    Dead Backup Camera

    "Camera System Unavailable" Blue screen (of death) No rear parking sensors. 7,200 miles on the truck. Worked fine as I was leaving to go to the local dealer to get my oil changed and tires rotated. Happened while I was there. Sus. Gotta wait two weeks for them to get it in to try and fix...

    Install Spacers Without Disconnecting Air Sus

    Anyone tried this? My shop guy thinks he can avoid messing with the air ride system but cutting a 3/16th inch slice through the spacers so that they slide onto the posts. Thoughts?

    No Tailgate Ajar Warning (MY22)

    Anyone else completely missing this on their (2022) truck? I was reading about how people didn't have this active from the factory and were using AlfaOBD to turn it on. Then I saw a comment from someone who said this didn't work on their MY2022. So I double-checked my build sheet and sure...

    Wheel & Tire Size Change: Need Help Deciding!

    Getting the Daystar spacer/Revel link combo done in a couple weeks and looking ahead to what new, exciting, and completely unnecessary things I can do with my wheel and tire setup! :D Unsurprisingly, I am overwhelmed by the options. There will be some heavy towing in my future, but probably not...

    Best Cleaning Products

    Title. I have a basic, dealer-applied ceramic coating. Not great but better than nothing and much cheaper than 3rd party shops. Right now I'm mainly looking for a good tire shine, and a leather cleaner/conditioner. With the former, Black Magic and Meguiars look interesting but I don't have...

    Dark Side Cookies

    So, I’d been considering several different mods for my truck for some weeks, and all the while there was this voice in the back of my mind saying… Finally, I decided to ask this voice, “Alright but…which ones?” Magnaflow Street Series Cat-Back Exhaust Ram Airflow CAI Hellwig Sway Bar...

    New Tonneau Cover

    Hi everyone! I'm actually mostly happy with the soft tri-fold that came with my night edition, but am still thinking about upgrading. Don't want a retractable one cause I need to be able to completely remove the cover at times. I like the idea of a hard cover (looks more sleek, better seal...

    Unleashing The Beast

    Hi again! So, I thought I was gonna be fine with my truck at stock for at least a few months but the itch to upgrade is already at a fever pitch. I American flagged-up the exterior and have a Hellwig rear sway bar (7709) on the way. From there I'm looking at new tires, a cold air intake, and...

    Should I Ram the Air??

    Okay, so I know this has been discussed here before, and I've looked at a lot of it, but 1) the consensus is still completely out to lunch; I've seen everything from "CAI's do absolutely nothing", to "they do a little but are mostly for looks and sound", to "they make a noticeable difference...

    New for 2022 - Owner's Pics

    Said I would do it. Maybe this can get stickied? Until 2023 orders start coming in anyway. Here's mine. Post em if you got em!

    Tire Ply Rating

    Alright, one more from me on the tires here. Been doing a lot of research on a new set to (immediately) replace the crappy stock Goodyear's. I've pretty much narrowed it down to a couple of "light" A/T tires, but I've recently starting coming across a lot of mentions that one should have "10...

    Trailer Tow Mirrors...?

    So I have a 1500 Limited 4x4 on order. 6'4'' bed with Trailer Tow Group (B) and a few options that will probably put my payload somewhere around 1200lbs. I'm looking at travel trailers in the 20-26ft exterior length range, with widths between 7 and 8 feet and dry weights under 5k lbs. My...

    Solutions for small cargo items/groceries in bed.

    So what does everyone do for these scenarios? I will have plenty of instances where my bed will be packed with brush and branches, metal scrap, random junk, giveaway/donation stuff, furniture, etc. I will also have plenty where I will be transporting smaller items and/or groceries. For the...

    Mopar Paint Protection Film. Worth it?

    As title suggests, I am deciding whether to do some kind of exterior wrap. I've read about both PPF and Ceramic (which I initially thought were the same thing). Apparently the Ceramic has a nice sheen to it and does a decent job protecting, but wears off after a couple of years. The PPF doesn't...

    Best Tires for (2022) Ram 1500 Limited w/Night Edition (mostly highway driving)

    So I wanted to get everyone's thoughts on this. I've read reviews on the tires that come with my truck (Goodyear Eagle Touring 285/45/R22) and they are...not reassuring. The two main issues seem to be that their traction in snowy conditions is subpar and that they wear out extremely quickly...

    Does the Ram 1500 Payload Account for Driver/Passenger, or Not?

    So I did a brief search through the forums and couldn't nail down a specific thread for this question. I've heard (read) a nearly equal amount of answers on this: does the door sticker payload rating on a Ram 1500 account for the driver? And the passenger? Neither? If someone knows, where/how...

    Guess I'll Chime in Here...

    I've already posted some but figured, why not? HI! :D Happy to (soon) be part of the Ram family and really looing forward to owning my first ever vehicle that can do more than just go from point A to point B with the occasional load of groceries in the back. This will be the biggest, nicest...

    Can y'all help me figure out my payload?

    This is my first post here. I am new to trucks and trailering. I did a pretty extensive amount of research before my recent truck purchase…or so I thought. I got a solid deal (especially considering the state of the market) on a factory order: a 2022 Ram 1500 Limited 4x4 V8 eTorque with the...
