    Spare tire after 35's or bigger?

    Personally, I would put a 35" tire in the bed, but just put it up right, instead of laying down and strap it in with a lock.

    disadvantages of leasing a truck?

    I never leased before so can someone clarify the lease duration. No mater what happens the person leasing is on the hook for duration of the agreed payments? So for example, I sign up for a lease for 36 months. After 30 months, my dealer calls me to let me know that I can go into a new lease...

    I hate my lift, what should I get instead?

    Following thread. So I did get my Rough country 2" leveling strut for the front, and 1" n3 for the rears. Im happy with them. It feels stock to me, and no issues for the last 200 miles and 3 weeks I had them. I did do some offroading in them, and I was happy. Offroad, it was still a big stiff...

    I hate my lift, what should I get instead?

    Crap....now I regret in ordering RC leveling struts for my 1500. Has anybody have both for comparison? I used to have the 5100 on my old 2012 ram 1500. Good shocks but just a big too stiff for me. My charger has bilsteins and I'm just looking for a softer ride...but with a 2.5" lift. Did I make...

    Level kit

    Question in regards to lifts. Has anybody tried rough country coil over kit? I just ordered a set because it comes with the coils and everything... but I’m hesitant in regards to the ride. I had bilstein in my old 2012 ram, and it was a bit stiff, but I was fine with it. Owner of a 2020 Ram...

    Trying to order a 2021 1500

    This is a exactly what I did. Built my 2021 ram 1500 bighorn in hydro blue to my specs. But my dealer said “ oh...you want hydro blue...We have a 2020 Laramie on the lot....let’s talk” The rest...well see my signature...lol Owner of a 2020 Ram Laramie, 16 Dodge Charger scat pack and my wife...

    Headed for a look and test drive

    2021 RAM 1500 Pricing

    Only big deals you will find is any left over 2020...or early 2021’s. Here is a quick tip...when opening the door, on the sticker it tells you when it was built. The older, the better you might get a deal out of it. Owner of a 2020 Ram Laramie, 16 Dodge Charger scat pack and my wife 21 Jeep...

    Ordering a 2021: Is 3% under invoice plus any factory incentives at delivery a good deal?

    It's not as simple as " I want that truck, and give me the best deal on it" without knowing the numbers behind it and options you want.. No dealer that I've worked with, will ever show me the invoice of any car/truck even if I begged for it. Walking out of a deal isn't a powerful tool as it used...

    Ordering a 2021: Is 3% under invoice plus any factory incentives at delivery a good deal?

    The big question.... is it really 3% under invoice? Dealers are really hesitant on even offering those numbers. I would rather have a detailed breakdown of all of the cost...with any dealer fees, and tax/tags. Sounds too good to be true. You can’t just Google “invoice pricing on a 2021 ram...

    Multi-function tailgate?

    So just throwing it out there...has anyone just bought one and install it? My personal biggest headache is picking between the panoramic sunroof or the rambox. Pricong isn't too bad for the fancy tailgate. Only because if I cant find what I want, I might order the truck...and possibly get the...

    Multi-function tailgate?

    I'm always apprehensive about technology ( and this is coming from a computer guy that always looks for driver/firmware updates)..especially hardware technology. Like you and your jeep, sometimes, keeping it simple will last alot longer. I currently have 2005 ford f150 ( dont flame me on...

    Multi-function tailgate?

    No...it sucks because for some specific. Things require a level trim. When I was building my ram, qnd wanted the panoramic roof, it was dumping me to level 2...and i didn't want some of those feature. I think im not doing to do any purchases...because i want to see what November/December...

    Multi-function tailgate?

    I hope I’m wrong too. Congrats. If I do have the option to get one and I can afford it, I would get one as well. Passed owner of a 2012 Ram 1500

    Multi-function tailgate?

    I’m just “meh” with this side opening tailgate. I like the GM one better...where it pulls down to a step. Don’t get me wrong, it seems ok, and if I had the chance to order it, I would...but I can just feel that there will be alignment issues down the road with it. Passed owner of a 2012 Ram 1500

    Purchasing Help - Expected Pricing

    I'm definately in no rush to get something right now. Just getting my funds together. However, I might be able to do something by the end of the year. Is it better to order before the end of 2020 or wait until 2021? I know if I custom order I have to keep in mind a couple months of building...

    Purchasing Help - Expected Pricing

    Quesrion...so if i decide to order something instead...where can I find out what rebates I can get...like ramtrucks.com? Can I negotiate that price when ordering...basically can I ask for invoice right away? Do I check on rams site on day of order or delivery for rebates? How can I find out...

    Best way to get a discount off of MSRP on a Ram that's 1500 miles away?

    Well not within 5-10 seconds...when your at the dealer. Maybe during negotiations....but when your at the dealer...salesreps love to distract. I think a quick tool to find out what you can negotiate down to would at least be helpful...that’s all I’m saying. Passed owner of a 2012 Ram 1500

    Best way to get a discount off of MSRP on a Ram that's 1500 miles away?

    There is some good stuff here, but can I chime in on something? When purchasing a new car/truck...dealers rarely show us (more like me)the invoice....even if we (me) asked nicely. They just stick it to you with the monthly payments..which is not the way to do it. So if invoice is not possible...

    Local dealer ticked me off

    The service manage definately should have been more nicer and explain things a little better. Just for the sake of playing devils advocate here. Tires (im also going to add other common wear and tear items like brakes, window wipers,oil changes) are items that aren't covered by any type of...

    OMG this power wagon

    Thanks on the charger. Traded my 12 ram 1500 for her on 2016 scat pack. Love the car and I only have about another year or so to pay her off. I do miss doing some light offroad with my ram...so I will be shopping for a 5th gen. Im in a good spot so some of the minor issues can be ironed out by...
