It was supposed to be my 20 year truck......BUT I wanted a toy hauler so I did the endless amount of free internet research and it culminated...

    Bought my wife a 2019 EcoDiesel - Reliable?

    So with the economy in shambles, I took advantage of it and bought my wife a new 2019 Classic Laramie 4x2 EcoDiesel crew cab. The sticker was 51k but I got it out the door (including insane CA taxes -$4000- and registration fees-$770-) for 31k. I've seen a lot of poor reviews about the EcoDiesel...

    Toy Hauler for 1500

    I'll repost my original post to try to keep things on topic here as a reminder for why I'm seeking advice on this forum. I have a 2019 Bighorn Crew, 6.3ft Bed (153" wheel base) Hemi 4x4 with 3.92 gears and the tow package. According to the ram website, my tow rating is 11,240 and payload is...

    Toy Hauler for 1500

    I'm fine with a small toy hauler. I dont need a huge trailer. It's just my wife, 3 year old daughter and I. The closest camping destination we would take it to is an hour and a half away. I looked at buying the 4th Gen 2500 6.4l Hemi but the tow rating was really close between the two. Payload...

    Toy Hauler for 1500

    I have a 2019 Bighorn Crew, 6.3ft Bed (153" wheel base) Hemi 4x4 with 3.92 gears and the tow package. According to the ram website, my tow rating is 11,240 and payload is 1,780. I don't have airbags but I will be putting them on my truck if I buy a trailer. This is my second RAM truck and I love...

    14' Express 4X4 Leveling/Tires

    Ooops. Another important piece of information is that I often park in a parking garage at work that requires my truck to be no higher than 6'10". At the factory height right now, I always feel like I'm going to smack my head on a concrete overhang. Anyone know the factory height?

    14' Express 4X4 Leveling/Tires

    I have a 14' Express "Black edition" 4X4. I'm looking at putting the 2.5" Rancho leveling spacers in anticipation of purchasing new tires. I really like the 20" 5 spoke black wheels that came with the truck. I'm looking for a good set of AT tires that will fit the stock wheel. I live in...

    How Can I tell if I have an 8 Speed?

    I crawled under the truck and saw I have 3.92 gears when I thought I had 3.55. Its a 2014 5.7l 4x4. When I use the manual shift on the steering column it only lets me select 6 speeds but when I'm driving normally and not flooring it, it appears to have more speeds. It will do about 45mph in 1st...

    Free Power Mods

    Well, I'm pretty sure I gots them 3.55 gears. Honestly I'm not even sure if I got the 8 speed. How can I tell?

    Intake and Exhaust

    Are there any intakes that improve performance, but won't suck up a bunch of dust while going off road? I guess that makes a true cold air out of the question.

    Good rubber for 20" wheels?

    Is is possible to get some good grippy rubber for the factory 20" wheels on my 14 express 4x4 black edition? I LOVE the look of the stock wheel, but the raptor and ram rebel both use 17" wheels for those thicker sidewalls. I'm not trying to make my ram a rock crawler, unstoppable machine, but...

    14 express premium cluster upgrade

    Any word how dodge feels about the cluster in a warranty situation or the DMV? I know when you sell a vehicle, the DMV asks if the cluster has been changed. Also, I know some auto manufacturers will immediately void the warranty of the entire vehicle if the cluster is changed.

    USB flash drive issues

    Hello, I have a 2014 ram with the 5.0 system that has been flashed with the most recent update. I've been playing all my music via USB since the bluetooth option is extremely unacceptable. However, my USB flash drive music will fail after about 10 minutes or so and I get a USB ERROR RECONNECT...
