    @Ramcares

    I have an unresolved issue with my truck caused by a recent recall. I have given the local dealer weeks to contact FCA for a solution, and have gotten nowhere. Now I'm pissed. I sent a PM to Ramcares yesterday, have not heard back yet. For those who have contacted @ramcares, how prompt was their...

    6.4 Road Trip Results

    Just completed a trip to Coleman, OK and back, 2687 miles, Max MPG 15.9, Min MPG 14.5, Trip AVG 15.1, EVIC Indicated Trip Avg 18.0. They don't call it the Lie-O-Meter for nothing LOL. This was empty, running 75. Pretty flat terrain along the I-10, I-20 corridor, and remarkably little wind. I...

    Soft Tonneau Recommendations?

    When I bought my 2500 three years ago, I wanted a soft tonneau without bows that also opened at the front, so it's easy to place/retrieve stuff against the cab. I went with the Truxedo Deuce, which got pretty good reviews. I have found that it does not seal nearly as well as the Mopar soft...

    6.4 Road Trip

    So we just did a little road trip through eastern AZ, up to Durango,CO, and back. I stayed off the interstates as much as possible, so the vast majority of this was on two-lanes, and most of it was hilly terrain at 5-8K feet elevation. The truck did OK, but I have to say I was a bit...

    Creaking Hinges!

    I have owned a crap-ton of vehicles from a variety of brands, and I have never had one with incessantly creaky hinges before. I have tried a couple different brands of white lithium spray, and within a week or so they are at it again. My last Dodge was an '05, and I'd lube them a couple times a...

    EXO Grapplers

    Well, I finally couldn't take the junk OEM Firestones anymore. Yesterday, I had EXO Grapplers installed. They look great, and the truck tracks and corners much better. I wish I had done this right away, instead of trying to milk those Transjunks:Stupid Me:

    Uconnect Question

    Asking for a friend of mine. He has a 1500 with the 3.0 radio, and had the bluetooth hands-free kit installed. The radio was "updated". The issue is that the volume of phone calls is so low that he has to crank the radio to 20+ to even begin to hear it, and when the call ends the radio will...

    A Different Kind of Tire Question

    My buddy ordered a 2017 1500 RCSB 4x4, and selected the LT tire option. Does anyone know what tires they are coming with? I believe they are LT265/70-17E, according to the brochure.

    Toyo Open Country C/T

    Does anybody have feedback on the Open Country C/T's? It looks like a way to get the 3-ply carcass construction without the noise and mpg penalty of the M/T's. I can almost see these OEM Firestones disappearing before my eyes, so I am trying to do a bit of research in advance.

    Order Tracking

    Has anyone had any luck with the Ram VOTS site? My buddy ordered a truck last week and when he enters his VON number and last name it just churns endlessly, and never gets anywhere. He called the 800 number and the truck is at D1 status, but it would be more convenient if the site worked.

    2017 Ordering Window?

    I have a buddy looking to spec out a 2017 1500. Any idea when the ordering window will open for 2017s?

    "Old-School" Wheels?

    As I curse at these Transjunk tires on my 2500 every day, I have been looking into tires so I am ready when the day finally arrives. Due to $$$ I will likely just do tires, but it didn't stop me from researching wheels a bit. I have usually run sorta plain-jane alloy wheels, like Outlaw II's, or...

    Inconsistent Shift Switch Ops

    I have found that the shift switch sometimes has a mind of its own. Sometimes it will not respond to the first click at all, sometimes the first click while under way displays 6 while it is still in lower gears, sometimes the first click takes it to the gear that it is actually in. Not a huge...

    Tinny Rattle

    I rolled under my truck for a minute looking for the source of an annoying rattle that occurs at startup, and around 1300-1500 RPM +/-. Only had a little time and I didn't have a helper to start the truck or get it to the right RPM, so I was poking around and banging/shaking trying to duplicate...

    Traction Control Light

    On my way to work this AM, basically coasting on a downgrade and I get a chime and the TC light comes on. Within a minute it went out on its own. Anybody else get this?

    6.4 Finally Arrived

    Well, she finally arrived this afternoon:driver: My son and I laid out and cut the openings for the gooseneck and safety chain hooks in the bed mat, and installed the tailgate mat. She was dirty as heck, so a quick trip through the car wash and she's looking pretty good. Didn't do much driving...
