    Why did you buy your truck?

    I have had a truck since 1989. Owned Toyotas until 2004 when I bought a Dodge RAM 1500 Quad Cab HEMI. Loved the truck. Owned it for 13 years. It was very reliable but it was getting old and it was time to trade it in. I do not believe in buying new and I purchased a 2015 RAM 1500 Crew Cab...

    A Hemi getting 24mpg?

    We just got to Yellowstone from So. California towing our 3300 lb popup. I averaged 17.3 mpg. I expect Better on the trip home (more downhill). Without the trailer I get 23-25 on the highway. My around town is about 15 with all stop and go. That's about a 50% increase over my 2004 RAM

    Anyone "add on" leather with the genuine Mopar leather seat cover kit?

    It came in the original box with paperwork and when I did the install I forgot to keep everything. I'll contact the installer as he keeps record of each install and see if he happened to enter a part number from katzkin. You can go to the katzkin website or a dealer and you should be able to...

    To answer your question about Mopar Katzkin leather seats, I purchased a set of official Mopar leather and I can tell you it is awesome. I purchased the set off eBay and it has the actual Mopar tags on them. I found a local Katzkin installer who did an incredible install for a great price...

    Limited slip Dif upgrade

    Thanks for the replies. It's interesting in reading other threads how many are adamant about having LSD and some say traction control is adequate. I have a couple of other upgrades to do then I'll decide on the Lsd. I may see how the truck does through this winter with the occasional rain we get.

    Limited slip Dif upgrade

    I purchased a new to me RAM crew cab without limited slip Dif. If I have and lsd installed will it void my warranty and is it worth the cost? I live in sourthern CA so weather is rarely a factor. My last RAM had an LSD and I never had any traction issues - but - "It Never Rains in California"...

    School me on Rams--shopping.

    I just purchased a 2015 crew cab with 22,600 miles for 22,900. Had a bakflip tonneau factory tow and upgraded tradesman package. HEMI with 8 Spd. Awesome truck and drives like a dream. Balance of the factory warranty as well. Deals are out there in your price range. If you are thinking quad...

    Just a note, the crew cab and quad cab have the same seat configuration. You just have to pick the set based on whether your front is two buckets ot 40/20/40 with or without underseat storage. And if the rear is 60/40 or solid bench. Sent from my VS988 using Tapatalk

    Leather interior options

    Another vote for Katzkin I purchased a 2015 Tradesman about 2 months ago. I had the same thought as you. I could not find a truck with leather for under 30k. Just had Katzkin installed. I bought the kit on eBay for about $500. Had a local installer put them on. Best upgrade so far.

    Just had Katzkin installed - Best upgrade to date I just had Katzkin seats installed a couple of weeks ago. Bought them on eBay. They came I the original box with paperwork. I found a local installer who gave me a good price to install. I would not recommend doing it yourself. I intended to...
