    Common issues with the 5th Gen

    I bought mine in September last year and never buy first year due to being a service manager in dealerships for almost 30 years. I have 32k on it and never a problem. I also grew up dodge. Forums can be great when having issues or exploring upgrades. But know you are buying man made and they...

    My built n ordered Ram 1500 showed up with wrong rear end ratio

    So, if they are holding conversations then that's the start. Coming from dealership background u will get a couple of options. 1) they will try and make u some kind of a offer to take the truck they built. 2) they will build u a new truck and give u up to 5k in compensation (that's the most they...

    Frustrating

    So..... I feel ur pain and I went thru 3 sets of Goodyear's on my 13 Ram. When I bought my 16, I pulled them off day one. The biggest problem u have is u went to a dealer for tires. I was a service manager for GM and Ford and I wouldn't sale tires. The fact that they sold u an alignment with...

    Dead battery issues

    You do know this is an ALL NEW TRUCK for 2019? As an ex service manager and mechanic, no one outside a dealer is going to know what or how to fix this. You have a 68k pickup, take it to the dealership. Not worth risking more damage and or letting someone uncertified touch it and void ur warranty.

    Bakflip MX4, Undercover Ultra Flex, or Lomax?

    I had a MX4 on my 2016 and loved it. Getting ready to order one for my 2019 Limited. Never had a leaking issue and loved the way u can't open it when ur tailgate is up. Sold my old to a guy with a 2018 Rebel and he loved it. Installs in about 25 mins with no drilling. I like the clean look. Just...

    Off Road Package, MPG, and Gear Ratio

    I have a 2019 Limited with the eTorque and 3.92 and love it. I also have the 3.92 in my 2013 Laramie Sport. Both were 4x4s. I avg. 21-23 mpg and I do mostly highway miles. On my 2016 Laramie 4x4 I had the 3.21 and got 15-18 mpg doing the same style of driving. I won't trade the 3.92 rear-end in...

    Thoughts on air suspension? It is worth it? Will it break down?

    I’m on my 6th Ram since 1997. The present and last one, have had the 4 corner suspension. I won’t own one without it now. I haul a 860lb motorcycle from time to time and pull a car hauler. The self leveling is awesome and stops the drag ass when pulling or moving weight. The lowering to load...

    Best looking AT tire that won’t break the bank?

    I have used Nitto's on my last 2 Rams. They aren't that expensive but wear really well. Just bought a 2019 Limited 4x4 and about to go back to them. Trading mine in at Discount Tire.

    Music stopped playing

    Tried that.... just left the dealer and the new radio doesn't allow it. Once you sync ur phone in the 2019 and receive a call, it turns off your music in the vehicle, so I'm told. I'm gonna do more research cause that just doesn't sound right. Sounds like the I don't know so let me tell him...

    Music stopped playing

    I picked up my 2019 Limited on Saturday and excited because I ordered it and been waiting like a kid for Xmas. I set everything up, up til 2am like a kid, and the next day made a phone call to test my system. Everything worked fine til I transferred to my air pods and the music didn't come back...

    Subwoofer Suggestions?

    Just bought mine Saturday and have the same thought. Doing some research. I'll check back and let you know what I find and compare to what you find.. Lots of room to work with.

    Replying with Voice to text messages on 2019 Ram 1500 12" screen

    Morning, not dealing with that issue but I bought my 2019 Limited this weekend. This morning on the way to work I rec'd a call and it turned my music off. Not sure what that is but has anyone else had this happen and can you turn that feature off?

    Other than the MDS, how Doug like the exhaust? Thinking about Borla headers and straight pipe back.
