    Retractable Alum Tonneaus - RetraxPro vs Truck Covers USA

    Sorry for the necro post.....just wondered if there was an update on this from OP? I'm looking at the retrax for my '14 with Ramboxes and I was wondering if it worked out for you? Thanks.

    Rebel or Raptor?

    With regards to your Bluetooth skipping: My 2014 Sport has the same issue. I assume eventually they will fix it with an update. I believe it has to do with the way the Bluetooth connects to multiple devices. It happens to me when I'm trying to use my Ipod, but also have my phone in the truck...

    How does AUTO 4WD work/what does it do?

    I'll add my .02 to the list of disappointed Ram 4x4 owners as well. Like most people, the biggest thing that aggravates me is the misleading way it's labelled. Being honest with myself, I'm on rutted single track once or twice a month tops, when I go out to my spot in the woods to shoot or...

    Which package is a good platform to build on

    Agree. Now if I'd only known that when I bought it. As for going up to the big brother....possible but pricey. I would be curious to know if anyone has actually built a rig on the 44-44, and what they consider the limitations to be based on seeing how far it can be pushed.

    Which package is a good platform to build on

    I'm glad I was browsing the forums today...I kind of wanted to ask a similar question, so here's my .02: I have a '14 Sport CCSB. When I bought it it had all the goodies I wanted and none I didn't. I didn't want the air suspension, but heated and cooled leather seats are nice. Unfortunately...

    2014 Ram 1500 axle swap

    Necropost! I also have a '14 with 3.21s and I'd be interested in having a swap to the factory 3.92s. I have a lifetime warranty, so I probably won't be going aftermarket. OP, did you ever end up doing the swap? And about how much did it cost you? If you don't mind me asking.

    5w30

    Just changed my oil last week. Been using Royal Purple 5w30 and RP filter, and I got 9800 miles give or take before the engine oil change sensor went off. When I drained it it was pretty black, but I've seen worse. I do drive a lot of highway. Probably 80/20 highway. I might try Redline, but...

    Lifted 4th Gen Pics - Show Em Off!

    I really like this look. I'm looking for a enough lift to improve clearance and ride, but not so much. I drive too much freeway for that.

    New tire take off replacement: DuraTrac vs BFG KO2 in stock 20"

    Sorry for the old thread bump, but I didn't see the need to start a new one. I've got the '14 1500 with 20" wheels, and the stock Sr-As on them. 61K miles ! They've been literally across the country, from Northern Ohio to Georgia and all the way the So Cal and back. I drive pretty almost...

    clay polish and wax help

    Question from the peanut gallery here: If you had scratches requiring touch up paint, where in the process is best to put it on? After claybar?

    Tractor Trailer blowout: not a great start to a new year

    I assumed it was a retread, but you're right. Unfortunately it was dark and snowy on the truck, didn't get the plates or anything. Prob just gonna have to eat this one myself.

    Tractor Trailer blowout: not a great start to a new year

    Interesting Tenn.guy Thanks everyone for your thoughts.....I'm a ky resident and already do for a windshield....I may get a quote from a friendly body shop to just knock it all out....I'll see what becomes of the park sensor.

    Tractor Trailer blowout: not a great start to a new year

    So yesterday, there I am minding my own damn business when a semi in the middle lane blows out a tire right in front of me, making my choices: Left side wall, right side trailer, or hard brake in freeway traffic. :( First question: I've never been/ or seen a blowout tire actually hit...
