    Purchasing a extended warranty, yes / no?

    Just my $0.02 here, but something I never thought of before actually made my mind up that I would purchase extended warranty from now on. 2 winters ago, my thermostat went out (it's a bit more involved nowadays with sensors etc) and my truck was down for 9 weeks while waiting for the...

    Steering wheel clicking. 2019 2500

    Yeah mine was more of a click that you could feel in the steering wheel. Seemed to only do it while moving the wheel slightly at slower speeds. Almost felt "loose" if that makes any sense? Sent from my SM-G950W using Tapatalk

    Steering wheel clicking. 2019 2500

    I had this clicking in my steering, last year. Might not be the same as reported here, but they originally replaced the steering column, and when that didnt work they replaced the steering gear. That fixed it! Noise/feel never came back. Sent from my SM-G950W using Tapatalk

    Ram offers

    See this is what I would assume as well! I dont think anyone will be paying anything even close to MSRP to get the 0% financing. It just isn't going to happen. Sent from my SM-G950W using Tapatalk

    Ford F-150 versus Dodge Ram 1500

    I love threads like these! Sheer entertainment value that can't be beat! I have one of each (sort of). I have a 2014 Ram 2500 6.4 Laramie. It is a great truck that I occasionally tow a 7k trailer with. It has been a decent truck, but not without issues. I've had 3 axle joints replaced, all...

    Anyone else dealing RAM backorder

    Last winter my truck was at the dealer for 9 weeks. Waiting on a back ordered thermostat. They treated me right and had me in a rental for the entire time (I have the extended gold warranty). But 9 weeks?? Sent from my SM-G950W using Tapatalk

    Wash your Ram or let alone for a few days

    My truck gets its once per year wash in the spring. That's it. I dont do any off roading with it, but the rain seems to do a pretty good job every so often. This truck has seen 5 nasty Canadian winters, and gets a Krown treatment every year. Looks alright? Sent from my SM-G950W using Tapatalk

    If you could have ANY truck, what would it be.

    Extended warranty or not?

    My extended warranty (gold - here in Canada 7 years/160,000km) paid for itself this winter. Thermostat went out, was on backorder for 9 weeks. Warranty paid for the rental (1500 classic 4x4) for the entire time. The rental bill alone more than paid for the cost of the warranty. I've had other...

    Draglink recall

    I hope not! I just had this done, got new tires at the same time. I'll be a little upset if my brand new tires get wrecked! Sent from my SM-G950W using Tapatalk

    A bit of a rant

    Good question, mine was warranty so I wasn't going to mess around, but these thermostats seem to be quite an involved unit compared to the ones from days gone by. Maybe one of our resident techs might know? Sent from my SM-G950W using Tapatalk

    A bit of a rant

    Ha ha yeah that would have been a good one! Like I said, not sure what I was expecting, but it would have been really nice if they had at least made an effort after having my truck for so long? Sent from my SM-G950W using Tapatalk

    A bit of a rant

    Wow, that's insane! W in the ever living F is going on with that part? It's a thermostat for crying out loud, not a lunar navigation system! I guess I should consider myself lucky that it was only 9 weeks? Ha ha ha I feel your pain though, hopefully it does not take until September for you...

    A bit of a rant

    Little bit of an update. As I posted initially, my truck went in the shop on January 19 of this year. Well I finally got the call yesterday that it was completed. New thermostat installed. I think that was almost 9 weeks? Not sure what I was expecting, but when I went to pick it up, service...

    A bit of a rant

    April 26th? Holy crap. I'm at 7 weeks now. Still below freezing here so I don't think I'll be driving mine just yet. It seems to me they could change manufacturers etc in less time. I mean if some are available in the US doesn't that mean they are out there? Sent from my SM-G950W using Tapatalk
