3 Shark fin antennas??

[Klutchy1219]

Hi all - I recently purchased a 2021 Rebel Night edition with the Eco Diesel motor, Rebel 12 package with 12" Uconnect. I noticed that there are actually three (3) shark fin antennas on the roof, towards the back. From what I've seen, most Rams have only one or sometimes two shark fin antennas. Any idea what the 3rd is for?

3? Guess I've only ever noticed 1. Got pic?

Yeah pics would be good here. I've only ever seen one on 5th gen 1500's. I suspect the other two were for something the previous owner added.

I'll share some pics this afternoon - thanks for the replies!

I've seen dummy shark fin antenna's for sale so maybe the previous owner added a few.

I think they are likely dummy shark fins... one of them came off in the car wash and it was connected to nothing, the mount is just 3M-taped on. It's actually a decent look with the 3 fins, so maybe I'll just roll with it!

It's to help keep you planted when you go around curves too fast.

Jeeze.
Is the paint on the driver side getting ripped off due to that tape?

Or… is the fin there to hide the missing paint?

A chicken-egg conundrum.

That's what I thought at first but like, how do you lose paint on the roof?
Hail damage?

Googone time.

I don’t know. That’s pretty EASY for me to pass on. . But that turbo whistle…they might be onto something

Just get a 2025 and enjoy your turbo

What happens if you put that in your exhaust in a 2025? Infinite boost?

Yikes, I hope you can get those off without damaging the paint...
It reminds me of those roof splitters or vortex generators the rice rocket kids put on their subaru's and hondas LOL
