    Front Rack for carrying a motorcycle/scooter/bike

    Does anyone have adaptive cruise control, and does a bike on the front of the truck interfere with ACC working?

    Front mounted bike rack and adaptive cruise control - still work?

    Roughly how high are the handlebars above the hood line?

    Front mounted bike rack and adaptive cruise control - still work?

    Thanks! I'll also talk with a couple Ram dealers. Perhaps I could do a quick test with even heavy cardboard attached to the front.

    Front mounted bike rack and adaptive cruise control - still work?

    Thanks for the response. Appreciate it. Not towing. Can't lose adaptive cruise control. Swing rear hitches are crazy EXPENSIVE. Anybody else out there have any thoughts on this?

    Front mounted bike rack and adaptive cruise control - still work?

    I am considering putting a front mounted hitch receiver on my 2021 3500 in order to put a bike rack for two bikes on the front of the truck. Would the bikes be an issue for my adaptive cruise control functionality or auto high beams?

    Maxcare Extended Warranty Cover Rear Air Suspension?

    I have a 2021 3500 SRW Short Box Crew Cab with factory Air Suspension. I just bought a Maxcare 8 year, 100K extended warranty from Ziegler. Nowhere in the literature does it mention the auto factory Rear Air Suspension, compressor or other components. It notes front air suspension is covered...

    Warranty question - 2021 Ram 3500 almost 1 year old

    Will Ziegler negotiate a bit? I got a quote for my 2021 3500 srw, gas; Maxcare 100K, 7 year, $200 deductible, "Pay in full" of $2075. They were the cheapest of the 4 companies I looked at. I'm guessing tax gets added on to that as well. It is 11 months old, and only has 9300 miles on it.

    Warranty question - 2021 Ram 3500 almost 1 year old

    Would the Maxcare cover the electronics for 7 years rather than just the 3 year, 36,000 mile warranty?

    Warranty question - 2021 Ram 3500 almost 1 year old

    I've had my 2021 Ram 3500 crew cab SRW short box for almost one year. I have the air bag rear suspension, as well as the safety package which includes Adaptive Cruise Control. I am considering an extended warranty due to the extreme electronics in the truck, and the auto air bag suspension. I...

    7 pin - need to turn off 12v How?

    Thanks all! This should do it, and it should be an easy install, and it works automatically. Inexpensive too! https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B071Y7C9MM/ref=as_li_tl?ie=UTF8&camp=1789&creative=9325&creativeASIN=B08NQ6KCCP&linkCode=as2&tag=stonyboot-20&linkId=4aaafb01c37b04ce2c702786417d4c65&th=1

    7 pin - need to turn off 12v How?

    I need to be able to easily turn off the 12v power to the truck's 7 pin trailer connector. When I have my truck camper on the truck, and everything is turned off, including the camper's power and battery, it drains the battery on the truck. I have the optional toggle switches in the cab of the...

    3500 tire pressures when empty?

    Just picked up a new 2021 Ram Big Horn 3500 Crew Cab srw short box 6.4 gas with rear air bag suspension. Pressures call for 60 front, 80 rear. I'm using the truck for a slide-in camper. When there is no load, approximately how soft can I reasonably deflate the tires so my liver isn't being...

    6.4 Hemi or Cummins

    I have a 2021 3500 Big Horn Crew Cab 4x4 srw short box ordered for use with a slide in camper. I spoke with three diesel mechanics as to whether I should go gas or diesel. They were all adamant I go with the 6.4 gas. They said diesel's are a pain to deal with today with sensor failures, regular...
