    Any reason not to use Pennzoil Platinum High Mileage?

    I use PUP 5W20 with 5,000 mile OCIs and have about 48K miles on my engine. I did try 5W30 on my third oil change, but immediately noticed a drop in MPG so I went back to 5W20. I’ve considered switching to Redline brand but I’m not convinced yet the expense is worth any perceived advantages. My...

    Just Ordered Ram Classic in Robin Egg Blue - Questions!

    That's an interesting color for a RAM truck......don't think I have ever seen one in my neck of the woods. It definitely stands out in the crowd.

    What determines payload and towing capacity? Comparing 1/2 tons.

    Payload is the difference between the Gross Vehicle Weight Rating (GVWR) of your truck and its actual weight. This number will tell you how much equipment/gear, driver/passenger weight, fuel weight, etc. you can add to your truck without exceeding the GVWR. Gross Combined Weight Rating (GCWR) is...

    5th Wheel Towing

    Jeff, The first thing I recommend is finding out exactly how much payload capacity your truck will have after it is fully loaded (full tank of fuel, gear, tow hitch, and of course your family) so you will know how much king pin weight you can safely handle. To do this just load up your truck...

    Tonneau Cover VS Car Wash

    My Tyger brand tonneau cover still looks almost new after at least 100+ automatic car washes (although they were touch-free). I wouldn't hesitate to take it through a standard car wash either.

    Potential new owner.

    If those are the original Goodyear Wrangler SR-A tires I would suggest negotiating for a new set based on the truck's mileage because you will probably need tires soon. Of course, I can't tell how much tread depth is left on them in the photos but based on my personal experience the original...

    Go Rhino bumpers installed on 2018 Ram 1500 Sport

    I lived in Manchester for 10 years (2000-2004)(2007-2013) before moving to Colorado. I daydream of moving back all the time.....LOL.

    New 5th gen multi-function tailgate coming soon

    I've been using the original bed steps on my truck.....also known as the rear tires. Who would have ever thunk it?

    Bad lifter/cam and dealership is taking forever!

    I would consider purchasing a $500 "junker" and drive that if rental costs are going to get out of hand. Once you get your truck back you can always sell the junker and get most (if not all) your money back. Yes, it's a PITA because you have to get it registered, etc. but depending how long this...

    My 2019's first experience in the -50deg range.

    This brings flashbacks of two years I lived in Grand Forks, North Dakota (although -43F was the coldest I saw). I had a '95 RAM 2500 4x4 with a V10 that sounded like two ***** robots f*cking hard when I cranked it on those winter mornings. I don't miss those times at all...
