    Synthetic oil or not?

    My Ram has 21000,miles on it . Just started doing the famous hemi- tick only on cold start up. Have taken it to the dealer for all my oil changes. They don't use synthetic ,just the standard oil. Should I change to full synthetic now? It says in my owners manual standard oil is recommended /...

    Does the 5th gen 5.7L have the dreaded MDS lifter issue?

    I have 21,000 now and for the first time using remote start I heard the dreaded tick on a cold start. My 2014 Ram and my 2017 Ram had the same thing very annoying. I had hoped this 5 gen was going to be different but I was wrong plus 20 recalls for the 2019 is absolutely ridiculous. Now I'm...

    Mirrors?

    My Ram came with tow mirrors and the signal indicator on the top of mirror housing. I much rather have the signal strip on the bottom ,I think it's a far better feature . I'm going to add an amber led light on the bottom of my tow mirrors using t- taps wire connectors .

    Wind noise.

    Part number is 68309888AA.A simple rubber weather strip that sits between the bed and the cab .5 push button fasteners.Super easy too install.Ram Assembly line I guess decided not to install this on some of our trucks!!Crazy.My thoughts are it causes some kind of turbolance between the too.

    What's with all of the hatred for these 2019 Ram's?

    For sure .Ram has great packages, decent pricing.I Qualified for 0 percent financing,90 days until first payment plus my dealer offers lifetime power train warranty.A lot of folks just don't like Ram , baffles me .

    What's with all of the hatred for these 2019 Ram's?

    I don't about y'all but I get nothing but lip about my Ram 1500. Garbage trucks ,don't waste your money Fiat Chrysler is horrible etc...I don't get it. This is by far the best truck I've owned,not perfect but darn close.
