Removal of badges!!
If at all possible try to warm them by using a heat gun or blow dryer in order to help loosen the adhesive. Then use fishing line to get behind it the emblem/adhesive and just use a back and forth saw motion to get it off. I just carefully used my finger to take off any larger pieces that didnt... -
5.7 whine on cold startup
My bad, I worded that wrong and you misunderstood me. I meant that I did the muffler delete to my ram! But as for my eco I personally didnt like the sound of it even with an exhaust system. But I had a good buddy who installed the Borla ATAK and personally I think that exhaust sounds the best...- slorammy

5.7 whine on cold startup
No joke man! I miss that 6.2 roar though, A LOT! You ever ridden in one before? But yeah live it up and enjoy it. I will say thats the one thing I like about the hemi compared to the eco is the v8. Gotta love it. It was definitely a change at first but since I did my muffler delete I can't complain.- slorammy

It’s considered concealed in LE eyes. My tried and true personal duty weapon. Where it’s at your trigger isn’t compromised and wont be moving or rattling. The only time it’s going to come out is if i use it or if I wreck (necessary risk). Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk- slorammy

5.7 whine on cold startup
Hell yeah man. I hear ya! Dealerships make their money on pickup hungry addicts like you and I! That’s what happened when I bought my raptor. I had my 13ecoboost for less than a yr then said screw it im buying my dream truck! I took a hit considering I put down 10 grand for my eco. But I don’t...- slorammy

5.7 whine on cold startup
Thats exactly right. Some of these seem to be a non-issue for ram if they aren't being corrected for whatever reason. But yes, we are experiencing the same go around when it comes to these "normal" problems. But hey like they say, you gotta play to play! That was my motto with my raptor! Its...- slorammy

5.7 whine on cold startup
Yes, I told the dealer I wanted them to check out that hum in reverse. After my apt they talked to me and gave me paper work that said "the customer stated the pickup makes a humming/whine while in reverse". The head technician took the vehicle to the parking and was able to recreate the noise...- slorammy

Extended warranty suggestions.
In my situation didn't when I bought my raptor new for a few reasons. I believe you get what you pay for and I knew I would have a reliable truck. If something came up later after my 36k ran out I knew I would have the cash to pay for whatever happened. Also, its a raptor and I used it for what...- slorammy

Defrost is ALWAYS RUNNING HOT
Agreed. I'm in new ram owner after 3 fords but these trucks seem to have minor but yet annoying attributes. Whining in reverse, defroster, misaligned cab, flickering dash lights w/ no fix. Slowly but surely learning about the ram life and these trucks. Thanks for the responses- slorammy

5.7 whine on cold startup
I hear ya. Like I said I know engines make noise. I traded my 4yr raptor with 100k that I drove the wheels off of and never had that. I have an eco boost patrol truck for work that gets driven even harder with 90k. When I say this sound is obnoxious it’s exactly that. My coworker has a 17 ram...- slorammy

Defrost is ALWAYS RUNNING HOT
Agreed. From what I'm gathering with the amount of information known the defrost is meant solely for "defrosting". Not to be used as a regular air flow setting....I wish it could be used as a regular air flow setting. When its cold out while driving I hate having that air on my feet or body...- slorammy

Dealer- “Engine making not noise understand you”. Me -“p*ss off will now you”. The humor is appreciated having had my fair share of knock down drag outs with stealerships.- slorammy

Defrost is ALWAYS RUNNING HOT
I've owned fords my whole life and my patrol truck is a ford as well. I've always used the defrost to keep it comfortable inside. Seems odd to me that it would be that way.- slorammy

Defrost is ALWAYS RUNNING HOT
lol I'm dead serious. I know this sounds dumb but I've went on all winter ignoring the stupid fact that it happens but now its just annoying. At first I figured maybe its meant to be that way considering ram has it so the fan turns up automatically when you turn the defrost on but the more I...- slorammy

Defrost is ALWAYS RUNNING HOT
This being the first winter with the ram I've noticed when the front defrost is on my in 15 laramie that the air is ridiculously HOT! When I first noticed it I gradually kept turning the temp down and it didnt start to cool down the temp until I was in the mid 60's. It occurs every time so I...- slorammy

I plasti dipped my badges instead of buying the black ones. Dipped my wheels as well. Turned out great and holds up well. I also just put my G21 in the removable door cup holder in my drivers side door. Sits perfectly and doesn't move around. Plus I'm left handed so its convenient and doesn't...- slorammy
