S type snow chains for 60" tires?
Yep, and they all think 4x4's have different brakes than 4x2's They seem to forget that just because they can accelerate quickly on snowy roads, they may not be able to stop and steer quite as easily.- Boxman

Regarding gas mileage. My wife and I took a 3000 mile round trip this fall in my 2022 1500, Big Horn 4x4 , 3.55 rear, 20 inch tires, 3.6 v6. Trip was from S Cal to Dallas, TX and return. I was driving freeway speeds, 75 to 80mph. (Love texas limits!). Once out of California gas, I was quite...- Boxman

New Bighorn, brought her home today!
Congratulations on your new truck!. I just got my 2022 Bighorn 2 months ago. Really like it. Night edition, but in Billet Silver. I definitely like the night edition. Was always a chrome guy, but these look great! My previous 2013 Bighorn was also a great ride. Took it across USA after...- Boxman

Moisture inside my truck
I had water issues under the rear passenger seat on my 2013 CC. As stated by others, water can come in through rear slider, even if weep hole is clean, if too much water is directed on rear window. My problem was the 3rd brake light. Silicone solved it. I only mention the rear window because...- Boxman

Radio won’t play on acc
I have same issue. I contacted Ram Care. They stated that the radio won't play on ACC. I have to push the start button 2 times quickly with foot off the brake. This is RUN START. But with foot off brake, of course engine won't start. But all my electronics work. If you don't press 2 times...- Boxman

Who's got a V6 Ram 1500 5th Gen
Just bought my 2nd Ram v6. My previous 2013 Bighorn ran well. No complaints about power, but I don't tow much. Traded for a 2022 v6 after 110,000 trouble free miles. I couldn't believe that the hemi has a $2300 price on window stickers. Do they really cost that much more to build than v6? Or is...- Boxman

Oil Pressure and Trans Temp Question on new truck
I would like some input on the oil pressure and transmission temperature on my new 2022 Ram 1500 v6 Pentastar etorque. My previous 2013 Ram v6 had oil pressures as follows': Cold was 45 psi at idle. Any increase in rpm and pressure would be 70-80 until engine warmed up. Then consistently jn...- Boxman

3:55 gear owners, what rpm are you...
I may have read your question wrong. I find the 3.55 gears to work pretty well if not heavy trailering.. I have only trailered once. 5x10 covered uhaul loaded. 1000 mile trip thru KY, Ark, and TX. Had no problems with KY hills. Kept in tow/haul thru the steeper ones. Only gas mileage...- Boxman

3:55 gear owners, what rpm are you...
I had 3.55 gears on my 2013 v6. Just purchased 2022 with 3.55 v6. I like this combination. Not sure about your question. I let truck pick. It pulls 55 in 8th on level driving. RPM somewhere around 1500. More Than a Slight pedal push drops it to 7th. It appears to run 78 mph at 2000 rpm. It...- Boxman
