    Tire Pressure 2021 Ram 1500 Laramie With Bridgestone Dueler H/L 275/55R20?

    4th Gen rams were 39 and I think some 5th Gena are too. Probably just tech doing what is most common instead of checking each door. I personally run 39 with my Bridgestones. I feel they are too soft at 36 and tolerable at 39. Even at 39 I have a guy at work who swears they look low all the time...

    Never again

    You should try getting a tractor. No new ones on the lot, they don't know when they will get inventory and used ones are more overpriced than used cars. It is going to be years before we get back to normal. 2019 Ram 1500 Laramie 4x4 - Crew Cab/5.7 Bed - 5.7 Hemi - 3.92 - Anti Spin - Level 1...

    Prevent apple car play from starting

    My wife uses apple and I am on android and we've never had any issues switching back and fourth or having one or the other plugged in. They are also both Bluetooth paired. Mine is set as primary. Also you can buy charge only USB cables that don't include the data wires. Charge speed may be...

    Auto brake release feature, 2020 Limited 5.7

    Probably this. My wife had the same problem. Being a habitual parking brake user I happen to like the feature. But driving around the property since covid I've developed the habit of always pushing the break release button even when I don't need to. 2019 Ram 1500 Laramie 4x4 - Crew Cab/5.7 Bed...

    5th Gen messed up from the start

    TFL just did a review on his brand new F150 with the same rust spots on the axle. They compared a 2014 and an older one maybe 2008. The newest one had the most rust. Although the 2008 was covered in years of greese so it may have protected itself. Seems quality is going away or the effort...

    "What DON'T you like about your 5th Gen RAM"?

    The things that stick up out of the top of the door panel you used to push/pull on before electronic door locks. Now they just go up and down. I think I just realized why they are that way. The back doors don't have lock/unlock buttons. Even though you don't need to unlock the door to open them...

    "What DON'T you like about your 5th Gen RAM"?

    The front and rear door locks indicators are not the same height. The door locks in the front are flush when locked and the rear are up when locked. The rear just goes up more when unlocked and the front unlocked are the same as the rear locked. 2019 Ram 1500 Laramie 4x4 - Crew Cab/5.7 Bed -...

    To RamBox or Not to RamBox ... plus other questions (multi-function tailgate)

    I think for a lot of rambox owners the usefulness of the rambox outweighs the warping issue. I use them constantly for tools, straps, etc. Eliminating the need to use the cab storage for those things leaving a huge flat space when the rear seat is folded up. 2019 Ram 1500 Laramie 4x4 - Crew...

    To RamBox or Not to RamBox ... plus other questions (multi-function tailgate)

    That is why I haven't bothered to have mine looked at. It seems they are just replacing the lid with the same bad part and no reason to let them take it all apart to not actually fix it. I'm still waiting for the new part. Luckily covid has dropped my annual mileage in half so between factory...

    Busted Axle. Opinions / suggestions please.

    I was watching a fabrication video the other day where they were drilling out the end and they mentioned that axle shafts are typically hardened on the ends and outside not the core. The core is softer metal so that may be normal. You would need someone who has broken or seen many broken shafts...

    Sirius Radio not available?

    Sirius is also known to release bad updates overnight that get fixed sometime in the morning. Even breaks my wife's Ford Sync and she doesn't even have a Sirius subscription. 2019 Ram 1500 Laramie 4x4 - Crew Cab/5.7 Bed - 5.7 Hemi - 3.92 - Anti Spin - Level 1 Options - RamBox - BUG

    Where did you get your great deal on your new Ram.

    I've had good success with Piedmont Ram in Anderson, SC. I talked to a larger dealership nearby Lake Keowee Dodge Jeep Ram. They wouldn't come down on the price a closing, but the next day it was a few thousand cheaper online. Called and it was sold. Kinda irritated, but it was for the best it...
