    Which section to monitor for feedback on the new Turbo (SST)?

    Looking forward to reading feedback from actual folks about the SST and NOT YouTube folks. Is this section the best to monitor or will people be posting in the Hurricane S/O section?

    When can we start building 2025 via the Ram web site?

    When attempting to build, still only shows 2023/2024 options. When will the web page active to build various 2025 Trucks?

    Serious question. For those buying new, are you waiting for a leak or just going ahead and caulking everything?

    Even my wife agrees, the Ram Trucks are the best riding trucks we tested, and at the top of the truck list, but these leaks seem to be more trouble than its worth. Are people not aware of the issue, or aware and feel it won't happen to them? Is anyone buying a Ram truck and adding silicone to...

    Why Laramie over Big Horn?

    Unable to order any 2024s so searching for existing stock of Laramies with the Advanced Safety Group. Not only are they hard to find, but when found they tend to have other options that I dislike as with the Panoramic Sunroof or Tow Mirrors. Thinking that searching for a Laramie with the...

    Would a 2024 Hemi be susceptible to the "Hemi Tick" ?

    Would a 2024 Hemi be susceptible to the "Hemi Tick" ? What percentage of people experience the non-normal issues with the 2024s?

    Who here is looking forward to the Hurricane?

    Anyone here NOT getting a Hemi and purposely waiting the Hurricane release? Do you think the Hurricane release will help or hurt sales? Any chance the new engine hurt sales enough to warrant bringing back the Hemi in the future?

    Who is jumping on the 24s for the Hemi? Who is looking forward to the Hurricane? Will the Hemi return in next year or two?

    Debating on jumping on a 24 to get the last of the Hemi, but my truck still have some miles left. Sorta like the slightly newer look of the 25s, but a fan of turbo engines as I tend to keep vehicles a looooooong time. My truck could last another year or two so if the Hemi makes a comeback in...

    Blue with Night Package

    Really like this combo. Only seen 2 for sale and both 4x4. Hit the Ram web site and it won't even let me build one. Is this color combo available in a 4x2?

    Why does the Mopar Extended Warranty price vary per state?

    When purchasing my wife's Nissan a few years back the Extended Warranty was non-negotiable and more expensive than other states. Decided to check if the same was true for the Mopar Extended Warranty and the price for Florida was $1,000 more than other states. Anyone have any idea why the...

    FL : Are Mopar Extended Warranties fix price?

    I vaguely recall reading that the price of Extended Warranties can be negotiated, but with certain non-Ram dealers in Florida there apparently is a fixed price. Has anyone from Florida been successful in negotiating an official Mopar Extended Warranty (not a 3rd party one)? If so, what was the...

    Hypothetical scenarios. What would you do?

    Scenario 1 : 2023 Laramie with everything I want. Only downside is it has the e-Torque system. MSRP : 67,975 Discounted : 63,118 + tax + tag + $444 Scenario 2 : 2022 Big Horn and missing most of the items on my "want" list. But does have standard V8 MSRP : 55,925 Out The Door : 42,000 That...

    eTorque Batter replacement

    Not many people keep their vehicles a long time but I do and after reading this article, the Ram truck sorta makes me rethink this brand. Replacement cost Since the system hasn't been out for 10 years, we don't know how true the article may be.

    How much of a Top View do you get with the Surround Camera?

    Based on the Ram web site, the Top View of the Surround Camera shows the following. It takes up about 1/3 of the screen. Anyone with this feature able to confirm this is all you get? Having such a small viewing area doesn't seem like it would help. Are you able to have the surround view...

    Even with the 2023 models out, is it possible to custom order a 2022 from dealer.

    The RAM web site gives the option to build either a 2022 or a 2023. Does that mean if I wanted a V8 without eTorque and a truck with specific color and options (that I can not currently find) I could actually go to a dealership and request they custom order me a 2022? But then in theory wouldn't...

    Which search engine for find specific Ram truck.

    Built a few Rams using the Ram web site and at the end used their search engine and they never come close to matching my requirements. My list contains about 3 must have items. Have you found a better search engine to find a Ram truck with specific colors and features?

    Buying strategy....why not tell them you need a truck now?

    One of the top rules is to not let the dealership know you need a new truck immediately My thinking is if you told 5 dealerships you need a truck now and will buy from the one of the five with the best price, why would they not give the best deal as it would be a easy sell? Usually when working...

    Who here is NOT happy with their e-Torque system?

    Seem like the 2023s will have the e-Torque system and curious what are the major complaints from owners (if any)? Also for anyone in the southern states, how did the e-Torque manage through those hot humid July/Aug months? Does the e-Torque system cut out the A/C unit?

    Can you tell a difference in the ride between the 18 and 20 inch rims?

    Standard rims are 18 inches but the ones I like are the 20 inch rims. Is there a noticeable difference in the ride between the 18 inch and 20 inch rims? Objective is smoother and comfortable ride over aesthetic.

    2023 - No Hemi - Are you buying now or waiting for the new engine?

    Anyone jumping the gun and buying their Ram 1500 truck with a Hemi now before they are gone? Does this new motor peak your interest and opting to wait for it to hit the market? Anyone have any input on the new engine other than horsepower in the 1500 truck could be > 500. Are they using a...
