    Looks like I'm never buying RAM again...

    My Pentastar has more horsepower and torque than any V8 that I grew up loving. In fact it's a marvel of engineering that GM could make so little power using 400+ cubic inches! Plus my Ram is more reliable and has great gas mileage. The last V8 I had blew up because it had that awful AFM garbage...

    Uconnect fees

    You're right. Uconnect is $750 for my 2014 1500. They are constantly sending me emails with a discount coupon for $150 discount to activate their ****** navigation on my truck. Mine didn't come with navigation but I can have it activated at the dealership as long as I pay their extortion fee for...

    3.6L Pentastar V6 Engine Lawsuit

    I have 145K on my Ram 1500 and not a thing wrong with it. Regular oil changes is all I've had to do. It's time for major maintenance but I haven't made up my mind to keep it or trade it in. I specifically bought this truck for this motor because my Chevy Silverado with their terrible AFM blew...

    2018 Laramie vs. 2019 Tradesman--which do you like and why?

    The 2 trucks are like night and day. Hard to compare them to each other. I'd pick the Laramie every time. If all you want or need is a very basic truck then the other will do. I wouldn't even give up my Big Horn for a Tradesman. The newer Big Horns are pretty sparse compared to mine which came...

    Will I regret not getting the V8 even if I don’t tow? Debating which truck to get…

    Bought my Pentastar back in 2014 and couldn't be happier. 150K miles later and not a single issue. The only thing I miss honestly is the sound of a V8. I don't miss stopping at the gas station all the time. I've towed a modest trailer with it and didn't have an issue. Now that it's paid off I'm...

    2014 Ram 1500 - Unconnect Navigation

    I keep receiving these emails from Unconnect offering a discount of $175 to add navigation to my factory radio. I can't believe they want $420 after the discount just to add navigation to my truck. I might consider it if they were offering it to me for $175 but I don't think I'd ever add it for...

    SiriusXM Quality is Horrible

    I didn't notice how ****** it was until one day I was digging through the garage and found my old ipod. Since it's full of music I decided to just throw it in the truck for the hell of it. Well I connected it the other day when I was leaving work and nearly blew out my front speakers! That's how...

    new guy eTorque input

    Not sure what your towing needs are but I've had my Pentastar Ram for 5 years now and not a single problem all while getting between 20-22mpg. I use mine mostly for commuting and mainly highway driving. My daily mileage is 120 miles. I moved over to Ram after I had 2 Silverados with their awful...

    Considering buying a used 2018 Eco Diesel.

    Imagine me not caring about your opinion. Diesel is way better for the environment than the electric cars and pickups. So save those poor little children...drive a diesel!

    More EPA Diesel Exhaust Regulations?

    I read something recently where they are conducting studies on the use of DEF. Preliminary data suggests that DEF is more harmful to our environment than the exhaust emissions from the diesel engine without it.

    Would you pay monthly for certain features

    Nope. I recently bought my wife a loaded top trim Mazda CX-5 and we couldn't believe that it didn't come with remote start. We could've gotten it installed by the dealership. That would entail the usage of a separate key fob and a subscription service. I said no to that mess. I bought an...

    Considering buying a used 2018 Eco Diesel.

    I do love my Pentastar. Just rolled over 130K and not a single issue. I do all the regular maintenance myself. I don't tow or haul anything. I prefer driving a truck for my daily driving. After my Chevy AFM motor blew up I was done with that technology garbage so I chose this truck. I think the...

    Now that would be nice.

    Know the "Enemy"

    I'd buy one tomorrow if they would offer one in their top trim (LTZ/SLT) option. I use my truck more for commuting than anything else because I love trucks and never been a huge fan of cars. I've always wanted a single cab short bed truck but every one of the manufacturers assume that if you're...

    Leveling by lowering the rear.

    Obviously you're not running stock wheels and tires. What are you riding on? I'm looking to do this same mod to my 2014 but using the stock 20" wheels. I originally was going to level it by lifting the front like everyone else does but since I don't tow or go off-road I think lowering it will...
