    Does anyone know what the accessory purpose of this area is supposed to be?

    I keep an extra magazine for my carry gun on the driver side cubby. Bluetooth OBDII code reader on the passenger side.

    What did you pay for your truck at the dealership?

    2017 Express Crew Cab 4x4, 5.7, 3.21, 20" wheels, 5" radio, block heater, tow package, LED bed lights. Purchased new in May 2018 as leftover, sticker was just over $45K, paid just under $29K. 36% off MSRP! I also tried to trade in a 2006 Nissan Frontier crew cab 4x4, but the dealer only...

    Rambox value killer?

    Looks like I'm the odd man out, I thought the Ram box looked awesome until I saw it in person for the first time and saw how much bed space it took up. No hauling a 4 wheeler in the bed, less room for hauling firewood, etc. Just wouldn't work for my needs.

    Storage pocket next to radio?

    Those little cubby holes are great ammunition holders!

    Show me your phone holders

    I just bought this, so far so good. I clipped it to the driver's side vent. As a bonus it also wirelessly charges my phone, which is great because my charging port is shot on my phone (Galaxy S7). https://smile.amazon.com/gp/product/B079L4TRW1/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 The...

    Anyone use the Mopar site?

    Yeah I use it for both my van and the truck. Logged in today and I officially have a notice for the cruise control recall on the truck. I'll also use it to keep track of maintenance and repairs when needed.

    Considering purchasing an ‘18 Hemi 1500

    That's pretty good! I paid about that much for a '17 Express last month. Sticker was a bit over 45 and I got out of there just under 29. Ended up being a little over $16K off sticker.

    What DON'T you like about your RAM?

    So as long as something is plugged in to the seat belt buckle it won't autopark? Great to know, thank you!!

    What DON'T you like about your RAM?

    I'm just over 1,000 miles now and found my first big complaint - autopark!! I discovered just how much it sucks last night when hooking up to my fish house/camper. It was pretty annoying having to make sure the door was shut before backing up the last 6" to hook up to the camper. I was...

    Hail obliterated my hood and some quarter panels - '18 1500

    We had about 60 seconds of hail not quite that big around this time last summer. Did over $20k worth of damage to my old truck, car, RV, and house roof/gutters. Amazing how much damage hail can do in very little time.

    How to turn Seatbelt Chime off

    I agree, but I can think of a few scenarios where I don't wear a seatbelt, main one being when we're driving out on frozen lakes up here. There are times when we drive 10+ miles out onto Lake of the Woods to go ice fishing. It can get pretty annoying listening to the chime for half an hour or...

    MexiRams out there?

    My 2017 CC Express was built in Mexico on the 4th of July. Kind of ironic if you ask me.....

    Rebuild Transmission or Trade in?

    You're about where I was a month ago - older truck facing repairs, lots of miles on it, etc. I started looking around at used trucks, had a bit of sticker shock, then realized I could get into a brand new '17 Express for about the same price as a used Big Horn or Laramie with 60k+ miles on...
