Queastionable Exhaust Shop
I know my GMC had a flapper valve after the OEM muffler. It was to help with the exhaust noise switching from V8-V4 mode. Came out when I installed a Corsa catback on it. I don't know if the Ram's have the same thing. I will have to look at my Dads to see if it has one too. Because they have...- fondupot

how often do you change your oil???
The dealership my dad bought his truck from threw in 2 years of free oil changes with the deal. So my dad has been going every 3k miles or so his truck. After that I told him it would be fine to go 6-7k miles between oil changes.- fondupot

Bilstein 5100, 35" K02 ,Vibration at certain speeds
I highly doubt this is an issue related tot he Bilstein shocks. Its gotta be the tire/wheel combo causing an issue. Also, look into hub-centric rings. Should help. -

Overinflate for speed or no?
Don't do this. Tires get hotter as you increase speed, which in turn increased the PSI of the air pressure. If you inflate them 10 psi over, and then start rolling around at highway speeds, you could very easily blow a tire.- fondupot

New Spark Plugs at 30,000
Plugs should be good until like 100k miles. They are just trying to milk you. Do it yourself if you are concerned.- fondupot

Bad Wheel Hop?
Yes. They do. My Previous 2011 F150 did it and my 2014 GMC Sierra does it. I think its a characteristic of not having much weight in the back end. -

LSD installed. If you don't have it you're crazy.

Any sales "gimmicks" to be aware of when picking up new truck next week? Also GEICO
I know you said that you have a check ready to pay for the truck, but have you investigated the financing options? If its 0% for however many months....thats literally FREE money. Pay it off over the course of a year or two instead of dropping the whole wad at once.- fondupot

How many guys have CCLB Sports?
Not a Sport, but my dads Laramie is a 6'4" Crew. Love the crew cab and longer bed option. Was a hard truck to find too. Being the end of the year, and being less popular where we live. Most trucks are crew cab short boxes here.- fondupot

Cold weather low windshield fluid light
If anything the RainX fluid is probably better to use since it wont freeze as easily. The crap blue generic stuff will freeze on a 15 degree day! But if the sensor on these newer trucks detects alcohol, just mix in some rubbing alcohol with RainX to make it happy, this will extend the freezing...- fondupot

Ram 1500 vs GMC Sierra
AUTO setting any any of the trucks is not AWD. Its part time 4 wheel drive. the fronts don't engage until slippage is detected. This is how the Rams, GM's and Fords work. Either way. I get what you were talking about.- fondupot

Poor Brake Performance
My dads brand new 2014 Ram stops great. I was impressed the first time I drove it. You may have some air in your system, may need to have it bled by the dealer. Good luck- fondupot

Ram 1500 vs GMC Sierra
Not really....a few.... There are two types of transfer cases for the new GM Half tons. Manual transfer case with 2hi, 4hi and 4lo. And electronic transfer cases with 2hi, AUTO 4, 4hi, and 4lo. There is no AWD setting. AUTO 4 simply engages the front wheels when slippage is detected out back...- fondupot
