    WHY RAM HASN’T SURPASSED FORD IN TRUCK SALES!!!!!!

    Because Ford is the king of the commercial side, where a large volume of there sales comes from. They are living on an age old reputation, which at the time GM and Ram couldn't contend with. As a result of that, the rest of the commercial industry that supports the truck part of things has...

    Air suspension to lift kits

    Many do the conversion. It is common here in Canada as the -40C temps are hard on the system. My truck is coil sprung, but from what I understand it is cheaper to either convert to a factory sprung system or an aftermarket lift if your air system has failed outside of warranty. There are many...

    CV bot torn prematurely

    Was taking a look around the underside of my truck today and came to realize that my drivers side CV boot is torn, grease all over the place. Must have happened in the last week as It wasn't like that when I washed it last week, which I find strange as all I do in the winter is basic...

    Got my new neck rests

    those look great, and a very useful mod. I could never understand why the factory makes head rest the way they do. They are useless stock.

    1500-wanna-bee, but have questions

    Issue has yet to be addressed. The factory FCA systems are nothing but problematic in sub zero weather.

    Thinking about buying a TT, have a few questions

    As others have said, once you load your trailer and truck for your trip you'll be over your payload limits. If you choose to tow like that or not is totally up to you. Will your truck do it, yes it will. Is it legal and safe, no it isn't. Will you prematurely wear your truck, yes you will...

    Strongly considering new 2019 Ram 1500 Sport

    It's a good deal, no doubt about that. The 5th gens are absolutely stunning compared to the 4th Gen which was nice to begin with. You need to ask yourself what your willing to spend to have that 5th Gen. It isn't a smart financial decision, but you have to way that out.

    Those with 2019 BigHorns, post them up.

    Exactly how I would have ordered a 5th gen, white crew cab 6.5 box and the light interior. That is a really clean unit. Can you take more pictures of that light interior and share them?

    Cleaning Polished Aluminum Rims

    I hear ya, I live in western Canada, we have snow 6-8 months of the year and the roads are heavily salted. No chrome rims will last in that atmosphere, the salt just eats the coating away. So does break dust and moisture. If you're set on the polished looked, forged aluminum wheels will get you...

    Cleaning Polished Aluminum Rims

    Forged aluminum rims don't really have a coating in their natural state, they are cut out of a solid aluminum mono block and then polished to shine.

    Cleaning Polished Aluminum Rims

    I wouldn't say you got ripped off, but perhaps misled. Pro comp doesn't make a forged wheel to my knowledge. They describe your rim as "polished alloy". They list powder coat, PVD, chrome and polished as there finishes. The price says it all with this one, @ $123.99 a piece they certainly aren't...

    Cleaning Polished Aluminum Rims

    Big difference between " polished aluminum" and aluminum cast wheels with a "chrome" coating, which is what those wheels are. A truly polished aluminum rim would be forged or billet. You'll be able to clean those up with some good elbow grease, but they won't clean up like a forged wheel does.

    My dream shop build

    Shop is looking great, many of us here will dream a life time for a space like that. Well done! I know you're set on rigid install for the doors, but honestly you don't need it at all. Your shop is so well insulated, I don't think the doors will make a difference either way in regards to the...

    2019 HD RAM

    Checked out a 5th gen Cummins, 3500 longhorn in white today at the dealer while in for a warranty inquiry. Exceptionally nice truck inside and out, but holy hell the price.... My next few vehicles will definitely be used with current new vehicle pricing.

    What DON'T you like about your RAM?

    Warranty repair was approved today. Body shop of my choice will be repainting this panel and my rockers. I'm pleased.

    Yes, no. Your thoughts

    It looks good, and certainly unique. I say go for it.

    New Fuel wheels and tires installed

    They look great on your truck JB, I had the same thoughts when they released that wheel. If they made them in 20x12 I'd be all over them too. They have the forged style hubcap with exposed lugs which is awesome. The typical fun hubcap with allen bolts is cheesy.

    2017 sport rear fender well rust!

    Submitted a claim with the dealer 3 weeks ago now and have yet to hear anything back. This problem has since gotten much worse, to the point where yesterday while detailing my truck, I was drying it off with my shammy towels and literaly wiped the paint off of the rear wheel well.... no joke...

    What DON'T you like about your RAM?

    Well the primary issue seems to be either paint to thin, or a lack of proper bonding to the body. So, the paint is peeling off exposing the panel to surface rust. It's in early stages, I'm no body expert but I would assume they could repair this by simply sanding and buffing the area, then...

    What DON'T you like about your RAM?

    Drivers side rear wheel well lip, I can simply rub the paint off with my finger, the entire arch is just about stripped of factory paint. It isn't stone chips either, i notched the paint bubbling prematurely and I only drive highway miles. The opposite side is fine and free of such defects...

    What DON'T you like about your RAM?

    I hate the fact that the paint basically falls off of my Ram by simply looking at it. This is my favourite truck to date, but the paint is literally of such poor quality it has me questioning what my next brand will be. I planned to keep this thing for a very long time, paint issues and rust may...
