    Current Thoughts on Oil Type for 3.6 Litre Pentastar Engine

    Use any oil that meets the spec noted in your manual. Don't overthink it. When was the last time you heard of an oil related engine failure?

    What strange contraption is this under the rearview mirror housing ?

    Looks like the collision avoidance/lane assist sensor.

    Fuel Tank Size

    Why not measure the dimensions of your tank and compare to something on a local dealer lot?

    Reverse light wire color

    I'm installing a Recon light strip above the bumper and need to tap for reverse light. Does anybody know which wire it is? Thanks in advance!

    Media always plays when I start up.

    I just got my truck and saw an option for that when going thru settings. Give it a try.

    About to order a 2018!! Last minute questions...

    3.21 gears are going to be better for mileage; you can't argue the math on this one. You will love the truck with 3.21s if you don't tow anything heavy. I have and love the Bilstein 5100s on front and rear. Did the switch on a two week old truck. Parts and labor about $800. As for CAI...

    Factory wheel cracked

    I wouldn't be so quick to dump the dealer. I think it's pretty universal in the industry that dealers will not cannibalize a vehicle for parts. They run the risk of causing damage while doing so. They'd have to unmount and mount two wheels, balance them, etc. and couldn't sell or even display...

    Driver door wind noise

    I've heard the same issue on my 2017 Laramie Crew Cab. With the driver's door open there is a seal visible that's at the front edge of the rear door. I've found mine loose several times and reset it. Give that a try.

    Breaking.

    Before going to the dealer I would find a safe place to do 4 or 5 50-0 stops in a row. Sometimes just getting them hot will cure a squeak.

    Laramie Headlights

    Laramie has DRL capability but is not activated in the US. I had the dealer do mine during their pre-delivery service.

    Laramie Headlights

    Laramie are HID with LED turn signals.

    Bilstien Help!

    You raise the front to level the truck. If you raise the back, too, you're putting the rake back in it. If your goal is to raise it so that bigger tires/wheels fit then you may want a spacer of up to 1 inch in the rear. The 5100s can handle that. Any higher and you'll need different shocks. I...

    First time truck owner, your recommendation on maintenance intervals?

    ^^^ I agree. The 1000 or 3000 and even the 5000 mile oil change is old school thinking. Change it when it tells you to. Save the planet.

    Help getting true mileage read

    I think it's a violation of federal law to swap a cluster without doing paperwork to record the actual mileage. It needs to be done by a certified shop and the title to the vehicle will be branded to reflect that the actual mileage differs from that of the odometer. The best way to do it is to...
