    Oil filter fell off!!

    It's not just Ram. I've got a 2022 Silverado 5.3. I did an oil change on it in December with `5k on the clock. I used all AC Delco oil and filter to satisfy the warranty should I need to use it. Pulled into the driveway one day to see all sorts of oil drips where I park. Long story short...

    What Rocket Scientist Designed This ?

    I've been an Industrial and Manufacturing mechanic for over forty years now. One company I worked for included me in all the product design meetings for that very reason. I was responsible for design and build of all production equipment as well as to guide the design team of manufacturing...

    Cash out your RAM??

    My 2022 Chevy has automatic temperature control, but the knobs no longer have the digital readout due to GM conserving the chips for other parts of the truck. The salesman told me that I was lucky I had heated seats and the new Tahoe doesn't come with them anymore due to the chip shortage...

    Cash out your RAM??

    I also made the jump. I had a 2017 Laramie that I owned outright. I have had nothing but problems since Safelite replaced my windshield and got t-b o n e d by a Postal truck. I went to the local Chevy dealer in November and they gave me $31,500 on a trade in for a 2022 Silverado LT LTD. Four...

    I'm at my wit's end with my windshield.......

    It doesn't have a sunroof. Is it possible for the third brake light to leak and run to the front of the cab? I've been through the car wash with no leaks, but that was before this started again.

    I'm at my wit's end with my windshield.......

    Short story is my windshield was replaced by Safelite in October of 2020. Soon after there would be a large amount of water running down the inside of the windshield in the morning, regardless of rain or not. Not just condensate, but a full windshield of large beads of water that would run down...

    Ham Radio Antenna

    I like this thread as I just got my Technician license (KC1QAQ). I am starting the process of looking at a good mobile radio and antenna. My father always wanted me to get my license, but way back in the 70's you needed to know Morse code and that caused me to lose interest. Now that I got my...

    Pranks ! While normally taboo to mess with someone's ride ...

    I won't mess with anyone's vehicle as I don't want mine messed with. I used to work second shift as a mechanic at a local plastics company. We would line up at the time clock up front at 11:25, after we pulled our cars up to the front door, leaving them running.. My boss was a short round guy...

    I'm not a millennial.

    "You do realize that the top couple of rows of the AC condenser in the Ram 1500 w/ZF 8spd transmission are the transmission cooler." I did not.

    I'm not a millennial.

    "OP on this thread made an account to complain about it and hasn't been back since? Figures." Wait until he has to change out the A/C condenser in the Chevy because some genius engineer decided to use it as the transmission cooler too. Unless they stopped doing that, but I doubt it. I came back...

    No I do not want to race you in your truck

    When I had my 81 Camaro I used to get trucks that would try to race me. Even with a 388 under the hood the car was a sled. It's not worth it to me. One day I was going down Chestnut St in Wilmington, real windy road, and an NSX was toying with me. I didn't even bother. Now I have my 01 Mustang...

    Alpine system upgrade consensus?

    I used the iDatalink Maestro RR. All of the factory settings/buttons work, except the microphone. Also, I have even more functions than the truck had stock. The Maestro RR let's you define which buttons do what and you can add extra features. For example, the steering wheel controls on the left...

    Alpine system upgrade consensus?

    I kept the stock Alpine system in my Ram, but replaced the 8.4NAV with an Alpine head with navigation built in. My system sounds so much better now. Being a bass player, I like a lot of low end, which I get, but it is just so crisp and tight now.

    Anyone Remove the RAM on the tailgate and get some sort of retro decal?

    I ordered one of these for the tailgate on my 2017 Ram.

    Front lifted higher than the rear WTH?

    What I've been seeing a lot here in Massachusetts is trucks lifted with stock height tires but really wide with street tread. They stick out so far the first thing that comes to mind is "yabba dabba dooo". There is a group of them that travel together in the Merrimack Valley area. They all have...
