    Tire Size Question

    I want to get new tires before snow sets in as the factory tires did not do me well last year in the snow. I have already settled on a size as overall height is about the same but it's just wider. I was wondering if anyone has run 305/65r17 on their truck yet and if anyone can post pictures. Thanks!

    Anyone else have this problem?

    I've noticed that the plastic fender flares, plastic grill and bumpers are "fading." It could be that I just didn't clean my truck in about 2 months but I cleaned/detailed my truck and that didn't help my plastics and bumpers. I ended up buying some plastic restorer and that did the trick...

    I want a loud truck! All my other trucks were loud and I miss it. I have a 2015 Ram Rebel CC SB now with the 5.7 Hemi. I have a local shop that said they would weld everything up if I get the pipe. I think I have a connection on exhaust tube too so I will be able to do this on the cheap. I...

    transfer case question

    My old ram had a "4wd auto" option on the transfer case selector switch. I know that most people don't like that option but I do. :naughty: I never kept it in 4wd auto all the time, just when the roads were starting to ice up and snow coverage was spotty on the roads. I just got a new...

    mixing gasoline with diesel

    My buddy was telling me how he mixes a gallon of gasoline for one full tank of diesel to avoid gelling. Does this work? Does this cause any damage? The reason why I ask is sometimes where I have to fill up they don't have additives at the stations. I have the 6.7 but it's all deleted.
