Got the first oil change out of the way. After 2000 km's I wanted to ditch the OEM oil and filter. I went full synthetic with Pennzoil Platinum and Pennzoil HPZ filter. No lifter tick whatsoever.
On a rather odd note, the tech had to top up the coolant. He said that all of the new Rams that he...
Sorry for the delay in updating.
I got my liner completely clean and it looks great. Here's what worked.
I sprayed the liner with Spray Nine (biodegradable), let it soak briefly, scrubbed with a soft-bristled tire brush, rinsed it clean with my pressure washer and let it air dry.
Well, I finally completed debadging my truck. I removed the "4x4" from the tailgate, the "RAM 1500" from the front doors and the "HEMI 5.7L" from the front fenders. I used fishing line to remove the badges and an eraser wheel to remove the 3M tape residue. It was pretty straight forward although...
I too left behind a 2015 F-150 for a number of reasons, not the least of which was the attitude of my local "dis-service" department.
I picked up a 2017 Copperhead Sport and could not be happier. I got SO much more truck for the money. An equally equipped Ford would have fetched a much higher...
Used an eraser wheel for the first time today. That is not for the faint of heart. Lol.
Twice some stubborn adhesive had me thinking I had f**ked up my clear coat. After a few deep breaths I hit it again with the eraser and it disappeared.
I finished up with Goo Gone Auto, wash, Meguiars...
Had a productive afternoon. I got my Wadestar RM10 blind spot mirrors put on.
Then I gave the interior a quick detail and put in my new Husky X-Act Contour Floor Liners. They look great and provide awesome coverage.
There was only one downside to the day. I removed...
Thanks for all of your responses. I am still assessing what I am going to do. The dealer is an hour away and I'm not sure I want to make the drive out there and put the truck back in their clearly incompetent hands.
I'll let you know what becomes of this mess.
Cleaner for Spray-In Bedliner - UPDATED
When I picked up my truck, I had the dealership install my Bakflip G2 tonneau cover. I am not sure what the hell the installers had on their boots when they did the install but my spray-in bedliner is now a mess.
I hit this with Armor All Car Wash...
Got the first "mods" complete (if you can call them that). Replaced the stock antenna with this stubby from AMI Styling. It is 3", billet, black powder-coat. I live in a fairly urban area so I have not noticed any issues with reception at this point.
Then, I finally removed the dealer...
