    Oil filter removal on hemi

    I tried the oil utter and couldn’t get it to seat. Not enough room. Went back to the gallon sandwich bag.

    Fuel Sensor Fail... should I fix it?

    Mine has been acting like it's bipolar for the past couple of months. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't. Sometimes it reads full, sometimes it reads empty. I religiously fill up every Wednesday and Sunday. I don't need to be that OCD but I'm not going to end up running out of gas and...

    Best Dash Cam For the Money?

    Back in 2021 I bought the VAVA Dual Dash Cam from Amazon. Works awesome. No screen but does have front and back cameras and works off a wifi app. Knock on wood, I haven't had any scary moments, which is strange living in NJ... I have it plugged into the aux plug between the seats behind the...

    see the new concept electric ram

    After watching the big reveal video, all I can say is... nope! Can you imagine how much all that fancy techno crap is going to cost? Not to mention the fact that you'll have to have a PHD in computer science just to change a tire.

    what STATION YOU GETTING YOUR GASOLINE FROM (top tier or no)

    I work at Lakehurst as well. Amoco actually got the contract for the base gas station now. To be honest, I can’t wait until I can see NJ in my rear view mirror for the last time.

    what STATION YOU GETTING YOUR GASOLINE FROM (top tier or no)

    I go to the base gas station on Ft Dix. In NJ it's probably the ONLY place you can pump your own gas.

    Cleanest way removing oil filter

    I've bought the XL Oil Udder and was planning on using it last oil change but I need to get a hose to attach to it. Seems like it'll work well, along with the tried and true zip lock bag to actually get the filter the rest of the way out once it's drained.

    Need some help figuring out what to do for aux switches

    I have the aux switch panel installed from 4th Gen Electronics but the cover for my fuse box fell off some time ago. Anybody have any idea as to where I might be able to get a replacement? I emailed 4th Gen several times about a year ago but never could get a replacement cover.

    New guy question...

    This is what I use. Easy to install, easy to remove. You can set it however far back you need it. Comes with a cargo net. https://www.autoanything.com/hitch-bed-accessories/69A6220A0A0.aspx

    ROLL-UP INFO: FOTA 18.11.x & uC D/L 18.45.01 SW Update 13-17 RA3/Vp3-NA & Ra4 VP4-NA

    I'll give that a try. The guy I spoke with at the dealership didn't sound very confident. I would've thought that updating in increments would be much easier on the system than dumping a full fledged massive upgrade, but then again, I don't put much stock in my local dealership... Thanks for the...

    ROLL-UP INFO: FOTA 18.11.x & uC D/L 18.45.01 SW Update 13-17 RA3/Vp3-NA & Ra4 VP4-NA

    I just called Uconnect to find out about this mysterious thumb drive they send out for updates. I currently have version 16.16.13 and their website said I had to get updated at the dealership. The dealership had told me that Uconnect was sending me a thumb drive. Uconnect told me I had to go to...

    Merry Christmas To Me......

    A buddy of mine loaned his Tacoma out to a guy we work with to do a side job. The guy brought it back without putting any gas in it and a week later he received notices in the mail for unpaid tolls crossing the bridge going into Philly twice. I think the fine is $50 a pop, plus the toll. Friends...

    Does anyone make like a cargo net or something for the bed?

    I got this at AutoAnything.com. Works awesome, easy to put in, take out, holds groceries pretty good. You can order it with or without the cargo net. Sorry, not a great pic. Crappy day. https://www.autoanything.com/hitch-bed-accessories/69A6220A0A0.aspx

    Window visors

    I have Weather Tech in channel on my Ram. My wife had the same on her Jetta but didn't like them. Took forever for them to seat properly in the channel on her car but I haven't had any issues. Had them for a few years now.
