    Excessive fuel consumption while towing?

    What ever you do, don't try to save gas when towing. Especially with a gas engine. If you attempt to keep the RPM's down, it will only be additional strain to the engine and transmission. Higher RPMs should be the normal for towing.

    Spare tire TPM

    Crazy why they wouldn't, I put on the spare and had 10 lbs in it and limped to the nearest air pump. It would have been nice to get a warning that the spare was low... Funny, if I stick one in the spare and start doing donuts. lol.

    Spare tire TPM

    2017 1500 Limited, I had to use my spare tire recently and realized it had no TPM on the spare. A little back story: I purchased the truck used and the dealer probably switched the original spare out with another truck. I presume the spare tire would normally have a TPM? Has anyone purchased an...

    Buying used; Ram Rebel or Tundra SR5?

    IMO Tundra=reliability & longevity but years behind in the creature comforts and the ride. Ram=up to date technology and smooth riding yet capable truck. I went from a 06 Tundra, that I put 300K+ on, to the Ram because over that last 14yrs I have grown older and wanted comfort. lol

    Mopar Vehicle Protection Plan

    Email [email protected], he definitely will beat the internet pricing. I got mine through him. send him your VIN and let him know what warranty plan you want. Make sure you don't over buy years to mileage. I'm good till 2025@85K. I currently have 20K on my 2017.

    Warranty???

    Here is the big factor in buying a warranty, how many miles will you have on it by 2027? 8yrs is the longest warranty offered by FCA. Why pay for 120K mile warranty when maybe you only need 85K, that is a big cost difference. The other factor is to buy one now or wait a couple of years, but...

    5% tint

    My nephew is a cop in AZ, and he states they have been told not to pull anyone over for tinted windows as it is considered a judgement call on the part of the officer which can cause more issues of legality. Officers are not trained as tint darkness meters readers. Of course he has limo tint on...

    Suggestions on easy to apply wax or polish...

    If you live in or near a large city, just have a mobile detail company or a detail shop do it. I have mine done twice a year with polymer sealant. What ever you do, don't let a car wash place do it. I use to love waxing my vehicles... not so much as I've gotten older.

    Towing: Gas vs diesel debate, 1500 & 3500

    You don't say how often you tow? I have a 25ft toyhauler and probably push 9K. My own dilemma was I use my truck as a daily driver and wanted comfort and better MPG. I maybe tow my rig every other month so why punish myself with a rougher ride and less MPG every day. I'm not in a race when I tow...
