    Ram Rebel Overlander Journey

    Mostly finished with my build. Taking the rig on a test run to the Grand Canyon. Left Philly on Saturday. Working our way slowly across the southern US. Here are some highlights.

    Help! Keys locked inside?

    Which is crazy, because I called Stellantis Roadside Assistance instead, figuring that was what they would do.

    Help! Keys locked inside?

    Thank you all for your responses. Some of you were correct. You can infact lock your fob in the center console. That’s where we found them after the locksmith opened the door.

    Help! Keys locked inside?

    Hey all: I went hiking this morning and at the end of the day I could not get back into my truck! The thing is, I got the truck to the trailhead, so I definitely had them then. They might be in the camper, but we looked everywhere. They might be in the truck. (Can they be in the truck...

    Overlanding Rig payload questions

    I definitely approached this all from a ready, fire, aim perspective in hindsight. The camper is designed for a Tacoma and I never though past, “If it works on a small truck it’ll be fine on this.” It’s good to know this stuff. I’m gonna do my best to work with this, but knowing where my...

    Overlanding Rig payload questions

    Hey all: Posted here and there. The Swamp Monster (the name is a work in progress) had the camper installed last week and, we’ll, it’s kinda heavy. I drove it 400 miles home with no issues, other than a rough ride, and now I’ve had a pair of 1500lb Sumo Springs installed. What I’m really...

    And then got her dirty. And stuck. Banged the right drivers front wheel so hard it set off the collision system and disabled the power steering! It reset and she is none the worse for wear.

    2022 Ram Rebel: My build notes

    The truck went in to be wrapped this week. I can’t wait to reveal the new color scheme. In the meantime I’ve recovered from the fire, installed the pedal commander and the red button, and removed the rear 40 split and have started building a cargo platform. In the meantime, the Carli system...

    Rear seat delete

    I pulled the 40 split from my 60/40 rear so I can build a wooden platform. Now the rear heated seats are not working. Anyone know if it’s because the harness for the 40 side is disconnected?

    What did you do with your 5th Gen this week?

    Well, after the suspension work, the fire, the rehab and the cleaning, I dropped my truck off to have spacers installed, so that the UCAs don’t rub. Some day I will drive her again.
