What did you do to your Ram today???

[seansmd]

Agreed, the radar detector is gone they are pretty useless these days, even the decent escort I have with laser.

Does the magnetic phone mount you have wirelessly charge?
Just checked and ordered the magsafe charger version, and a non charging version for the right for my passenger princess.

Awesome i did the same the usb ports are too weak to wirelessly charge anything you are using, gps, AA, carplay etc on a big phone.

 

[seansmd]

Yes. Quite efficiently as well. However, for the mount charge, I ran the power down to the 110v charging block in the lower consul. I needed the USB power points for my wireless Apple CarPlay and my music on a USB stick. The charger came with a USB C cable but had a problem when the standard USB power points are used at the same time. So, I just re-routed that to the charging block below.
I use the Carlinkit 2.0 Apple Wireless CarPlay as my phone wirelessly links to the radio automatically and the radio will read my texts to me and also allow me to voice reply.
I still use my radar detector as it still picks up KA band but the last 2 tickets I got were Laser and unless he hits your detector to pick it up, you’re done.
I did find a stealth material that’s virtually clear that you can paint on the 3 points they use for a target, your headlights, grill and license plate. It doesn’t totally mask you but gives you some extra time to see them and hopefully slow down.
The only other option is a radar jammer system and they are mucho $$$ and also illegal in most if not all places.

When you had the head unit face off were you able to dress the usb-c cable behind the head unit and come out below where the AC plug is? Insight here would be great.

Changed my rear marker lights to these...

Rear markers w/parking lights on...

Rear markers w/doors open, reverse, cargo light, tailgate handle, unlock on approach...

Nice change and does emit some usable light at night...

Actually, there is another option. Drive no more than 5 MPH over the speed limit. It's free and legal throughout the world.

Actually I think your TRX smacks you in the face of you don't speed, read it on the Internet!

Well, technically they can still pull you over and give you a ticket for 5mph over. But that's what I run.

It's unlikely that 5 MPH or less is going to hold up in court.

I agree, and why I run 5mph over, but if a cop wants to be a ****, they have legal right to pull you over and ticket for speeding.

Added bronze tow hooks last night. Quick and easy install made even easier with air ride.

 

[Redz72]

Installed Bora Wheel Spacers. 3/4” in the front and 1” in the rear. Really liking the more aggressive stance. It will look even better when I level NightHawk 2.2 and put 35’s on her in a few weeks.

Huge shout out to my new friend @Geddyflea for the hook up! He’s a good dude and great example of the awesome people on this forum!

I'm gonna guess he's also a bass player.

Speeding is boring, but getting up to speed quickly is not. The TRX does that very well...I read it on the Internet and confirmed in person.

I've beat around on them for a few years. I'm also a HUGE Chili Peppers and Rush fan!

Prepped the truck for one week storage as I fly out to Taiwan for a week to visit parents.
Just going over the pictures since I'm gonna be spending a week not seeing it

Just got home from my trip to Gatlinburg TN. We went from London Ontario to Gatlinburg TN, then over to Nashville TN and back up to home. towed a friends car while driving. View attachment 168713
While there, we swung by Tail of the Dragon and had an absolute blast on that road! If you can, I absolutely recommend you do it!

From there we went to Nashville and stayed there 2 nights. On Tuesday we went up to the National Corvette museum, what a place that it is! Was absolutely worth all the driving! Got home today, Ram had no problems and temps stayed nice and cool the entire trip, trans would shift pretty high sometimes but is what it is.

20 minutes from my home, I agree, a must drive

Picked up a set of BBK headed locally tonight for $260. They were off a 2016, but figure there couldn't be that much difference for headers from 4th gen to 5th gen, and nobody seems to know for sure.

 

[OCD Solutions]

I’m curious why the seller removed them.

Let us know as the 4thgen manifolds are said to be different. Either way i hope you have luck with shorties as many have had them crack as well, including me. Had AFE shorties on mine but have read of BBk and JBA also cracking.
