Differences in 6'4" (6 foot 4 inch) bed between 5th gen 1500 and 2500 I bought the RSI SmartCap for my 2021 5th gen 1500 with 6'4" bed. I decided to sell it and had a number of persons with 5th gen 2500 trucks with 6"4" bed interested. RSI states there are slight differences in the tops between... -
SmartCap EVO Sport for 5th Gen 6'4" Bed (Quad Cab)
I wanted a bed topper for my 2022 Ram Quad Cab but ARE and Leer toppers are anywhere from 8 to 12 weeks out on orders. I decided to go with the SmartCap EVO Sport since the lead time was much shorter. It was more expensive than a similarly equipped fiberglass topper. With shipping I paid $4600... -
What is this & how to remove it
Looks like a base for a mobile workstation. If this was a work truck or police vehicle they often mount a computer on a swivel arm that the driver can use when stopped. Should be bolted thru the floor. If you look under the truck in that area there should be a plate with the bolts passing thru... -
Trailer Brake Controller
Tekonsha is a fine brand for a good price. I have one on my Ford Super duty for several years now and it has worked flawlessly. Should be plug and play if you get the right adapter. Etrailer is where I bought mine...- Chrisjoi

Newbie Q re. Batteries
I agree with all said above but want to add a bit about booster packs. Since most have on/off switches the issue with sparks is irrelevant because you can connect the clamps then energize the lines to jump start. I have a Schumacher and it works great. I also carry jumper cables and it is so...- Chrisjoi

Phone keeps cycling to radio and back again
Sorry I can't give credit to original poster but someone on here mentioned disabling Android auto connect and instead tell it to manually connect. Might be worth a shot.- Chrisjoi

Guys with the best Fore Thoughts 3.6 --> 6.2/6.4
Another aspect to consider is inflation. If most of us had known how high prices would be right now we would have bought a new truck two years ago. The big question is do you think prices will go down or continue to go up? I'm 52 years old and have never seen inflation reverse itself. Point...- Chrisjoi

2022 Ram 1500 Lonestar Crew Cab 4x4 V-6 , Level II or B, 3.55 rear, Uconnect 8.4 w/nav Observations
I have a 2022 V6, no 4x4 and live in the deep south. My truck idles high for cold morning warm ups so I think that is normal. As I understand it the transmission is warmed up as well so that may take the extra time and rpms. As for defrost, mine is all computer controlled so the truck does...- Chrisjoi

2022 Ram 1500 3.6 eTorque Experience
Hi everyone. I just purchased a new 2022 Ram 1500 with the 3.6 eTorque. I thought I would start a thread and update it frequently on my experiences with the truck. The eTorque is new to me. I have had a few Ram/Dodge trucks in the past and had some good and some bad experiences. I am hopeful...- Chrisjoi
