    Wheel Lock Help

    Tighten the other lug nuts slightly to take some pressure off the locking lug then apply the right sized easyout and it should come off easily.

    2017 Dodge Ram fish tailing

    Seems pretty obvious to me. Especially with driving a red truck - simply add 250lbs of sand bags in the truck bed and problem solved regardless of air pressure! Simple and cheap the redneck way!

    Your other vehicle

    My buddy in Wisconsin buys Honda CRV with AWD and has over 250K with no problems. He also likes the Toyota Rav4

    Stick shift anyone?

    My Porsche 911 is manual shift too! Great car - you should get one!

    tailgate

    I think this should start off as “Hold my beer…” but seriously if 500 lbs scares you then just pay to have it delivered and bolted to your floor. Those guys have the experience to get it done quickly and “safely” pardon the pun. Happy wife and no broken pieces of your house. Some safes you...

    Stick shift anyone?

    My 2006 2500 4x4 is manual. I really like the manual transmission but not so much in Houston rush hour traffic. On the occasional times I take it in for maintenance I always get a few people asking if I want to sell it. With only 62K miles I will be holding on to it for a long time especially...

    IS IT TIME 5.7 TO GET DROPPED ???

    I’m getting a new company truck. F150 with 3.5L Powerboost Hybrid. Great looking specs and highest HP gas engine. I will be interested in seeing if the 24 MPG City and Hwy is real. 430HP and 510 ft# torque should be fun to drive. 0-60 at 5.3 secs is not shabby either. Still not selling my...

    Check engine light on after changing spark plugs.

    Consider yourself lucky. When I changed the copper plugs on my ‘06 Hemi the truck ran fine but 1 mile down the road the computer went out and I got an error message that one injector went out too. Mechanic checked my work and it was perfect. No more problems after the repair.

    Building a new garage, what do you wish you had...

    I’ve seen garage doors on both sides of the garage. Seems like a good idea especially if the back side has a cover for back burner projects or just grilling and such. Sounds like a great addition!

    2015 6.4l hemi fuel pump

    I have a 3rdGen 2006 2500 and need a fuel pump too. Mopar discontinued and only Chinese replacements. Any better options?

    Cam failures or not. How many miles have you gone?

    Recently switched all oils & radiator fluid to Amsoil. No engine tiks or failures at 62K miles on my 2006 Ram 2500 4x4 Hemi 5.7 with 6 speed manual but I did have the main computer fail after a spark plug/tune up. Gas mileage sucks but it's paid for and still looks new. Only upgrades left are...

    The real consequence of driving without insurance

    Ditti to your \response Mr. Fields. Houston court system is letting out felons faster than the police can file the paperwork. Cops pick them back up doing the same offense the next day and it is a revolving door downtown. What a waste. New Police Chief won't change a thing either.

    What did you say when you saw your truck for the first time?

    Funny I was always a Ford or Chevy guy and heard all the stories of how bad a Dodge Truck can be. My ‘06 Ram 2500 4x4 has proven reliable and has had minimum problems. Had to replace the computer for unknown reasons but everything else is ok. The ride was super stiff (it’s a 3/4 ton duh) but...

    Normal Power Wagon handling?

    I put the 3" Carli Lift and track bar on my '06 2500 4x4 and stayed with the E Load tires and the ride is good. I also put the steering box stabilizer on several years ago and that was a huge improvement with the stock front end. The ride has much more compliance and the back end doesn't hop...

    Do you guys think all Gen 3 5.7L Hemi engines are doomed for lifter/cam failure?

    My '06 only has 60K miles but no problems. Always used Mobil 1 with regular changes with a premium brand oil filter. Recently switched to Amsoil due to the lifter failure thread and do not have any of the lifter noise that has been reported by others. Truck is paid for and no plans on getting...
