What did you do to your Ram today???

[detroitm2]

Modified and installed a rambar on my rebel with MFT. A bit of angle grinder work and some paint (yeah, not the cleanest, I know.) worked like a charm. My Retrax MX fit perfectly between the bolts.

Took the Ram up over a high mountain pass yesterday. Tons of lakes up there.
What a comfortable truck to drive. Perfect for road trips!
Had it for over 5 years and Ram is still the best looking truck on the road.
Okay…I’m a bit biased.

Thats the SO version in the Wagoneer, ya?

Yes, the standard output I6.

I also test-drove a leftover Grand Wagoneer with the 6.4 and the SO I6 is very similar in power. Of course, the 6.4 is much more entertaining to drive

Ok so been driving the truck for a day and wow, I had no idea how bad my Exhaust manifolds had gotten! The truck is so much quieter now.

Also got the turn signal switch repaced as it had quit canceling, they also replaced my driver airbag, but did not list that on the repair order? Maybe a recall?

What were your symptoms on turn signal? Mine left one occasionally does not cancel. Do you know if they replaced the clock spring or what?

My left turn signal was sometimes difficult to engage and in some cases, it would not stay engaged.

I believe the switch and clock spring are one assembly.

Got the fronts tinted to match the factory rear. This is the first vehicle I’ve ever had tinted windows in and they made an immediate difference in the interior temperature… I even had to switch my regular driving sunglasses out for another set with lighter lenses, which I was not expecting

Total sidenote… Does anyone else’s auto stop start engage less often in the summer? Mine basically never engages which is making me think my battery might be not be long for this world. I’m going away for an extended military training event and I’m back-and-forth on replacing the battery tomorrow or not….don’t really want the truck to just die while im gone.

When my battery was going, it showed up in the remote start system first. You should plan for a battery change soon.

I believe when the AC is running the A.S.S. is off. Someone will confirm.

Totally normal! The A.S.S system will typically work less in the summer. I prioritizes passenger comfort over fuel economy. If the temp inside the truck is higher, the system will not turn off the engine. If you want it to engage, you can turn off the A/C and roll down the windows, otherwise it will engage when the inside temps drop. I live in the Phoenix area and almost never have the A.S.S. system engage during the summer.

You fellers work your stock battery too hard. OEM in mine still going strong.


Watch - the SOB will go out tomorrow now

I hate to even type this, but my 2019 battery is still going strong. Headed to the mountains this weekend so I’m sure it will happen now that I said something…LOL

You jinxed it. Better get to Auto Zone.

I'm such an A.s.s.

When I read the original post my mind registered the remote start system.

@Gren71 - feel free to disregard what I said.

Geez I’m jealous. We’ve got almost the same truck and mine lasted barely 2 years and 44K miles

Finally got around to installing my digital mirror. Pretty cool feature. Next will be installing the front recovery hooks. Truck just doesn't look right without them.

Not RAM Related but I loaded up the bike today for my longest trip ever. Dropping my bike off at the shipping company tomorrow. In 2 weeks, I fly out to Oregon to begin a 12,000 Mile ride over 5-6 weeks.

Departing Bend Oregon on June 17th
Riding dirt roads to the Canadian border (Oregon / Washington Backcountry Discovery Routes) then taking as much dirt as possible to Dawson City Yukon then up to the Arctic Ocean via the Dempster Highway. From there, south through forest service roads around the Banff area, crossing into Glacier National Park and riding the Continental Divide south to Mexico. Finally, The Trans America Highway east back to Charlotte North Carolina that TAT is mostly dirt but once you cross into the Carolinas, it's pavement (booo)

so it won't be a RAM trip but that's okay.

EDIT: Here's a screenshot of the route that starts in Oregon -

anyway, I'm stoked and wanted to share.

Going to try to do daily shorts on my YouTube channel and some Instagram posts whenever I have cell service. Where I'm going won't really have any service but every couple of days - Adam Chandler / Login • Instagram
