these forums and you'll see many buyers lamenting getting the...

    Air ride suspension... or not???

    Definitely check the air pressure in the tires. When I took delivery of my Limited, the dealer prep tech had set the tires to 44 psi, which is 8 psi more than what is recommended on the sticker.

    19 Ram 1500 5.7 Bed to a Rambox bed can it be done?

    I love my RamBoxes. I can see why you'd like to have them. Another thing you would have to do is have the lock cylinders on the RamBox keyed to your vehicle. They lock and unlock with the power locks, so that would probably be a flash. There is also a 115V outlet in the Rambox. The wiring...

    Getting Info

    You are wise to step back and do some research before buying the first truck you see. You'll be spending upwards of $45-50,000, and you should get exactly what you want, even if that means ordering one and waiting or buying out of state. My Limited has nearly all the options, and that makes it...

    Man's best friend

    This is a real nice hammock seat cover. Thick, waterproof, and easy to install and remove. Get the X-Large size. We use it for our two Basset Hounds. Plus Paws Quilted Hammock Cover

    Trying to order a black edition Laramie

    No stop and go on the non-eTorque V-8. I don't miss it. Had it on a Jeep Cherokee and hated it.

    2019 loaded Limited vs loaded Laramie, what features would be lost on the Laramie?

    An easy way to do this comparison is using the printed 2019 Ram 1500 brochure. In a quick read of the feature availability starting on page 37, here are the features I saw available on the Limited and not the Laramie: Chrome body side moldings Full LED Headlamps with Signature lighting...

    Axle ratio

    As others have said, you should probably be towing that trailer with a 2500. Or switch to a lighter trailer. Don't trust an RV dealer when he says your truck can pull it.

    Part in glove box? Part number 68361100AC plastic cover for tailgate removal

    This forum is great! I found the same item in my glovebox and wondered what it was for. Now I know. Thanks for the information!

    Lvl 2 equipment group and advanced safety group

    I've had the adaptive cruise on my Mopars since 2012, and I won't buy a vehicle without it. All the safety features in the ASG can be customized to reduce or eliminate annoyances. On some the sensitivity can be adjusted, and on the auto braking feature, you can turn off the auto braking but...

    Opinion on Bed Utility Group with Laramie Longhorn

    I just took delivery of a Limited with Rambox and no BUG. I did not receive the divider. I had the dealer check, and they said it isn't included with the Rambox. This is consistent with what others have reported. I think that had I ordered the BUG with the Rambox I would have received the...

    2019 RAM 1500 LARAMIE - trailer tow package

    As 19llhpb said, you will not get the power folding mirrors or the 360 view if it has a Trailer Tow Package. Since you also wanted the power folding running boards, that's another reason to walk away from this truck. You're paying over $50,000 for the truck -- get one that has exactly all the...

    Retrax PowerTraxPro MX interfers with Rambox

    I'll be watching this thread with interest. I'm considering a Retrax manual cover. After reading your complaint, I'm concerned the manual Retrax covers will have the same issue.
