    Buying 2019 Limited - is Mopar “lifetime” warranty legit?

    My understanding when I bought mine from Ziegler last year was that after 12 months you can still buy (up to 3/36) however you are likely to not be offered the discounts that many offer when it is a new vehicle. On top of the fact that the premium will likely increase year to year.

    Torn on what to do...help!

    Just keep in mind that trucks require more patience when parking and you can’t see over the hood as well (it’s easier to take out shopping carts until you get used to it - Trust me on that). If find that I prefer to back into spots to make getting out easier. I notice many truck drivers do the...

    Is Factory Air Suspension a Good Idea?

    My 2017 Limited has had no trouble with the air- and I like the ability to adjust height with a button. It gets cold here- double digits below 0. I do have a solution regarding longevity- get the maxcare warranty. It’s a bargain especially with the air suspension.

    '18 Limited Pricing

    This is pretty much exactly the same pricing I got on a 17' Limited in late November last year. I think that is a solid deal on a luxury truck! FYI- It looks like they changed the hood to the sport look and instead of chrome bumpers and tailgate badging they went with matching paint. Also...

    Paint protection film question

    I did my new White 17 Limited with Xpel- full hood, partial fenders and the part between the chrome bumper and grille. Also all four lights up front. The installer recommended full hood as the Ram hood curves can be tricky. The line on the fender and flares is slightly visible depending on the...

    Questions you should know the answers to but don't... Post here!

    So I think I discovered something about the heated seats and steering wheel and why many feel they are not working properly. I jumped in the Limited today after autostarting it and noticed the wheel was much cooler than normal. After a few miles I was beginning to think I had an issue, but...

    Need some help w Limited 1500 I just bought

    Definitely get that checked. Incidentally I took mine in to the dealer and they said all four tires were out of balance from the factory. Hard to believe- but that might be some of it.

    Limited leather question (s)

    Hi all- Really liking my 2017 Limited. Enough that I committed to the Maxcare lifetime warranty and adding Xpel to the front and hood. I had what might be a dumb question about the interior- is it all leather including the dash? If there is any pleather on the seats I can’t even tell. Even...

    Need some help w Limited 1500 I just bought

    Wondering if your air suspension has smoothed out any? I also thought that my new limited had too much vibration condsidering it had the air, but I have noticed after 2k it is much better. I have either gotten used to it or just needed some miles to soften. Anyone else have a similar experience?

    Extended warranty suggestions.

    I like the idea of self insurance as well, however I doubt my full $2700 initial principle balance could make it the 5 much less 10 Years that it will take to fully compound into $7000. That’s the rub- if after your warranty expires you have any issues, your self insurance fund will deplete...

    Extended warranty suggestions.

    Those of us who purchased the warranty did so with the expectation that FCA would act in good faith if a claim was ever required - and that it would essentially be an extension of the 3 yr/36K factory warranty. In my research prior to buying, i did not hear any examples of where that was not...

    '13 Hemi to a '17 Eco thoughts?

    The missing variable is the difference in cost between gas and diesel. In the Midwest where I live it is running about .40-.50 cents higher for diesel. At 15k per year that adds up to a savings of about $300 per year for the eco. The upgrade cost to get the Eco is between 3-4K depending on...
